    So, first post from a relative newbie here. I just inherited a pair of old KEF 101 SP1122s from my dad. They need the usual work for KEFs of this age (recapping/crossover rebuild) but assuming that can be done, I would really like to use them. The question is what receiver or amp I need to...

    According to the previous owner it was working but suddenly they could hear pops from time to time via the speakers until one day there was a very loud pop and it stopped functioning properly. I tested it and it seems like the problem is limited to the pre amp as the power amp is working fine if...

    Volume control gets too loud too quick - mods?

    I have a NAD L40 that I've overhauled. I love it to death - it's such a charming little thing. CD player, tuner, preamp, and amplifier all in one classy little package the size of a standard CD deck. It's no slouch either, its sound quality is what sold me on British amplification as a whole...

    Transistor identification question?

    I have a NAD receiver that while in the schematic shows a particular transistor with one identifier, the label on the part shows something different. Are these two functionally equivalent/interchangeable or is this a problem with the service manual being different then production?

    NAD 7155 weak channel. Any ideas where to start? *SOLVED*

    I just brought home an NAD 7155, a big brother to my 7140. It's in really good cosmetic shape. Plugged it in and while the right channel is playing as it should, the left is lacking in any low end. Almost sounds a bit shrill and flat if that makes sense. It responds to changes to the tone...

    Upgrade from NAD 3020i

    I have used a NAD 3020i as my amp the latest 10 years. I have not found any amp that can match its details and treble. Though, since trying a NAD 319 dedicated power amp in my system I realise that the 3020i lacks definition and power in the lower frequencies. I wonder if anyone has a...
