In Reply to: REVIEW: NAD 325BEE Integrated Amplifier (SS) posted by boland7214@aol.com on April 2, 2007 at 14:17:57:
I forgot to write when I posted my "review" of The NAD 325BEE that I replaced the "jumpers" on the back with "jumpers" from Tara Labs. I think that helps the sound become more "there" or "more palpable" and provides somewhat better imaging.
Follow Ups:
I have replaced the jumpers on my NAD C352 with Signal Cable custom jumpers. For the initial 3-4 days, the sound was a bit thin. But after the cable burned in, the sound stage opened up and the instruments seem to be better localized. The overall sound has improved - especially when I put on a SACD - mostly on the midrange.
Do you think Signal Cable jumpers are better than Tara jumpers?
I was listening to XM radio on AOL just now. I listened to the "voice" of a 1950's male singer. The voice seemed "flat" somehow...with not very much "palpable presence". I decided to run the radio through my CAT SL-1 Reference Mk II pre-amp. OK, I relunctantly admit it...there IS more "palpable presence" to the voice using the CAT SL-1 Mk II pre-amp---a sort of "it is here in my room" quality. Dang...I HATE to admit the above! It is subtle. Is it "worth" the extra bread to get the SAME music but with a "it is here" or "you are there" quality? That's a question only you can answer. So I have a $2000 pre-amp mated with a $337 power amp. Does that make sense? :o)
