What a cracking Amp!
For the money, this has to be one of THE Hi-Fi bargains of the decade. Following up form the NAD C-350, this is a gutsy, well defined and well balanced amp. While providing the low end grunt when required, it never becomes overbearing. When playing something like Fatboy Slim's "Right here, Right now", the response is fast and punchy, portraying the music in a very dynamic fashion.
The treble response is just as special, hitting the highs of the all important crecendos almost effortlessly.
Never sounding strained or compressed (except at very high volumes), the sheer control this amp has is quite amazing. The result is an exciting listen that really makes the most out of any music collection.
And if you are obsessed with bursting your ear drums before you hit the age of 40, do not be fooled by the modest output rating. Trust me, it goes quite loud.
After running in (make sure not to judge the sound your system makes straight away, they do need to we "worn in" a little"), and being connected to a decent pair of speakers, you can't go far wrong with an Amplifier like this.

- 18/03/01 There's not really much else that can be said. Depending on what sort of music you listen to, you should buy your Hi-Fi to match. The NAD is a great all round amp that can handle all different sorts of music, and bring out the best in all of them. It's easy to spend serious amounts of money on something that will give you amazing clarity of sound, but if you're going to be playing it at loud volumes, much of the subtlety is lost.
For my varied musical tastes, the NAD does eevrything it should, making Rock music gutsy and bold, dance music punchy and exciting, while still being able to make classical music sound just how it should.
For £300, it's not worth rushing into an impulsive buy. The most important thing is to listen to any piece of Hi-Fi equipment before purchase with YOUR music and YOUR setup. Just because the sound is to somebody's taste, doesn't necessarily mean that it will be to yours. |

- 18/03/01 Try expanding on the amount of information and detail. Its £300 quid so you need to convince me a little bit more. Im happy to upgrade your rating with a little more information. |
