How to Connect NAD 320BEE to Onkyo 308

[bladecutter_ph]

Hi. I decided to get NAD 320BEE integrated amp in order to improve my HT set-up, currently using Onkyo 308 but it has no pre-amp outs. How do I connect the NAD? Will I get improvement if I used my main speakers connected to Onkyo, and use NAD as pre-amp? The thing is - I'm clueless where to connect it.

Will appreciate your help.

You can't connect it!

You can only use that integrated amp as a stand alone system in another room, with another set of speakers. It is quite useless in your current system.

To do what you want you need power amps, NOT an integrated amp. You will also need to ditch your receiver and get either a receiver with pre outs, or better still a pre/pro that contains no amps.

That NAD unit is useless in an HT system, it has no video circuits and no bass management. To top it off it is only 50 watts per channel and basically suitable for a low powered bedroom or office system.

Next time before you buy a unit thoroughly research the application.

If you have no use for that NAD unit in another audio only system then you need to put it up for sale.
