will nad c350 drive low impedance?

How does this happen--CD defect?
about 12 years ago or so I bought a SMITHEREENS CD (alt. rock). Got it home put it on the stereo and discovered it had completely different/wrong music on it. I think it was some kind of new age or something. The CD label was correct though. I bro... 
CD outputs and HDCD
you'll want to use the RCA analog preouts. To take advantage of the HDCD with digital; your receiver or processor would also need to be capable of decoding HDCD. I know of very few units that can.The D/A in my NAD c541i sounds MUCH better than the... 
Where do I go from Eva Cassidy?
i love Eva Cassidy. I also love Sarah MacLachlan(spelling?). She falls under the soft rock genre. Her song, ANGEL, can bring a tear to the eye. some of her songs are more rock flavored but all sung with the same emotion and heart. she has probably...

Something you may want to look into!I had it in my right ear- turns out it was likely caused by grinding my teeth in my sleep- which i only do when lying on my back. I try my best to only sleep on my side and amazingly the ringing has gone away. I... 
Looking for a used $500-$700 amp to warm up sound
How old are the speakers? Are they basically brand new. I have Studio 80 V2's which have the same tweeter. I thought they sounded bright when I first got them. The tweeters calmed down big time after about 100 hrs or so. i also have a Denon receiv...

Thanks again guys. What about using a 2-way adjustable electronic crossover instead? I already have the amps to do it.the speaker is a 2-way & has 2 8-inch drivers and a tweeter.I'd run the crossovers high pass section to an amp then straight ... 
custom Crossover building service??
