no one makes it. Separates could handle it beautifully.

digital inputs, but only 65 wpc and one analog input which could be used for your turntable with a phono preamp. The preamp outputs could be used for the subwoofer, but an iPod would have to be connected to a digital input via an iPod dock with a digital output like the Cambridge Audio iD100.

The $900 80 wpc NAD C356BEE DAC is feature rich but you would still need a phono preamp for your turntable. I don't think you can add both the Modular Design Construction phono stage and DAC. The NAD literature seems confusing, so you would want to ask an NAD rep if both DAC and phono modules can be added.

65 wpc would be pushing it.

I can probably make it work with these.

Question, do you or anyone else, know if either of these models really make music. I want a beautiful, rich sound. The music hall a15.2 for example - has a reputation for great sound. I do know that Nad and peachtree gear is made well.
