    NAD D 3020 vs Pioneer A20 vs Onkyo 9010

    Thoughts please... is the NAD D 3020 a significant step up from the Pioneer Elite A20 and/or the Onkyo 9010? Any differences in sound quality you can elaborate on? Thanks.

    Any NAD C368 owners?

    I'm looking to get a new integrated amp and came across the new series of integrated amps from NAD. In particular the C368 seems to have all the features I would want and need such as phono and digital inputs plus an output for a sub. I've owned the NAD D3020 previously and thought it was a...

    NAD 705 pops and cracks

    Hi, beginner here, so please bear with me! :) I have a NAD 705 receiver which when switched on makes fairly loud "pop" noises on the left channel, and the right channel most of the time only comes on after shortly cranking up the volume knob, then crackles quite a bit. After playing for about...

    NAD 3100 VS NAD 3150

    Hey everyone! I've had a tough time finding some insight and user experience between these two NAD amps. I'm currently running Pioneer HPM 100s and if I remember correctly they're 50 watts per channel. Right now I'm trading an amp and have been deciding between a used NAD 3100 and a used 3150...

    Problems with my NAD C356BEE integrated amp

    I was looking to improve on my Yamaha RX-797 receiver, in my 2-channel system. It had to be remote controllable and be able to handle my efficient but power-loving Klipsch Epic CF-4s. Always a fan of NAD, I thought one of their integrated amps would do the trick. I nearly pulled the trigger on a...

    I'm in need of some good advice, fellow AK denizens! A few months ago, I replaced my nice version 3 Klipsch Epic CF-3 speakers with nicer version 1 Epic CF-4s in cherry (recapped and lightly modded). Short of a streaming music source and maybe a standalone phono preamp, I felt my nice 2ch...
