Nad M3 non repairable

Thank you  for all your replies, I replaced it with modern stuff from Best By, also my cd player ( nad m5  ) had the loading tray repaired twice, Maybe the mid range disposable units are the way to go. My new 900.00 Anthem amp sound very good compared to the 6.000.00 nad

I' m going to drill a rod through the side of the M5 and make a lamp out of it.

Shame and a Pox on NAD! I am presently listening to my 1977 Son of Ampzilla! Still in daily use and sounding mighty fine on the DCM Time Windows!

can you request a circuit board from these junk makers. that can help to ID parts in fault by trivial local tech. there are lots of equivalent semiconductors to repair your unit if circuit diagram is acquired.

Therefor sticking to old vintage school on components made in 70's 80's with all parts and diagrams available. Everything else is disposable trash.

This is mistaken. many high-end audio manufacturers stand behind their products with long-term service, and I'm speaking from first-hand experience. Audio Research, McIntosh, Bryston have made support a cornerstone of their business plan, for example. Their longevity suggests that's a wise move. As for NAD: such lack of support is a disgrace.
