What NAD amplifier to get?

I'm getting an amplifier for a third system, so wouldn't like to spend much.

My options are a NAD C350, C316BEE or a 3020D. If I stretch a bit I could get a Micromega Myamp. Last option, Audiolab M-PWR. This will be driving a B&W speaker, CDM1, but I might change this later on...

The C350 is rather old, C316BEE is discontinued and I'd have to wait a bit to get the 3020D... The C350 I could get as a good used deal locally, which is pretty rare...

I just got the CDM1 and was a bit disappointed with the sound resolution, I'm used to a better sound. So not too confident on getting an old amp, except if it's really worth it.

Feedback is appreciated,

thanks

Hi there jmabe, I was in similar situation to you some years ago and was directed to a Naim Nait  integrated, for at the time was an excellent choice with Yamaha NS10 Speakers..

An earlier Nait should be in your budget, it brought to the table life and drive also a sense of thereness the Nad  just didn't have ., to me anyway. Luck to you.
