Hi,
I recommend NAD only very reluctantly (fingers crossed behind my back) despite the excellent engineering, because of quality-control problems going as far back as the mid-1990s. I even recall a press conference by NAD held at the Consumer Electronics Show, in which NAD announced it had chosen a new factory that was going to end the complaints of poor reliability.
Of friends and acquaintances, I know of only one who hasn't had problems with their NAD gear. He has Axiom M22s that he uses with an NAD C-370 integrated amp, no sub, and the combo sounds wonderful.
Regards,
