Bottom Line: I returned the first M3 I had, because of a faulty display. At that point I wasn't sure if I wanted to stay with NAD, because of all the negative comments about reliability the brand gets so I decided to go for another brand.
Got a musical fidelity M6i after that, but I quickly realised this was a big mistake.
Not that the M6i is a bad amp, but the M3 just smokes it.
The M3 is much more refined. It also has better midrange detail (especially the low-mid!) and a larger soundstage.
That's why I returned the MF and ordered a new NAD M3. It's a gem. At this pricepoint there's no better sounding integrated amplifier (for my taste ofcourse).
It powers my powerhungry dynaudio speakers effortlessly.
Too bad the price here in Europe is much higher than in the US, but it's still worth it.
It can compete with much more expensive amplifiers.

Bottom Line: I purchased this integrated after reading many reviews. I use the PSB Gold'i as my loudspeaker. What I liked about the M3, is I began to play some of my older recordings and they sounded pleasing to my ears. So I found myself becoming reacquainted with my Aerosmith CDs. Females vocals also sounded pleasing, and could be cranked loud and not be bothersome, such as my Enya collection.
The bass is not quite defined enough for me through these speakers. It's a warm (but not too warm) bass, however it did not have the slam I was looking for especially at higher volumes. It appears the relatively low damping factor limited the amplifiers control of the woofers. If you want to play this loud, a sub-woofer is recommended. Or a very efficient full range towers.
Overall, a very pleasing sound and easy on the ears. 400WPC may be more to my liking.

Bottom Line: This integrated AMP has shaken my beliefs about the impact and preamp and/or amp can make in the performance of a stereo system. I do not change my equipment frequently and am rarely prone to highenditis. I was content with the sound of prior amp and preamp; a B & K Pro10mc and a NAD 208THX. I was driven to make a change, for ergonomic reasons. I purchased the M3 because of prior personal history with NAD products and customer service, consistently good reviews and the opportunity to purchase a demo unit at a good price. Upon installation, I was flabbergasted. I did not expect to hear any significant changes and simply hoped to equal/maybe slightly better my prior components. Here is what I heard:
Tighter, deeper and more detailed bass.
Broader and deeper soundstage.
Rock solid center image.
Greater detail and resolution.
Greater realism.
Since I admit the possibility of being influenced by reviews, personal attachment to a purchasing decision, etc. I asked both my son and my wife to independently listen to the music of their choice and tell me what they thought. I gave them no preparation and they did not know my opinion, prior to listening. I made sure I was not in the room while they listened. Neither of them is into the audio side of things and they simply like to listen to music on a regular basis.
Both reported back that they heard significant improvement in the system and when asked for details listed the same/similar comments as mine above. Although a perfect test, I am comfortable that I am truly hearing most/all of what I have listed above.
My other components are:
PSB Goldi speakers, Sony DVP-s7700 DVD/CD player, HK turntable, Shure Ultra cartridge, NAD PP3 phone pre-amp.
Your mileage may vary, but I am delighted with the improvements this product has brought to my music system.
