Although I really like NAD (I had a 317 for years) I think you would be better of looking for something else. NAD is very good in delivering loads of power and stability for the money, but I don't think their pre amps (or the pre in an integrated) are up there with te best. But isn't there an opportunity to listen before you buy? Compare the NAD combo with your own speakers to an integrated roughly comparable in price, and go for the amp you prefer.
