While there tends to be reliability issues with the Cambridge model, I really don't think it's often enough to cause concern....besides...warranty.

My pick is the Cambridge. It's a little less powerful but I've always liked their stuff. I've never heard a NAD so I can't really comment on that.


Besides, the Cambridge looks cooler. To be honest, you might not notice a big difference in SQ between the 2. They're both pretty high quality

Cambridge only because i've heard of the name. Don't know anything about them, but recognize the name.

NAD reminds me of the NADS which is unwanted hair removal stuff. Never heard of it... wouldn't trust it whatsoever.

Dude. That's "NAIR" not "NADS"

NADS are where you never wanna get kicked. And if you do, well your screwed.
