How are you integrating the two NAD’s? 3030 as amp and the 3050 as sound processor? Both as amps? Beautiful clean setup

lovely. I think the warmer lights on the 3030 are a bit more appealing, but I like the wood grain on the 3050.
gorgeous room.
They are not integrated …… each amplifier is driving a set of speakers.
Just making comparisons soundwise - have to decide which of these NAD setups goes to my home office.
Real clash of electronic civilizations, 1974 vs 2023.
Quite entertaining to be honest.
NAD C 3050 LE is hardwired to network and playing Roon / Qobuz / NAS.
NAD 3030 is Roon connected to either Pro-Ject Stream Box S2 Ultra (running GentooPlayer software) and as DAC a Chord Mojo2 or through Chord Poly/Mojo2 combination.

Is that left speaker a bit. closer to the tv unit than the right or is it just the angle of the photo.
I’d have to get them millimetre perfect…
Looking good.

Angle probably. Even so. I’m not fussed about a few cm’s.
Even 1cm makes a difference, especially to imaging ,I found with my system.
Khorns are timeless, no? Everyone should hear them before they die

Excellent!
Love the tube set in the Almarro mono blocks. Those Russian MIG tubes are pretty hard core. I’m sure they sound great.
The Nad 3030 was the very first separates amplifier, that
I purchased. However, after building a 3 way kit speaker (The Compacts from Badgersound in St.Anne’s, U.K), I found out it’s limitation. When I connected up using a Sansui SR222 MkV turntable, there was no Bass 
. I took the speakers to bits, convinced I had made some stupid fundamental error, in assembly. Nope, everything checked out, still no Bass It was only when I took the speakers round to a friends, who had a Quad 44/405 system, that I realised the speakers were fine, but the Nad 3030 had limitations!
Anyway, the next week I bought myself a new Quad 44/405 system, which just happened to be in a sale, in a shop in Blackburn (the place with all the holes - Beatles song). So all ended well. 
P.S. By the way, that was 44 years ago, does time not fly!

It does fly, I remember the 405 coming out when I was still at school back in ‘75 .
Hi-fi mags back then were all about measurements, and the occasional kit builds.

Well I’ve placed both speakers the same distance from the TV. But I don’t hear any difference whatsoever.
