| Looking to get started. please help Rootsrockreggae, did you read this review on the NAD? Also, here is a review for the Integra version of the Onkyo. My understanding of the "Audiophiles Welcome?" section at the end of the Integra review is that the unit is a good choice for a simp... | |
| Looking to get started. please help But wouldn't the turntable sound better if I connected through a phono input?A phono input provides additional gain and RIAA equalization for records. Your turntable has this built in, but can be switched out to use a phono input, like on the Onky... | |
| Looking to get started. please help I was definitely thinking a pair of Tekton Mini Lore for speakers.No doubt the NAD will sound much better than the Onkyo, and the Onkyo does not have bass management, only a subwoofer pre out. You could step up to the NAD C326 to get a sub pre out... | |
| Looking to get started. please help An integrated amp would be a much better choice than a receiver.Can you use speakers larger than the PSB's?What is the brand/model of your turntable?What types of music and which source do you use the most? | |

| Rogue Audio Sphynx and Martin Logan Odysseys Jimbreit, thanks for sharing the additional info for your system setup. One problem you have is not using the spikes on the speakers. Using the spikes will definitely tighten the bass. Read the section, “Solid Footing” in your speakers manual here... | |
| Rogue Audio Sphynx and Martin Logan Odysseys There is no doubt that opinions about damping factor will vary. In the past, I did believe that a very high damping factor would be beneficial to control the bass, however, now I think these high specifications will have very little, if anything, ... | |
| How can a 30 watt, 28 year old amp sound more Bokfudo, since the NAD has pre out and main in, you could try pre out from the NAD to the other amp, and also, the other preamp to main in on the NAD. This would help determine if the difference is really the amp. It may be the preamp. | |
