This is a good value and sound quality vintage receiver. Some NAD years are better than others. This one is very useful and there are a few ways to run it. I think for $100 these represent good value. It has a cool 80s Blade Runner aesthetic. I am using it bi-amped for now with a sub amplifier. But it sounds just fine full range with a pair of Markaudio7P full range monitors. Any shortcomings would be revealed with these monitors. The 25 watt power rating sounds much more weighty. The top end is not too forward or harsh and you can listen for hours. The phono preamp s good. The tone controls and loudness are useful at low listening levels or for adding weight to poorly mixed recordings. So you can use as a preamp or as an integrated. The tuner is good. Will probably invest in having this recapped and tuner rebiased. But everything is working fine so no dire hurry.Read full review

While powered speakers and multi-channel home theatre systems have all but replaced the traditional stereo receiver, many of us still find two channels to be all we want and the NAD receivers deliver audiophile quality sound consistently and reliably year after year. Most of these older NAD receivers are still working perfectly because they were built to last. No need to replace your receiver every few years with NAD. Getting back into LPs? This one has a phono preamp built in.
