Best price for NAD T762 Receiver?
I am in Los Angeles and interested in purchasing this receiver either from a local B&M dealer or online for the best price possible. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Reggie

www.yawaonline.com is an authorized dealer. Most onlines sites are not authorized.
Email them for a price quote. It should come in just over $1000.

"Shows $1299 there... Or am I missing something?"
I think that is why e-mailing them is the key. Many dealers will only list the MSRP on-line, to keep the manufacturers happy and keep other dealers from complaining to the manufacturer, but are more then willing to negotiate.

You MUST email to get a better price. I said "Can I please get a price quote on the T762" and 4 hours later I received an email stating $1040.

Kevitra,
Thanks. I know YAWA is an authorized dealer. The local NAD dealer (The Sound Factor) near me in Los Angeles has invited me to come down but wouldn't give me a quote over the phone. Needless to say I will use the price that YAWA quotes me to see if they can match it.
Thanks,
Reg

Please let me know what price you end up getting. I am considering the 762 as well. I don't seem to have an authorized dealer within about 75 miles...

The place that used to carry NAD that I knew, went out of business, though they are still listed. I found another semi-local one.

Using one quote to try and match it at another place is a good way to start a war and try to get a dealer's status yanked by the parent company (Energy Speakers did this with vendors who sold below MSRP a few years ago).
I would highly encourage that if you get a favorable price, 1) do NOT post it as Kevitra did, and 2) the best place that quotes you a deal, buy it from that place as a reward for their willingness to deal.
Yawa is a class act (I buy from them regularly) and if they will give you a good price, I would ask that you to give them your business!
