Hi everyone this is my first post. I have been lurking for a little while and consider myself a bit of an audiophile of sorts.
Anyway, my NAD c350 integrated amp which I have owned from new for about 13 years decided to just die last night (Xmas day typical). It smells like something has burned out and it won't even power up no lights, no relays clicking, no protection circuit, nothing.
Now is it going to be worth having it fixed, or should I just replace it? I love my NAD and didn't want a new amp, so if I need a new one I want a one that will sound as close as possible to my C350.
Will the C326BEE be a good option, I'm assuming things haven't changed that much so the NAD sound will be much the same all these years later?
My speakers are B&W DM601 S3, biwired with QED silver anniversary. Sources are Sony CDP-XB930 and iPod touch on an Arcam iR dock. QED qunex interconnects.
Thanks for any help!
