I've owned the 302, C320BEE, C325BEE, and now the C372. The 300-series are great amps at the price, warm and lovely to listen to. But the C372 is a huge leap up in transparency, and of course with more power it can drive more difficult loads. My upgrade happened for very similar reasons and with similar budget restrictions--and it's worked great with Vandersteens and now Spendors. A lot of amp for the price.
NAD Integrated Comparison
Can anyone offer some experience of differences in sound quality between NAD's C series integrateds?
The C-320bee to C-352 to C-372?
Obviously the amplifier section is different but what about the preamplifier section? I owned a 320bee at one time and found it very musical but lacking in transparency. Are the C-352, C-372 much different/better in that regard or another?
Are the newer C-325/6bee, C-355bee C-375bee much better than the older models?
Right now I'm wanting to drive some Dynaudio Contour 1.3MkIIs but may change things up in the future. Anything else that you'd recommend in the $4-700 price range for them? Heard Naim Nait and Plinius come up a lot in the threads here but they are a little pricier than I'd prefer to go. I could be swayed however. ;) Anything you know of with tone controls(I can hear the snickering already)? How do you think a Bryston B60 would match up?
Thanks.
