The unit is beautiful and was received in excellent condition, sound is excellent quality - clear and crisp. Negative comments are related to small display, no battery backup for time, not able to set alarm time duration, clock not displayed when source is active. Unit was returned.
NAD C700 V2 BluOS Streaming Amplifier. At the beginning i had to study, try und unterstand the amplifier. But after a while every thing functioned well. Bluetooth, apple airplay via macbook, music files itunes from macbook via optic cable, audiobooks. The sound is very good. A fantastic DAC. I hear music with loudspeakers Audiophysics spark III and B&W CM6 s2 and by NAD power of 98% the sound was very clear. In comparison to marantz amplifier PM 11 s3 the NAD had more pressure but comparable sound impression. Last not least I can recommand this NAD amplifier very warmly.
I’m really impressed with The Audio Factory. They shipped it out sooo fast that I received it in barely over 24 hours, so kudos to them. This is my first music streamer, so I didn’t know what to expect. I was up and running in no time because the Node Icon is very easy to setup and use. Based on all the reviews I read, I expected the Node Icon to sound amazing and I was not disappointed. The clarity is great and it has a warm sound that I wasn’t expecting. Very happy with this purchase!
Well built remote with basic functions but still very handy.
The PSB center channel works great and was in like new condition. Dialogue from movies and TV are clear and the unit hooked up easily to My Yamaha AVR.
Ordered the NAD C379 with the optional ($500) BluOS streaming module. Expected that the module would be pre-installed, but it was not. Even though the module installation looked pretty straightforward, it requires a “static free work station” to install it. I am not a techie, and I don’t have access to one. So I had to get someone else to install it. Took a week (and a meal) to get it done. Otherwise everything was satisfactory.
I love this little unit, great addition to my 2 channel system the sound is amazing!
The Icon sounds great and BluOS has worked flawlessly.
Pair the lower nose with a decent pair of bookshelf speakers and basically have great sound from a compact system. At list price it may not make sense, but at the audio factory price it is hard to beat. And it is real hifi, not a “lifestyle system”. Pairs well with Dali Spektor 2.
Customer service reached out immediately to ensure i was satusfied with my order. Very professional, very customer-oriented business, and very quick order fulfillment. Would highly recommend!
If I didn’t know any better, I would have thought my refurbished amp was brand new. I expected some blemishes and I didn’t see any. With the money I saved, I might be adding a refurbished NAD CD player. Shipping was faster than I expected. I paired the NAD C 3050 with the Warfedale Linton speakers and an Audio Technica AT-LP120 turntable. I think my modest setup looks and sounds great.
Les batteries meurent après 30 minutes. Je comprends pourquoi The Audiofactory nous les donnait, c’est très décevant.
The Bluesound Node 2i arrived quickly and looked more or less new with all the accessories accounted for when I opened it.
It took me quite some time and many different attempts to get it to connect with my computer music files but once I finally did it was worth it. The music sounds clear and nuanced and the interface is responsive and easy to use.
here would be the few suggestions for Bluesound.
1. and the biggest one !!! At this price point, you should not have to pay an extra 250 for room correction with Dirac if necessary develop your own like Wiim does.
2. does not alway recognize device requests for tidal connect
as far as what Audio factory sent. the refurb looked brand new worked like brand new and will definitely bookmark them for more audio purchases.
Great as always. Fast Shipping. Condition is like new and works as intended with no faults.
The PSB Alpha P3 speakers that I ordered were delivered in perfect condition in only two days. The speakers sound bright and full. More importantly they have soul - something that is missing from my experience with Bluetooth connected speakers.
Great experience purchasing these from Audio Factory. Speakers by all accounts looked brand-new upon receipt. Excellent soundstage, very natural sound.
As someone who’s spent years dialing in sound quality and connectivity (especially with lively & punchy signatures), the NAD C389 hits a sweet spot that many modern integrated amplifiers strive for — but few fully achieve. It’s a true hybrid: bridging classic NAD musicality with modern DAC performance and practical connectivity.
Really like the radio and the Bluetooth feature. Wonderful purchase.
