NAD VISO FIVE - yes or no??

[admin_exported]

Okay - I'm really tempted by a NAD VISO FIVE I've seen available at £699. It seems a really good price and the unit gets great reviews. I'll match it with my existing KEF 2005.2 speakers and a new 37" plasma TV.

I really want a one box solution that does music really well and DVDs pretty well. In future I'll probably add a blu-ray box. My only hesitation is that it won't support HD audio over HDMI, but I'm thinking that I can get a blu-ray player with HD Audio decoder and 5.1 analog outs and send the audio to the amp that way.

I just don't have space for a separate amp / dvd / cd / and then blu-ray.

Anyone care to persuade me either way? Anyone on here got a VISO? £699 seems a deal too good to miss!

You appear to have more or less answered your own questions. You have to decide for yourself (by listening) if you want to go for a separates system, which in my view is the best option, or an integrated solution, which is handy for some for various reasons.
