NAD T 585

An impressively well thought-through design ; Well built, with exceptional video quality ; Powerful and authoritative CD/DVD-Audio sound ; Well above average SACD performance

NAD livery arguably looks a bit tired ; Remote handset lacks backlighting and punch-through controls

Takes NAD's excellent top-end Masters Series and drops it into a more affordable, classically designed frame. An impressive mid-priced all-rounder

No-nonsense build ; Excellent music player ; Upscaling to 1080i ; Suited to surround-sound music collectors

Video just a smidge off the pace ; Need to read manual to get best performance

In conclusion, the NAD T585 is a very good player with some features you just won't find on other, more "cosmetically" minded devices. Yet despite this, the flashy Marantz is simply the better player.

Outside the T585 looks like your typical NAD. A simple box in NAD grey, with a full complement of clearly marked controls allowing operation without resort to the comprehensive but poorly laidout remote handset. Build quality is simply excellent, never...

Met de T585 brengt NAD een topspeler op de markt die het niet moet hebben van zijn bescheiden uiterlijk maar van zijn bovengemiddelde innerlijk. Een echte wolf in schaapskleren! De verschillende formaten die de speler kan weergeven overtuigen allemaal,...

Good build, great sound, versatile connectivity

Only average video performance, no native video over HDMI, waste of time upscaling unless you have a mediocre display, poorly laid out remote. Not great VFM

AUDIO AND VISUAL PERFECTION ; AESTHETICALLY NEUTRAL ; SIMPLE TO SETUP AND OPERATE ; NO ANNOYING FLASHING LIGHTS ON THE DISPLAY ; VERY LITTLE TO GO WRONG

NO GADGETS TO PLAY WITH ; SORRY HAVING TROUBLE FINDING ANOTHER PROBLEM TO ADD

The sound quality is very good

The graphics are poor

Great picture; great sound and working perfectly so I would definitely recommend it. However, I have very limited experience of DVD players having only owned one previously. I decided to buy it after reading the professional reviews at...

I found the instruction manual rather hard going. Luckily, the player has an HDMI output terminal so all I had to do was plug it in and switch on. One annoying thing is that when playing a CD, the NAD Logo and the contents of the CD are permanently...

Looks great; hdmi was reason I purchased to replace NAD550 & price irresisitable

none so far
