Review 1 of 4
Price Paid:
$250.00 Summary: I purchased this NAD T-753 to replace my dolby Digital Ready Carver receiver. The first thing I notice is the heavy weight of the NAD T-753. The NAD just simply blows away my old Carver receiver. The Carver is good but the NAD sounds much fuller and more punchy. The NAD has very good stereo image and it is a powerful machine. Next, I compare this NAD with my Arcam integrated amp Delta 290. It takes me a few days to decide the Arcam is slightly better. The Arcam sound is crystal clear while the NAD has a nice warm sound. Although the Arcam sounds better, I still like the NAD warm sound. This NAD T-753 is a amazing because it can challenge a good Arcam integrated amp at the same price.
I like 5.1 input/output capability of this receiver. I can use it with a separate power amp for the front speakers and the NAD drives the rest of my speaker system. Now I can get ARCAM sound in stereo mode as I switch the ARCAM to power amp mode. Strengths: Excellent sound, 5.1 input/output, good remote control.
Weaknesses: Fan noise. Similar Products Used: Carver, Arcam, Adcom, Harman Kardon.

Review 2 of 4
Price Paid:
$649.00
from Spearit Sound Summary: I bought this unit as a refurb for $649 but it looks brand new to me, I can't find any evidence of previous use. This unit replaced a NAD T751, which replaced a failed NAD T760. I also have a custom KT88 tube amp for my front mains, with PSB image speakers.
As far as home theater receivers go, this NAD has better 2ch music performance than most any competitors (yamaha, onkyo). while the older NAD HTRs had issues and were a little quirky, the 753's operation seems as solid as any japanese products. The enhanced stereo modes are also less heavy handed and fake sounding than the competition, and really help fill the house with sound with 5.1 stereo.
Versatility is a very strong point of this unit All of the inputs are programmable as to where its video and audio come from, and all channels gain can be adjusted independantly +/-12dB. There is almost nothing that isn't manually adjustable on this unit to get it to fit your set up.
The only disapointment I had was connecting my tube amp to the front preamp outs requires removing a coupler, disabling the receivers front 2 channels. You could use a splitter and feed back into the amp preamp ins but then loading/gain issues come into play...
As far a HT goes, the 753 is much better than the 751, with better DTS/Dolby implementation and more punch. The build quality is also very nice on this unit. This thing weighs 46lbs and sounds like it! I recommend this to anyone on the fence about a dedicated music system but only enough money for one HT/music system, like me. Strengths: 2 ch. sound unequalled for sub $1k HT receivers
More (programmable) connections than a switchboard!
Latest HT tech in a musical sounding unit
Build quality and heft Weaknesses: My last 2 NAD HT receivers both were quirky, but this one isn't.
Use of preamp outs disables receivers speakers, no biamping :-( Similar Products Used: Cambridge audio 540R, yamaha HTR-5250, older onkyo, NAD T751 & T760

Price Paid:
$999.00
from Home Theaters Inc. Summary: 2 Component Video In Mon out. 6 Assignable Digital Inputs 4 Coax, 2 Optical. Very superb sound. Clean and powerful. I reccomend this to anyone in the 800 to 1200 dollar price range of receivers. Strengths: Very powerful for 70x6 watts per channel. Channel separation and stereo bypass drive are clean and rigid. Very nice array of video inputs with monitor switching. Weaknesses: Locks up sometimes and needs to be reset. Not much to complain about all around.
