- Hi everyone. I have been given an opportunity to buy a Nakamichi
- Receiver 2 and a Nak Cassette Deck 1.5 which was last years model hence
- they can give it to me for almost 40% off. It's a real steal but my
- problem is that the other components I want to get (speakers, cd player)
- is in other stores hence I can't really do a real comparison until I bring
- everything home and hook it up (the other 2 are still undecided yet). So
- I was wondering what other people's opinion on these 2 components are.
-
- These will be SALE items so I can't bring them back. That's my problem.
- They sound good in their soundroom hooked up to speakers around my price
- range but not quality I don't think. So I can't eally compare it with
- what I want to buy. So I had them hooked up to something way out of my
- price range ($2000 Mirages) and it sounded REAL good. But I was only
- going to spend a couple of hunred on my speakers and they probably
- won't be of the same quality. Or at least not of the quality of the ones
- I've been testing. So I don't know if it's the speaker or the
- components.
-
- Any Nak owners out there? For about the same price, at another store, I
- can go with NAD 705 receiver which also sounded real good. But can't
- compare them cause different soundroom, speakers, everything was
- different. I was also listening to the a Luxman and Denon of the same
- price range but weren't as good. Are Naks one level above that of NAD,
- Denon, Luxman...etc?
-
- Thanks in advance. I need to know before the end of this week.
- But the sooner the less chance of it being sold! :)
- Thanks again!
-
- Thomas.
