I thought of that but with all the gear I'm bringing up to the cottage, I won't be able to bring back the Hawks and the M100's if I choose to take them (and I don't want to trade in the Hawks, they would move to the office). It shouldn't be hard to do an initial test of the Hawks using my Sonos Connect:Amp that's in the same room (powering the Kitchen and Dining room ceiling speakers). It's also rated at 50wpc so I should quickly see if the NAD is the culprit and underperforming. I can also bring up my Onkyo from the basement if I want to try them with even more power. Yikes, I think I'm talking myself out of the M100's and into simply picking up a powerful 2-channel amp. If the sound still leaves me wanting after that, then maybe I'll reconsider the M100's.
