New member Username: MrdiablinPost Number: 3 Registered: Jan-06 | I`m almost decided to buy NAD T-753(T763 is too expensive) but I have a question if NAD gives me a 3 dimentional sound at good quality in Home Cinema. I have read some tests and it has strange notes: HI-FI & HOME CINEMA What we like about this receiver -Excellent basic sound quality -Good choice for CD replay What we don’t like about this receiver -Better with music than home cinema (is it true?) -DTS doesn’t show full expected advantage (is is true?) "If the NAD has a weakness, it is that it doesn’t sustain quite the same level of excellence with film soundtracks. Like most modern receivers, it is perfectly capable of good, strong imaging from Dolby Digital or DTS sources, but it doesn’t sound as open or as immersive with Dolby Digital as the best in class (the Yamaha springs to mind again), and DTS recordings lack the more solid, three dimensional, structured quality that this superior format can usually be relied on to provide – for example with Finding Nemo which has both formats on the disc. It is still good, and after all this is not an expensive receiver so something has to give. But in many ways it behaves like a decent stereo amplifier that does home cinema rather than the other way around." - I don`t how to understand it. In another tests, WHAT VIDEO AND WIDESCREEN TV: WHAT’S GOOD Hi-fi like warmth and naturalness; ideal for stereo buffs moving to multi-channel; excellent dialogue WHAT’S BAD A bit basic for the money; home cinema fans may not like that much hi-fi sound; not good for DVD-Audio/SACD And my Question is to all NAD owners should I trust in their opinion or Just go ahead with NAD and enjoy the Home Cinema. P.S. I realy don`t want to be disappointed after I buy A/V Receiver, bring it home and turn on. |

Anonymous | You can get the Outlaw 1070 for about the same price as the NAD T753. You won't be disappointed. |
New member Username: MrdiablinPost Number: 4 Registered: Jan-06 | I`m rather focused on NAD Receivers. |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 4780 Registered: Dec-03 | From a former T773 owner I would say the same thing. But if you are set on getting NAD, the reviews you've been perusing is no longer relevant. I say have a go at it and just enjoy it. Forget the reviews and forget our views, get the unit and build your own conclusions. If you are focused on NAD go for it. Being disappointed after buying equipment is a chance that you will have to take, and you'll always wonder what could have been if you don't at least try. Good luck with your decision. |
Bronze Member Username: Patriots_fanPost Number: 23 Registered: Jan-05 | I am a current T763 owner and love it for both home theater and 2 channel. I would say the greatest advantage NAD has over brands like Denon, Yamaha, and Onkyo is that it sounds so much better in 2 channel. I also think my T763 sounds better in 5.1 with all formats than the Denon 2802 I used to own. I agree with Berny though. The best thing to do is let your own ears be the final factor in which unit you decide to buy. Good luck mrdiablin and let us know what you decide. |
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 2619 Registered: Feb-05 | I certainly agree with LT that the NAD T763 sounds better in stereo than many other mid priced receivers. It was the hum/hiss that drove me to another product. Only heard it in analog mode. Whether it be multi channel audio where it was just horrible to stereo where it was just obvious I couldn't get past it. I am fortunate enough to have an NAD C162 pre amp and Hafler power amp to do the stereo duties in my system so I bought an inexpensive AVR to take care of my movie needs. Point being if you are going to rely on the receiver to do everything then you may want to consider whether you can handle the hum/hiss issue which is as yet unsolved. If you decide that you can't then I would consider the Outlaw AVR. |
Bronze Member Username: KlaussnerPost Number: 16 Registered: Jul-05 | Comparing the NAD T763 to a Denon 2802 should be lopsided, that is a lower end Denon and next to the best NAD receiver. I am not going to argue what sounds better as that should be left up to the listener along with what other capabilities are desired. You people are entitled to your own opinions, the fact of the matter is that people can get a modest system that does what they need and have it sound very good. Maybe not according to audiophile standards where the NTH degree comes into play. I understand the differences in sound and yet I can hear modestly priced systems that sound good when set up proper in a reasonable setting. In a lot of situations the amount you have to spend versus the increase in performance is not worth it in my opinion especially if you are trying to stick to a budget. I think a lot of people are influenced by people on forums in the direction of higher priced equipment because of peoples opinions. If I had the money I would definitely have separates but I don!t. Anyone buying NAD is taking a chance, although there might be some who have not had problems there are many more that have and I have even been told at stores that sell Nad that being I am concerned about problems I should not buy one because they are known to have issues. |
Silver Member Username: EramseySouth carolina United States Post Number: 405 Registered: Feb-05 | I agree with you totally Bubba. I have heard the complete NAD AVR line at a dealer which I heard no hum/hiss issues with the stock that this particular dealer had but a product of this supposed quality and price should not suffer any noise issues, hell I've had $150 Japanese brand stereo receivers that had a dead silent noise floor. This type of noise issues are completely unaccepatable in an AV receiver really of just about any make or price range. |
Bronze Member Username: Patriots_fanPost Number: 27 Registered: Jan-05 | It wasn't just the 2802 Bubba. I have listened to higher end Denon's and they didn't sound any better. I object to your comment that anyone buying a NAD is taking a chance. It seems like alot of people on here who have never owned or used a NAD in thier homes seem to think they are experts on the NAD euipment and like to tell people how prevelant the hum issue is. Well I have owned and used both NAD and denon in my home and it's my opinion that NAD makes a superior product. I own a NAD T763 and have no hum or hissing. I have also owned two Denon's a 2802 and a 3805 and neither of them had quality control issues but neither of them could come close to the sound of most NAD recievers. As far as price goes Denon can get pretty expensive too Bubba. Thier top of the line reciever goes for $6000. All I can say is that if I had $6000 to spend on components I would,t waste it on anything by Denon. |
Bronze Member Username: KlaussnerPost Number: 17 Registered: Jul-05 | Lord Thistlewick I have had other stores that sell NAD say the same thing about issues with them. I have also talked to an authorized service center about them when I was foolish enough to consider one of them and what they told me is the reason I don!t own one. By the way, what is your job at NAD? |

New member Username: MrdiablinPost Number: 5 Registered: Jan-06 | Ok, I`ve become a happy NAD T-753 software ver. 2 owner . Looks very beautifully and perfectly to me and it sound briliant. But I hear hum(bzzzz) from my speakers when the sound is turned off, strange it should not happen. My front speakers is Acoustic Energy Aelite Two My cables is Real Cable BM 250,direction and connection is correct My DVD is Pioneer DVD454 connected to Receiver by Profigold PGD4000. Maybe someone give me an advice what should I do to eliminate this hum. |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 4802 Registered: Dec-03 | I don't you'll ever get rid of the hum/hiss from the NAD. I agree that it sounds terrific, I just cannot get rid of that blasted noise. By the way a friend of mine who bought my T773 decided that he cannot live with the noise as well. He gave me back the T773 and proceeded to get the Outlaw 1070. He will receive the unit next week. I'm still the owner of a NAD 773 I'll probably just give it to my kid when he goes off to college. |
New member Username: MrdiablinPost Number: 6 Registered: Jan-06 | Maybe this hum is a result of working fans |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 4805 Registered: Dec-03 | Fans???? I don't think so. The noise is coming from the speakers and not the unit, I thought the same thing...I mean 5 fans cannot be that quiet. I haven't even heard them turn on. The fans are usually a lot rowdier than that...screaming and carrying on having fainting spells and all |
New member Username: MrdiablinPost Number: 7 Registered: Jan-06 | No, I mean from electricity point of view, maybe fans are bad isolated from other parts of electronics. I know that hum is coming from speakers . |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 4807 Registered: Dec-03 | It could very well be, but I went through 4 different units before I settled with the last one having the least amount of hiss. I take it then that you can tolerate the hum? |
New member Username: AllenPost Number: 9 Registered: Sep-05 | I have a T752, the predecessor and it sounds great with my Dyns 52. I heard a hiss but not a hum.Maybe you are right Diablin, the fans on the 753 are always on unlike on the 752 which automatically turns on when the receiver really gets hot.The fan is a coil that may create noise and don't know if it enters the filter circuitry. |
New member Username: MrdiablinPost Number: 8 Registered: Jan-06 | Ok, I`ve looked up once again with this hum and everything is ok. Sound is perfect, superb, great and this receiver just like in SNAP song:"It has a Power". I was watching Blade part 1 and sound effects was great to me. |
Keith Mann Unregistered guest | My T752, which is a couple of years old, has had a few nasty points: 1) A bad fan circuit -- an known issue which was fixed under warranty. 2) Likes to have plenty of ventilation, which is only a problem if you like glass doors on your cabinet to prevent, say, your two-year-old from mashing the buttons 3) Annoying lock-ups when switching sources or surround modes, which can be cured, usually, by muting then unmuting the receiver 1) and 2) are fine with me, 3) is annoying but I can live with it. However... 4) Recently, developed a nasty hum. My gut tells me it's interference on the power line, so I'm experimenting with other devices on the circuit to try to track down the source. If it turns out to be the receiver itself I'll be going shopping. |
New member Username: UsernamexLondonEngland Post Number: 9 Registered: Oct-05 | Hi, I read a post where John A (I think it was him) fixed his humming T760 by replacing a power supply capacitor. The first production used a cap that wasn't rated to a high enough temperature, and when it eventually went bad he got a real nasty hum. So if you had temperature probs... |
New member Username: MaghamirPost Number: 8 Registered: Dec-04 | I bought my T753 3 months ago and I have tried to hear the famous hiss/hum! But I can't and my ears are very sensetive. This reciver is excellent for music my only complain is that I whish I had the money to buy the T773. I use it 100% for music stereo and SACD and DVD-Audio. |
New member Username: FatelvisPost Number: 2 Registered: Feb-06 | I just went through 2 T743s, both with hiss (one worse than the other). Hum was evident on Dolby 2.0 recordings (most of the "kid stuff" is in this format). The seller said I was looking for problems... but after 15 years with a 7240PE I couldn't accept these "features"! |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 5933 Registered: Dec-03 | Of course not, and you really shouldn't have to. But some do get lucky, however, luck shouldn't be a factor when making a NAD purchase. |
New member Username: FatelvisPost Number: 5 Registered: Feb-06 | My guess is some people are OK with the hiss, and don't stumble across enough DD 2.0 recordings to notice the hum. Upon accepting my 2nd return of a T743, the dealer said that $1500 is required for an A/V receiver of comparable sound quality to a $500 integrated. That said, I'll stick with analog 2 channel and go to the movies when I want surround. (although -- if true, that points to the Arcam AVR250 rather than the NAD T773). My love affair with the 7240PE has led to: - The C520, a difficult CD player to enjoy fully - The C540, with skipping problems and disk read errors (but big improvement over the C520!) - The C730 receiver, a wimp in wimp's clothing (went back to the 7240) - The C320BEE, mild mannered and detail-oriented... like an accountant. A snoozer. (went back to the 7240) - The T743, with poor D/A and hiss/hum problems. The analogs on my el-cheapo Sony sounded better than the 743's DAC. (went back to the 7240!) I do like my C521BEE, however.... its a hold-over until I find something better (Arcam CD73??) I may be done with NAD. |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 5954 Registered: Dec-03 | Have you looked at Outlaw Audio? They are my new favorites that replaced my NAD T773. |
Bronze Member Username: MaghamirPost Number: 12 Registered: Dec-04 | I bought a T753 a few months back. I wanted to buy the T763 but it was too expensive, now I wish I had bought the 63 instead just because it has more power. I am very happy with the quality of this receiver; when it comes to music, it is superb compare to Yamaha, Denon and even Marantz. It is very close to Arcam which I have also auditioned. I use it 99% for listening to music. AS I said I have no problem with it no hissing no humming nothing what so ever. I have Totem Arro speakers and they are very demanding nad whne I turn the volume up over -20 db the receiver clips. The receiver does a decent job for films and this is from my limited experience in viewing ,music concert DVDs. Arcam is better at this but then again you pay for it. I hope that I have helped. |
Silver Member Username: HawkHighlands Ranch, CO USA Post Number: 709 Registered: Dec-03 | I have had a T753 for two years now and have yet to hear any hiss, or hum. They drive my Dynaudios beautifully, whether for two channel stereo or 5.1 soundtrack material. I have been extremely satisfied, especially in light of my bad experience with a Denon 3803 receiver. |
New member Username: BensunPost Number: 1 Registered: Mar-06 | Help! One friend (B&W 603+Yamaha receiver) complained my NAD T753 + Paradigm studio 40 as not open sounding, like the sound is covered by some cloths. Then my wife swear that Pioneer DV-588A-S sounds better with CD/SACD/DVD-Audio than my newly acquired Denon 2910 with my T753 and paradigms. My feeling is that my friend's comment has some merits (Though I think his is toward the bright side). As for my wife, I feel Denon is smoother, a bit laid back than Pioneer. I have to convince my wife so that I can keep the Denon. I listen to only two channel music. No sub. The speaker is version 2. Please advice. |
New member Username: BensunPost Number: 2 Registered: Mar-06 | Anything you recommend that I can improve the sound? I user monster speaker cables and regular RCA interconnects for SACD/CD/DA-A |
Bronze Member Username: Diana_vargasPost Number: 12 Registered: Dec-05 | hello, I have a funny story to share with you all. This guy I recently started dating came over last week, took one look at my Panasonic sa-xr55 (thanks again edster) and said, "Ha! Wait until you hear my T753, that's a REAL receiver." When I told him how much it cost he was just rolling on the floor laughing at me, and to be honest I was a little embarassed too. Then the next day he shocked me by actually lugging that 40 pound monster over to my place, hooked it up to my Polks and CD player with a snort...and guess what? Two hours later he could not stop shaking his head and picking his jaw off the floor at how much BETTER the Panasonic sounded to him! Personally I thought the two receivers sounded pretty much the same except for the hissing thing, but this time he was the embarassed party and boy was he ever. Never knew he could turn so red so quick and for so long. Nice guy though. Said he'd be selling his NAD soon to get a Panasonic, and would split the profit with me! I love a man who is man enough to admit it when he's wrong. |

I've never heard the hiss or hum sounds being reported here, sure it's not from your source or a ground problem in your systems? I do use it for HT also but 90% is for music and it's a perfect match with my Paradigm Studio 20V3s, Rocket UFW-10 sub & Music Hall 25(modded) player..

Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 2888 Registered: Feb-05 | Hi Eddie, The last piece I bought while I was still running HT was that Outlaw monoblock for the center channel. It worked very well and had the intended effect of cleaning up the dialogue a bit. If you check my profile you'll see that I have gone to 2 channel exclusively with a tube amp. The difference is phenomenal. I have become the ultimate analog 2 channel dinosaur and am quite proud of it. I've never owned a system that came close to sounding this good before. The Prima Luna tube amp is a revelation. |

Well I have never heard a tube amp and wouldn't mind checking one out sometime just out of curiousity.

So does this mean you've sold off the Hafler and the rest of your speakers? What about the Hsu sub? |
