    NAD 7220pe amp - power switch clean up

    Hi, I recently acquired this unit. Technically the amp board is the same design as model 3020 with a tuner added. It's got a couple of issues. When I initially plugged it in I heard a gargling sound coming from the transformer and later a thin line of smoke ;-) I narrowed the problem down to...

    NAD 3020A

    Hello, AK, I am new here as I am also new in electronics. Last month I got myself a Thorens TD150 MK1, a couple of KEF Q100s and as the title tells the NAD 3020A. This is my first audio related project. I have been researching on it for quite a while but there are still some things I can not...

    Starter Stereo

    New to the forum - first post! I'm interested in setting up a <$300 2-speaker stereo for my medium-sized bedroom. My main criteria is clear, full-range sound that I can crank up when I want (26yo male :D). Low maintenance is also a priority. I stream most my music from Spotify premium, but I'd...

    NAD model 200

    Hey guys, just wanted some general thoughts and to see if anyone had the service documents for this unit. Definitely a heavy unit, and doesn't look too hard to take apart. I just picked one up and would like to replace the small capacitors that like to go resistive, however I don't seem to be...

    Please Help Me With These Fuse Lamps....Before I Go Nuts

    What Amp? Sansui AU 517 or NAD 3031

    Hi all Wanting to make a secondary SS system. What amp would you recommend? Sansui AU 517 or NAD 3130? Those two are available nearby. I already have a tube based system but want to have a more flexible option in terms of genre capabilities and speakers matching. What do you guys think?

    NAD 2200PE DC Voltage Spike on Power Off

    NAD 7240PE Low Sound At Full Volume

    I am considering purchase of this entry level integrated amp. I am also looking at either PSB or Monitor Audio speakers (would consider other brands as well). Would anyone recommend the best speaker? What I mean is not to go too high or too low for this specific amp. On the other hand I also...

    Recommendation please...NAD 7100 or Nakamich TA-2A?

    If you have any interest in this amp at all, let me assure you that it is the best sounding integrated I have ever heard! Holy smokes what a surprise! The biggest surprise is how dynamic it is and how much bass presence it has. This is not a thin/sterile sounding lame class D amp. It has a...
