NAD C325 or 326Bee efficient enough for PSB towers
Bryan,NAD & PSB are great choices. I like David the owner at DMC Electronics. He is a great guy and his prices are better than many other places.In my experience, Dynaudio & PSB are probably the only two companies that consistently produce... 
NAD vs. Cambridge Audio
CA edges out on NAD on vocal. NAD performs better than CA in the high and bass department.CA looks better but does not have pre-out which may or may not be an issue with you. NAD does have pre-out which I like but they are bland on the outside. I ... 
Fixing a Broken NAD C320BEE
Agreed with all the Gs here. Stay away from those Ebay pickers. These are people who would do anything to try and sell you junks that they dig up from someone else's dumpster. You could get a used NAD C315BEE which is almost the same as the C320BE... 
Review: Harbeth Super HL-5 Speaker
The Harbeth Super HL-5 good size woofers would make it easier to integrate with a power sub if you really want to run your speakers full-range. I am assuming that Ryder is living in England and I am not sure if you can purchase quality yet afforda... 
Review: Harbeth Super HL-5 Speaker
These old-fashion Harbeth monitors are the way to go.This is because that is.I wonder if Saymir's ever heard of the stock phrase "different folks different strokes" and that "You will have compromises in the field of speaker design." to issue such... 
NAD C355BEE Owners - Advice Needed
That's the down side of buying used gears.You think you got the savings with used gears but then again it depends. Most sellers here are honest and quite courteous but some apparently are not that nice or sometimes are too lazy to find things for ... 
Rotel vs NAD
Mr. MilpaiI agreed with you. Rotel sounds a bit thin at the bottom for me. The bass on the some Rotel amps lack that pitch or definition to my ears.I am running in a NAD 326BEE. So far with jazz and classical and pop I have no complaints on the pe... 
Preamp upgrade for NAD 320BEE
I am happy for you. Save up the $$$ for a decent pre-amp or at least a used C162 
Rotel vs NAD
Mr. James Lipski brought up a great issue. Speaker selection is something that you have to seriously take into account here. NAD budget integrated amps tend to sound a bit warmer than the other brands as mentioned by Mr. Milpai but I used to own a... 
Preamp upgrade for NAD 320BEE
DavidTry the NAD C-162 preamp. For the $$$, the C-162 is decent. I know many people who use the NAD C-162 pre-amp with power amps that are 4 or 5 times more expensive than the NAD pre-amp in their audio setup. A pair of pre-amp jumper cable is a c... 
Totem model 1: woofer rubber stiff -- Slight buzz
Call Totem and ask them how much that they would charge you. If they charge you less than $500 to replace the woofers, it is a fair deal. You got the sound that you can comfortably live with for another 5-7 years, provided the tweeters do not go o... 
which budget integrated amp Rotel, NAD or other
Usher is a good speaker company. I was very impressed with their budget product the S-520 with an audition at a local Usher dealer. Usher even uses quality drivers (Scanspeak and Seas) in some of their high end models.Are reviews helpful?Through s... 
Which Totem Speaker - 12'x14' room
Forest and Hawk can easily produce solid and transient bass down to the 40 cycle or lower. However, IMO, many Totem speakers would perform better with jazz, acoustic guitar, and vocal. That is the focus of the designers at Totem.Forest may be the ... 
NAD Integrated Comparison
I purchased my 326BEE based on a review of another kind fella here. So far, I am content with my purchase. For $400 plus sales tax, you have a no BS amp with several discrete components inside and 2 separate power sub pre-outs to boot which is a n... 
upgrade path from Dynaudio 52SE
You should try and pull the Dynaudio 52SE further away from the back and side walls as noted above. Listen to this for at least 2-3 weeks and see if this improves.Keep a log any time you walk your Dynaudio 52SE around the room.If you have tried ev...
