    Yeah everything else that's plugged into it is working completely fine, as is the unit itself.

    Yes, had I known that I'd be looking at full capacitor failure in a little less than 2 years I would not have gone that route. Is that something that could be guaranteed? No, but it is quite unusual for a (well maintained) unit of this age to have this problem, so something must've happened. If...

    That's very generous of you, but yea shipping internationally is a disaster right now, and considering the ordeal this amp has put me through, I think I'd find some much needed peace of mind buying something new with warranty from a reputable dealer. But that is really generous to even...

    Im definitely open to buying NAD if it's through a trusted site like those, where it comes with a 2 year warranty. That model is probably at the top of my list. What I'm not sure on, (and would love the advice of more knowledgeable users) is if I can bypass the onboard preamp like the C375BEE...

    The thing is, it's not a nice amp when it doesn't work, and it hasn't been working for 4 months now. This whole ordeal has been a decision between "bring it to a shop, invest more money into it, send it to a better shop, invest more money in it" vs "Cut your losses and buya much cheaper amp that...

    Hence me sending it to an authorized repair center.

    If two diffrent shops, one of which is certified by NAD themselves couldn't fix it cheaply, I trust that it can't. I don't have the expendable income to keep sending this heavy heavy amp to diffrent shops.

    Yeah if this dude he's been repairing audio components as long as I've been alive didn't even want to attempt to work on it, then it's far out of my league. I sent the email to Panamax. Why not? Not expecting anything back. So lets say I go "fuck it" with the NAD, and just put in storage...

    To be fair, he might have said almost every capacitor is blown and needs to be replaced, I was pretty angry and sad after hearing the quote so I might have missed that. And yeah my first thought is that sounds ridiculous, but it's a certified NAD repair shop I got off their reference list, I'm...

    It's always been connected through the panamax, yeah. Would a power surge even make sense? It just shut off one day; all over components connected to the panamax, and the panamax itself is completely fine. What would I even write to them; "Hey, I had a amplifier connected through your power...

    My NAD C375BEE went kaputt back in June, local shop couldn't fix it, got it sent to NAD 6 weeks ago, and today I finally got the call that almost every capacitor is blown and cost $800+ to fix. FML @AnthonyI I know I got this seconhand from you about 2 years ago...how long did you have it? It...

    There was a time when 16 year old me binged through all the Saw films and enjoyed it. Then they came out with Saw: The Final Chapter and I thought "Ok, that's a satisfying-ish conclusion for this ridiculous bumpy ride of a franchise, and now it can finally be put to rest". And since then...

    Yeah Scoot and Ayton is a pretty solid young duo, on top of the pieces they already had like Simons. I don't really see Jrue playing on that roster, but he's one of the best perimeter defenders in the league and should be a valued trade piece. Good job Blazers.

    The NBA Thread

    So obviously the focal point of the trade was Dame to MIL......but is Nurkic really an upgrade over Ayton? I know Ayton's shown hesitance to really pound the boards, draw contact and get physical, but is Nurk really that much of an upgrade? Ayton doesn't seem all that different then when he was...

    Now you have to pretend to like Dame.

    If you ever want to read Legends Thrawn, the "Heir to the Empire" trilogy is the place to start. Along with the Dark Empire comics, it's what really kickstarted the EU, and is probably the single most important piece of non-film Star Wars media. It just lays the groundwork for everything that...
