That's another one I've never heard of. I see Amazon has it for about $170. What do you like about yours? Where does it fall short?
Thx!

As part of the NAD line, they're long in the tooth so I got a special from my dealer, around a hundred bucks (this was 2 years ago). I don't think you need to spend $170. Used would be fine plus a dealer might be wanting to deal, like mine.
As set up in my system with an RP6 and 2M Black, it sounds surprisingly spacious, big soundstage which I'm a sucker for. The only A/B I've done is with a Rogue Stealth Magnum, nla, and I liked the NAD better. The Rogue is now back at Rogue to see if they can make it all better.
Why not give her an integrated or receiver with a built in stage.
Or, is she an audiophile?

She grew up listening to my stereo, so she has good taste in gear, if not in music. (sez a dad).
Right now she has a decent Peachtree amp, but no vinyl capability. Hence the gift.
thx!

When I had my Peachtree NOVA, the NAD fed it phono.
