    @billbillw Thanks. Was hoping to check it out today but so far the seller hasn't gotten back to me.


    Unfortunately, that most likely means the seller has been swamped with responses and it's already been "dibbed" by someone ahead of you. It was a low price for all three.

    No speakers connected, zero on the amplifier volume. It is a no load test. Just powered on for a few minutes at least.

    I don't think you need to power the amp on to check for common ground.

    We were talking about checking DC offset, not common ground. The NAD C372 is undoubtedly a common ground design. I think the seller was confused because NAD doesn't give a grounded plug. It is a floating ground, but it is still common ground.

    Gotcha, I must have skipped over a post or two.
