NAD?


Kenny Burkhart
 

I'm sure you guys have heard of NAD stereo equipment? Well, what
kind of equipment is it, exactly? Pretty good stuff? I'm not
looking at purchasing thousands of dollars worth of equipment,
however, I want the best I can get with what I have in my wallet.

I am still considering SAE ("02" Series), but I am also checking out
some of the newer equipment on the market today. Can anybody shed
some light on NAD for me?

Thanks,
Kenny

PS: I thank everyone for all of the previous help.


 

NAD is probably one of the best companies
making equipment that is way above par.

Dear Kenny,
Please be aware that NAD gear is made in TAIWAN and for the most part, might
be considered the high end of the "low end". That is, you get what you pay
for. When gear is priced dirt cheap, something's got to give. I'm not trying
to knock NAD but if you really want audiophile quality, then I wouldn't
recommend this stuff. After all, it is designed by Asians, and when in
history have the Orientals ever made anything that sounded that good? Not
yet anyway. Maybe Accuphase, if you can afford it. Also, once in a while,
Sony engineers manage to come up with something clever and the same for
Kenwood. But this is rare and you have to know, engineering wise, what was
going on. This obviously, is beyond that capability of the layman. If I were
recommending something alongs these lines I would tell you to consider Rotel
much more than NAD. Even though Rotel gear for the most part is all made in
TAIWAN also, their entire engineering is located in Tokyo, and I have been
to there place and have had intimate relationships with their engineers over
the years. They are a pretty good dedicated crew.
