Jacky

Very good sound. The only downside is the Wi-Fi connection following a change of router, as I can't get it to connect to the new router despite a reset!

Très bon son. Seul bémol la liaison wifi suite à un changement de box car je n’arrive pas à le lier à la nouvelle box malgré une remise à zéro !

Eve

Absolutely nothing to say, it's NAD, it's serious...

Super rien à dire, c'est NAD, c'est sérieux …

Product meets expectations, no issues, but the instructions are more than basic, in fact non-existent.
