Potential NAP 180 Heresy

Posted by: Hamish on 27 July 2017

After playing with my old NAC 12N and NAP 120 as a second system and coming to terms that the main reason it seemed to run hot was because it really didn't fit the room, I picked up an Olive NAP180 at a decent price and am awaiting shipment.  After doing some research several months ago, it appears that the NAC 12 has a really good reputation (although not everyone here seems to agree, probably because they're too young and don't remember this gem), so I intend to initially use this with the 180.

Has anyone had any experience with this set up or should I  just pick up a NAC 102?

Cheers,

Hamish

The 120 is a great amp, Hamish. It really deserves a full service to bring it back to its former glory. Mine is also an earlier example (0402) and still in use paired with my NAC12.  Best of luck.
