IIRC, these things originally came with a 4x12 and a powered sub. 
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: NAD
Was home alone yesterday for a bit so I turned it up to 3 and a half.
Holy jesus.
So loud, but so so good... its a little fizzy at bedroom levels but even at 3.5 that smooths right off.
Its got what I want which actually isn't that much gain but for the gain to have a real aggressive, muscular, angry tone. And man, this thing is evil.

Re: NAD
Pretty much sums it up. Ryan at TAS referred to it as a "the killer" when he fired it up to about 4 on the MV once. Doesn't have a lot of gain by modern standards, but just has a thick, raw gain sound around 6-8 on the dial.sirvill wrote:Was home alone yesterday for a bit so I turned it up to 3 and a half.

As someone said in a review I read a while back, the volume is perfect for when too much isn't enou... no it's just too much.The Scarecrow wrote:Pretty much sums it up.
