    I'm assuming this would be a nice upgrade over my Parasound P/HP-850. Anyone have any thoughts?

    Other equipment in the system:
    LSi9's, Carver TFM-55, Rotel RCD 1072

    I've owned various NAD preamps dating back to 1984 (1020a). I have never had a lick of trouble with them. Now, the adcoms, protons, sherwood, that's another story.

    Payment sent.

    chumlie: to pm click on PSOVLSK and choose Private Message. I think you have to have 10 posts to pm, but it might be 25. I'll either be selling the Parasound, a B&K PT-5, or this NAD

    Arrived yesterday packed to withstand a drop from a plane...or better yet a trip from Maryland to Texas via UPS:mrgreen: I also think it was in a little better condition than described. Thanks Mike.

    Finally got around to getting it hooked up about 30 minutes ago and I must say this is sweet little piece. I'm listening to the Pink Floyd remasters Sampler CD and it sounds awesome. This one will be in my rack for a while.

    There will more than likely be a Parasound P/HP 850 for sale soon...or possibly a B&K PT-5.
