 | | The NAD 317 is built around a 500VA Holmgren transformer and a bank of small value reservoir capacitors cross-connected in a manner calculated to provide a powerful but stiff power supply. |
 | | The 317 has the usual NAD features, including bypassable tone controls, removable pre/power amp links which allow it to operate as a preamp, or as part of a bi-amp or multi-room system, a headphone socket, and six inputs, all at line level and including two tape circuits. |
 | | The strengths of the NAD were equally apparent in pre- and post-panel session testing, where the 317 showed itself to be virtually indifferent to the nature of the loudspeaker load, and capable of playing cleanly at volume levels that defeated other amplifiers in this test group, with the exception of the harman/kardon HK690. |
