Peachtree Nova 150 vs NAD M10

So I’ve had a chance to take home a demo unit of a Peachtree Nova 150 and I’m really enjoying it. It’s paring really nicely with my Klipsch rp-8000f’s.

I am using it with a turntable as well as a Bluesound Node 2i.

So - I was really hoping that maybe some of you can pipe in with thoughts/options/experiences on a comparison between these two units. (Nova 150 vs NAD M10)

My thought is that since both these use class D amps (and I’m definitely okay with that sound) and since the price of a Nova and Node 2i vs the price of an M10 is close (I can get an M10 around $2150) - will the sound quality be comparable...?! Will the 50w difference be noticeable?

Thanks in advance.

Buy a used Nova 150. I sold mine for maybe $900 about 6 months ago. For that price is it great.

The weakness of the Nova 150 is the preamp section. I have compared each part separately. I must say though when I owned it for 2 years it did the job and I enjoyed my music. I was thinking of buying it again for the KEF LS50's 2 days ago but ended up with something else.
