NAD processor issue, CEC problems.


Very strange.  NAD recommends optical connections for audio connections.  HUGE problems as this limits sound quality and defeats sound quality value of this processor.. this is only guidance they offer.  Sad. 

anybody experiencing cec connection issues with NAD?

I do not have a NAD processor. I do have a TL5 connected to a DA5 with a SPDIF connection and an optical connection to a computer running Qobuz and Media Center. I have only experienced problems with lower quality or damaged cables.
"...Depends..."

Thanks for that clarification. Good luck with your issue, I'm sure somebody will come by to help out. 
.??? This is an hdmi cable which is connected to arc which can be unreliable.  Your comment is abit off topic mr master
The medium for transmission (optical) is not inherently flawed. No, NAD gear is usually reliable.

I would buy nice and durable cables - maybe even ones that look cool.

A cable (in theory) should not alter or improve the existing signal. If it claims to add more bass, reduce treble, and provide a more coherent midrange response....that cable manufacturer is lying to you.

Source components can make a huge difference. Cables should not have a sound signature. Think of 0 db - that’s what an ideal cable is.
