... apparently I've got to be a member for 90 days too. That's fine, I'll wait until after Christmas.
... oh, and a NAD M12, just in case anyone was wondering. Mainly to upgrade to a new DAC, and also to get the option of adding a new streamer via a £400 quid expansion card, instead of having to shell out £1,200 for what is basically a 400 quid network+CPU card, plus Power Supply plus case.
Overall, I like it, but the advertised three analogue inputs aren't exactly what you'd think: You get three: 1 phono RCA, 1 single-ended RCA, and 1 balanced XLR. Thing is, there's no switch or other kind of bypass to make the phono into a line-level input, so if (like me!) you have two single-ended sources and neither of them is a turntable, or if you use a fancier phono pre-amp, you're SOL. NAD's recommended solution? buy another analogue card... which for £300 duplicates the three inputs the box comes with. Yay - another phono input that I don't want (and I know the phono circuit is the bulk of the cost in this)! (I got an RCA to XLR cable to connect the single-ended input to the balanced input; yes, it's 6dB down, but it works perfectly fine)
