Stay away from the nad

Yogiboy,

Hell no! That's pollution. That grey box deserves 1000 tons hydraulic press
and what's left of should be sprayed with the Alien's blood.

I THINK THAT I SHOULD. In past five years three "units" broke down: C275, C356 x 2. and always few months after warranty expired. I'm listening  music on a very moderate levels. How should I call it, by accident?

m-db,
nad is very ignorant. I did E-mail the nad and placed two calls and so far nothing. 

NAD / New Audio Disposal

Try C356 with the ZU Wylde (well broken in / 150 hours) short Interconnects
for Pre / Amp. You will like the sound. Much more details

Yes, It's quite a step up but what else to buy. I tried Parasound Halo and it just didn't sound right. C356 with the right Pre/Amp interconnects sounded better then Halo or I just like the nad sound despite the reliability. Another option is Belles Aria Integrated but I am not familiar with the Aria's sound. If it has Nad's dynamic I would buy Aria right away.
And yes, I have PSB Synchrony One B bookshelf speaker that I really like.
I listened the PSB with the Accuphase E-470 and that was it. Just perfect sound. I just hope that E-270 has similar sonic signature as the E-470. My friend who owns the Accuphase told me that E-470 besides the more power has more 3D sound but the E-270 already provide very nice sound and that I would notice the difference in sound only with the high end speakers.

As per PSB Specifications It's 6 Ohms nominal, 4 Ohms minimum.
You actually posted Specs. for the Synchrony One but towers. They dip down to 2.6 Ohms.

chilycat,

I am just curious, how would you call 3 amplifiers from the same manufacturer that failed a couple of months after the warranty expired.
I call it disposal electronics. I mentioned C275 and two C356's, but I forgot to mention M3 on which display went dead (but it did work). Five years ago
I paid $300.00 for the repair (replacement). The nad is relatively cheap compared to the other manufacturer and it has decent sound with the right
interconnects.Some people simply don't bother posting issues with the nad electronics. They just move on but I can bet you that every fifth owner of the nad gear had issues with their products. And yes, I call nad GARBAGE because I lost $3.000.00 in total. But there is another option. I will call nad the best manufacturer of the HI FI electronics if you are willing to cover my loss.

ivanj,

Yes please! I already contacted few Accuphase dealers and I am expecting
their phone calls on Monday.

donjr,
Of course. With the right interconnects nad can sound very good but their reliability is terrible. I live in New York. Service centers charge $150.00+per hour for their service plus parts, if necessary.
It is not normal that 3 amplifiers failed in five years with the moderate usage.

It meant to be advise not complaining. No help from nad.

Sorry for typo. "advice". Yes, I contacted nad and the first question was "is the unit still in warranty". When I said no I've got the answer "Sorry for the trouble". Any further conversation with them was over.
