Post by: nelcarol1994 on Jan 12, 2016 at 12:46 PM

Planning to pick up one of these player for my audio set up. Torn between this two player! Will match them to tube amp SET line magnetic. If you were to choose, which one will you pick and why?

Thanks.

Based on Sound Quality (SQ), I will go for the NAD 546 BEE due to the superior DAC - Wolfson 8740, it's the same DAC used in higher-end players such as Rega.
