Congrats Nick. I suppose the question I have been waiting to ask is 'how is the treble extension on these kapton NADs' ?
I don't know what NAD did to bugger up their kapton driver, but i vastly prefer the presentation and voicing of a kapton driver over a mylar one. Those who have heard the Wharfedale will know what i am talking about.
@rhythmdevils : The brochure pics are all available on wikiphonia & more. In case you missed out here is the link
However, although they have great deficiencies, I was nevertheless literally floored on 1st time listening. The sheer acoustical authority of those monstrous 9 cm systems is something that is hard to be described.
Some pieces of the ID1 has arrived. It really does look cheaply made. Anyway, it really looks and feels like it was NOT made to last 40 years....

I love the 70's look of these [Yamaha brochure] pictures it's amazing to think that this is what sold products at that time.
