Behind its elegant and uncluttered front panel, the circuitry in the NAD 1000 provides performance
equal to pre-amplifiers costing up to twice the price, The 1000 incorporates inputs for CD, tuner tape
and video, plus separate phono pre-amp circuitry, using discrete transistors in an optimised circuit. The
‘Tone Defeat’ button provides a ‘straight through’ signal path, by-passing the tone control circuits.
NAD’s resourceful engineering has resulted in a high performance control unit for use with single or
multiple power amplifiers (bi-amping) and active loudspeakers at a remarkably low cost.
