Home Theater: NAD Has Bad News and Good News

The bad news is that none of four new receivers have on-board decoding for the new lossless and other Dolby and DTS codecs. The good news is that modular construction will allow updates for this issue, in perhaps a year, and others that may arise. If you don't plan to buy a Blu-ray or HD DVD player soon, and prize NAD's consistent performance and high value, one of these new kids may be the receiver for you. They include the T 785, shown, $2999; T 775, $2499; T 765, $1999; and T 755, $1299.

Since the HD-DVD and Bluray players all unpack the lossless audio and output it as PCM to the receiver, it doesn't matter that these NAD products don't unpack it. They accept PCM.

True of older players and some newer ones. But other newer ones (like the second-gen Pioneer) do output the new codecs as bitstream.

Mr. Gary Winnick�s self-examination was only skin-deep: When the company started to report earnings losses and spiral downward last year, he and other Global Crossing executives kept employees and shareholders in the dark while they greedily cashed in hundreds of millions of dollars of stock. According to The NewsHour, corporate insiders sold their stock for a total of $1.5 billion. Fat paychecks for top management were the norm.

You may be allergic to house dust but have no reaction when the concentration of dust in the Air Purifier Live is low. Change the bedding, however, and you start to sniffle.
