I would imagine that the NAD Receiver doesn't have the control on the
Nautilus drivers. I have a pair of the Nautilus 805s and they need a
good quality power amp to drive them well and control the drivers. I use
SimAudio Moon amplification.
I was told by someone from B&W that the main changes through the 800
Series range has been to make them easier to drive, as well as
easier/cheaper to manufacture. Then they fitted the Diamond Tweeter!

Tks
