Gunna pickup some elac debut 6.2 speakers to give a try. If YOU had the receivers below to choose from which would work best and why :) any suggestions?
Nad 7140
Cambridge audio azur 540r
I recently bought a NAD 7080, but it has an issue.
When first powered up, the volume level seems to be fine, but after a few seconds it drops significantly, maybe around 50%. If I power it off and back on, it does the same thing.
I can't find any resources to see what may be happening, anyone...
Hey all,
Sorry for the general title. Just in need of some advice - feel free to be as brutally honest as you can haha
Had a Luxman LV-102 integrated amplifier. Gave it back to the guy who sold it to me a couple years ago, as i could never get it to work right.
Left his shop with an NAD 7155...
Hi,
I have a NAD 3155 that has worked very well over the years. Now though the left channel has stopped working and I thought I'd give it a shot at diagnosing it.
I have opened it and cleaned it with air and electronics spray and it helped with crackeling in the audio knob, but still just...
Two different amps -> crossover filter -> speakers ???
Hi all, I am wondering if this connections can be done:
Receiver --2 x RCA-> NAD 3020i -2 x speaker cable--> Post amp crossover filter -2 x speaker cables-> Speakers
\--2 x RCA-> NAD 319 -2 x speaker cable --/
I hope my...
Hi all,
First, my apologies if I'm in the wrong forum. It's been many, many years since I've visited the site. Good to be back. A general question about repair and value. I'll try and keep this short.
5+ years ago I purchased the gear listed in the headline (minus the Luxman - that was a...
Hi all,
I have a NAD 7240PE with a tuner problem and was hoping for some help troubleshooting.
The amp all works expect for the FM band. I get no sound and not auto seek or station lock.
The AM side seems to work (I can pick up stations). But the seek is a bit touchy.
I thought it might be...
Hi all,
I have a decision to make. I'm in position of two NAD amps. I want to keep one, but am finding it hard to decide.
So, let's see what you guys think.
Which NAD amp should I keep?
NAD 7130 or NAD 7240PE
Thanks
Good morning,
I picked up an old NAD 3125 integrated and 4125 tuner yesterday. The stock feet are missing; they were replaced with square, clear rubber, stick-on feet that are starting to peel off. I'd like to go with stock style replacements, or something similar.
So...anyone with a 3125...
Hello,
First post here - thanks for reading! :)
I've bought a used NAD 106 preamp. I know it's nice, but not this one - is hums all the time when connect to amp or active speakers. Sound like 50hz hum from the psu. Everything looks very nice on the pcb and no visual errors to be seen, the pcb...
Here's a story about how a recap job on an old NAD receiver got out of hand.
This 7240PE has been doing duty as a preamp only. A while ago I decided to pursue optimizing the preamp section by the usual means: improving power filtering and signal coupling, updating op-amps where applicable. But...
Hi I have been asking this question more then once but can‘t find a solution. When I turn on my Apple TV 3 and 4 hooked up with HDMI cable to source 2 on my receiver NAD T748’s playing through an HDMI cable to the TV I am getting no sound until I select a different source, an example I have to...
Hi all! I’ve browsed these forums for awhile finding answers to my various questions as I attempt to put together a great system for music without destroying my bank account. This is my first post, and I’m unsure if I’m posting in the right place, but here goes!
I have an Nad 7155 with a pair...
Hey gang, NAD's making low level intermittent static in one channel. Feels like a noisy transistor. Been sitting on bench for awhile but memory serves it wasn't input nor volume dependent. Before I get serious I thought I'd reach out to see if anyone could help this chimp brained AKr.
Thanks
Carl
HI all,
Problem:
My phono stage on my NAD 7130 amp is quite a bit quieter then my radio (FM) section. So when I go from phono to tuner - I could damage my speakers with the jump in volume. (My turntable is MM and the amp is set to that)
Is there any way to turn down the radio gain in the amp...
Hi folks,
I have a NAD 7030 receiver from 1977. I just had it refurbished and it sounds amazing. I’d appreciate advice on what speakers to pair with it. It only puts out 30 watts per channel, so I assume I’ll need to get very efficient speakers. My budget is roughly $1,500 for a pair. The room...
NAD 3020 amp
NAD 4020 tuner
Majority Robinson DAB/FM/Internet tuner
NAD C516BEE CD player
NAD HP50 headphones
JVC SPE300 speakers (x4 in a dynaquad arrangement)
Wharfedale SW150 subwoofer.
(and a Murphy A92 all-band radio from 1940)
Greetings,
Hope this is the right place for this.. I'm just getting into recapping (and occasionally repairing) vintage gear. I recently received this unbelievably mint NAD 3400 and wanted to share some photos of the inside and out. It has beautiful white circuit boards. It's really hard for me...
Hello All,
Need some advice; I found a pair of Infinity Qb's at the curb-side store...initial look is they're in pretty good shape, then I tested them with mixed results. I took them apart and discovered they've been WAY overdriven to the point that the plastic controls plate melted inside from...
I am not an audiophile but definitely enjoy good music and good music systems. I listen to classic rock, classical music, and jazz in that order. I have read and appreciated the incredible knowledge base here at AK and need some help in putting together an upgraded system, maybe utilizing in...
NAD 7020i FM buzzes loudly. Started happened periodically and now does this forever. Moving away from digital sources does not help. Amplifier and other functionality otherwise OK.Not sure if unit was ever re-capped (suspect not). Any thoughts where to start?
Hello everyone,
I’m looking for a second hand integrated amp and I have narrowed the options to:
- NAD D7050, first generation (no phono option)
- Peachtree audio Decco 65, also the first generation
I live in Mexico and the reason for narrowing to these two options is because of what’s...
Hi,
Maybe somebody has seen this problem with NAD 7220PE (or other) and can help me.
When I use my turntable with this amplifier - left speaker is less powerful right after I turn the amp on. I need to turn balance knob by 1/4 to center the sound. What's even more interesting - after...
