Bonjour,
Voilà un bel ensemble qui doit être très musicale.j’ai moi même le 3020B et il était associé à des infinity RS 5000…assez bluffant !😳l’ampli de puissance me faisait rêver mais pas les moyens nécessaires 😕 aujourd’hui j’ai le T 754 qui marche très bien mais, honnêtement, je préfère un peu le son du 3020🤔 dans un autres registres,j’ai mis des câbles ” hifi câbles & compagnie” super maxitrans et je dois bien avouer que j’ai fait un bon qualitatif non négligeable !👍 Le silence de fonctionnement le paraissait une donnée plus ésotérique qu’autre chose mais j’ai vite changé d’avis !!😋

In reply to Louise Boucher. Ha... That's one to watch eBay and Craiglist for, and perhaps put in a request at a local audio tech to keep an eye open.

In reply to Don Montgomery. NAD makes great stuff. When I want to drive something requiring more juice than the 3020 puts out, I hook up the NAD 2600 power amp and everything is golden.

August,

Depends on the models.

Can you provide a list?

Best,

I have just inherited a full NAD system, comprising of Turntable, tuner, amp, tape deck and CD player.

Does anyone know of its sale value?

I am based in South Africa, and we dont have much of a market for these items.

Reach out to me on: augustkotzenberg@gmail.com

Thanks

NAD 917 Suround sound pre amp / tuner, is a very, very sweet stereo pre-amp.

Have tried many other, newer, ‘better’ pre amps. Keep going back to this one – even bought a second / spare one, just in case!

This and a big NAD power amp light up our huge Mirage M3-si’s with ease, and beauty : ))

In reply to rl1856. My understanding is it's not a difficult piece to work on, so any reputable vintage repair shop should be able to do it.

In reply to Bob Erickson. In these cases AudioKarma is your friend. Ask on there.

In reply to Robert Champon. The Power Envelope stuff is excellent. I more-often-than-not run the 3020 as pre-amp through a 2600 power amp and that combination sings!
