Int amp help

I am on another group that just had a discussion about NAD, several technicians are on this group, NONE of them had any good to say about NAD, putting it mildly.

Disclaimer:
I am simply passing along others thoughts from another discussion, I do not and have not owned any, though a friend did years ago.

I own both an Audio Refinement Complete (ARC) amp and an NAD receiver. I have not heard the C370 but have auditioned the c350 amp. They all have strengths and weaknesses. The NAD has a slightly more forgiving, darker sound which will probably work better if your front end or speakers are not up to snuff. The NAD has tone controls, which I find are a must with them (especially the bass boost) and work very well, for tone controls. The ARC sounds like more expensive solid state gear (a little more open, a little more detail) and also seems to sound more powerful than its 50 wpc rating. The weaknesses of the ARC (imho)is that it can sound a little sterile on some source material and it emits an annoying clunk when you turn it on.

I have owned the Audio Refinement and can say that the NAD is clearly better and has the power that the original post here is lokking for.
As I said before, I have never been a fan of NAD before this. I have also chatted with techs over the yearsregarding build quality etc.. and I know that for a while NAD had some real QC problems. I can tell you things have changed. This amp is very well put together.

This amp was the European EISA amplifier of the year.

I would look to the recent Stereophile Review, the Measurements section for some qualitative comments on the engineering and build qualiy specific to this unit.
You'll find them to be exceptional, and when you consider the price of the amp downright surprising.

Sorry about the double post.
My comments are specific to the 370.
