I just bought a NAD 4150 tuner and I would like to share my impressions
of it with net folks.  The NAD replaced an old Dynaco FM-5 on which the
muting circuit failed.  The NAD is a bit quieter than the Dynaco (s/n
and all that).  The NAD has much greater separation and significantly
better high frequency response.  The operation of the NAD is very simple
and has proven to satisfy my requirements.  I have only used the NAD in
suburban environments so I can't comment on its multipath rejection
characteristics, but it is supposed to do quite well there.  As for
fringe reception, it seems to do fairly well, it does bring in weak
signals better than the Dynaco.  Overall it seems to be a good little
unit, but I can't really prove that it was worth $300 when there are
more consumer oriented companies (Pioneer, Sony, &c.) selling good
quality units for $150 to $200 (discount prices of course).
