What amp is that? Mine looks identical (c320 bee) but that doesn't say much when it comes to NAD.

Hey I use HD555s with my C320 too, was pretty pleased about it but I was later given a tube headphone amp (its also in the pic I posted earlier) and that definitely makes it sound even better.

Really love the amp though, the ability to hook stuff between the pre and power amp was handy for hooking up a subwoofer, I just wish it had an extra set of speaker outputs.

I run my speakers throught a NAD stereo power amp much like someone else in this thread.

That's a drat good set of eyes you have there.

3 Noctuas to be exact, and the CPU HSF to match.


Tell me, does your case rattle and vibrate from time to time?

Yes, seems like I'm not the only one with this problem! It really likes to start buzzing out of nowhere. I mounted my hard drive cage on a foam pad and put tape on the parts of the case the side panels slide past, but they still buzz every now and then. Since I moved a while ago it hasn't really happened anymore, don't know if it's the carpet or just random luck. Like the guy above said, prodding it mostly took care of it too.

But I love the way it looks and how simple it is both internally and externally, I just wish it was a little more solid and had better HD mounts. Being as it's under my desk anyway I think I'd rather use a case with metal, as opposed to aluminum, panels next time.

By the way I also removed the grating from the rear fan, really improves airflow though it means having to be careful with fingers.
