Have a Kenwood KA-770D integrated amp bought in 1989 hooked up to a pair of Pioneer HPM-100's (bought in 1977). Have not used either in years. All my music is digitized (FLAC/MP3). Did not want to run wires from pc to the Kenwood. But with this little jewel, everything is literally plug and play. Receiver box plugs into amp analog jacks (has digital also). Transmitter plugs into pc USB and they auto link to each other. No drivers to install for Windows 7/8. Sounds great and breaths new life into classic audio equipment. Tip: easy access to both internal sound card/pc speakers and external amp provided by creating a shortcut to Control Panel-Sound on the desktop. Changing from the NAD to pc internal sound and back is a click away.

Works correctly right out of box, needs no setup, just plug and play.

This is a great little digital-to-analog-converter. I bought it chiefly for the convenience of its wireless capability with low expectations of improved audio performance. When streaming Apple Lossless files to my receiver it sounds better than the CDs I used to create the files -- I kid you not. I did a comparison switching back and forth between the streamed files and the CD I used as my source. I have a pretty good disc player -- a Marantz UD5007. Marantz has a reputation for a warm sound whereas I prefer a little more brightness. The streamed audio file had more punch and more high end definition, but without sacrificing midrange performance. I felt there was a marked improvement in clarity though the midrange. I am very pleasantly surprised and I highly recommend this device.

I love this DAC. The sound quality is spectacular and It makes playing music from my computer much more convenient. I paired this with my 1979 Akai Receiver, and I was blown away. I'd highly recommend this product. Just be aware the output is pretty high. You may want to lower the volume on your music playing software before trying it out for the first time.

No documentation is not necessarily a bad thing: it's basically plug-n-play. I have been a fan of NAD Electronics for a long time. They got really weird a few years ago and cut back who/where/why you could purchase their products to the point they were unavailable and ridiculously expensive. I'm glad to see they've reversed that terrible business strategy and hope Best Buy begins to carry more of NAD's products. I'm still using the NAD AV 318 amp I purchased 20 years ago, and the DAC unit was a pleasant addition. Sound quality does not get any better than NAD.
