A friend of mine just purchased a new Nad pre-pro. He can not hook it up as yet because he is awaiting new speakers that are arriving in two months. I graciously offered that he bring it over to see if it works and how it compares to my old 950. The challenge was presented but it was declined as not a fair test. Powering his Nad with my outlaw 770. Would it make a difference? Anyway I told him I would be more than happy to bring the prepro over once he hooks everything up. What a chicken?

I'd want to get it out of the box and put it through its paces at the very least, and what amp is used shouldn't make too much difference. What amp will he be using, since he's apparently not using a 770?

He is using the Nad amp 140x7. He is quivering right now

- I'd let him bring pre-pro and amp together if he already has both.

If you use the same amplifier, source, cables and speakers for an a/b test, than it is a fair fight.

Well, not really a fair fight because NAD is not that great (in my opinion)!!! Tell him you'll use his amp or switch back and fourth between both of your amps.

(N-ormally A-lways D-efective)

it's funny Spatula, but i have a NAD CD Player with more than 15 years on it and works perfect, in fact it's so old that it have trouble with some CD-R media type, cause when i buy it, the CD-R doesn't exist.

Than you are one of the lucky ones JulCat. When I bought my Adcom set up in the early/mid 90's, I looked at NAD and just was not impressed with the quality or sound. Infact, there were many audio stores pulling the equipment, mainly amplifiers and integrated amplifiers, because of quality control problems at the time. I actually have heard good things about their CD and DVD players, when they work. :rolleyes: lol (j/k)

I have to admit that, in fact that's the cause who stop me from buying more from NAD, now i'm glad i found outlaw,
!!!!outlaw we need a DVD Universal Player!!!!!!

YOU HEARD THE MAN, WHERE IS IT?!?!?!

I'll third that idea. A DVD universal player from Outlaw would complete my 950/770/LFM1 Outlaw system. If it doesn't come before CES though I'll have to pick up an Arcam DV-79.
