I read this on another site


The OP said that he put together a 2nd system consisting of Nola Boxer speakers and a current NAD intergrated amp that cost 500.00. He said his first system consisted of Wilson Sasha speakers and a ARC ref-5 and a Ref-75. He claims as an experiment he hooked up the NAD amp to the Sasha's. He said in some ways the NAD sounded better than the ARC combination. I have never tried this experiment myself but I am really curious to try it.  Has anyone hear ever tried an experiment like this before?

Matter of fact- yes!

way back I had an amp- big, expensive, premier brand, that died, but fortunately, it was under warranty. Shipped it off for repairs.

while waiting for my amp back I took an unused NAD receiver I had (712?) and used it as an amp. I was shocked at how good the NAD sounded in that context. 
Consider that for a great deal of equipment, the single most important xpensive part is the case itself. 

Ever see a "full size" component then see the interior and notice hat 1/2 or more of the inside is empty space?
