Dear experts here in this cool forum, I heard that essentially the NAD C 370 consists of C 162 and C 272 combined in one....is this true? What is the diference if its not? I still love my NAD C 370 by the way...unbelievable sound and value!!!! Thanks for being able to learn here so much Thorsten |

Almost...It is the C162 and the C270 combined. The C272 is the replacement power amp of the C270. A bit more power. 120X2 vs 150X2. Obviously separating the power and pre section can be beneficial. Keep on loving the music Thorsten. Cheers. |

@Nick K. Thank you. I see now. Sure, I understand that separation of the sections makes everything fatter and clearer. But for my budget, it cannot come "fatter".... |

Again me... ...and another silly newbie question: I have my system´s power chords running in a power-switch with 6 inputs (see picture). Now, I kind of like to shut off the NAD c370+c542 with the remote control by pressing the "standby"-button. The items click out, lights go orange (stand-by) and then I switch off the power-switch on the 6x-power-supply-stuff. Is this method ok or should I shut down the NAD-items by "really" closing them down via "power-off"-button??? With the "stand-by-method" , when I then switch on the 6x-power-supply, the amp and CD-player are ready to go (lights are green then). This is pretty cool. So no damage to the items via the stand-by-mode??? |

That should be fine Thorsten. I personally leave my NAD stuff IN standby mode at all times. I rarely shut them completely off, only if Im going away for a few days at a time or something. I think its actually harder on an amp to completely shut it down on a daily basis, kind of like a computer. |
