Once owned an NAD 1700/2600A and these were nice pieces of equipment. In my experience, I've found that receivers will not as good as seperates. So, if you decide on the NAD's you'll have to look into another IC and you might catch the (nearly never-ending) audio upgrade fever. I'd say, Go for the NAD's. Cheers!
Advice Please...H/K or NAD?
My first post here...I need some advice. Within the past year I purchased a Harman Kardon 3490 2 channel receiver. I am done with home theatre, and this H/K piece seemed to be reviewed very well in all forums. I have been using it with a pair of Klipsch KG 4.2 speakers and have been pleased with the set up. That was until I came upon a used NAD 2400 THX amp and a 1600 tuner/preamp, which sounds awesome as well, and I am at a stalemate. I know, the best advice is keep 'em both! But that is not an option, so which set up would you keep and why? Thanks!
