Help me choose between 2 amps

[Andy Humph]

I'm putting together a 2.1 stereo setup using a pair of MA Bronze BR2's and a MA VW8 sub, from my AV kit.
I have a decision as to which is the better of two amps.
One is a C352 Nad in 'as new' condition, the other is a class D T-Amp with 5.0 Bluetooth, tone controls and the facility to drive a MA VW8 sub. This has a good reputation amongst users of such kit.
They are both around the £80 mark.

What would you do?

Edit: I'm new here and have realised that my question relates to very low-end, not hifi kit! And I'm operating at a stupidly low budget. But if any of you can provide any tips for a 'noob' it would be much appreciated.
Regards
Andy

welcome andy . The nad looks lovely and they are pretty good amps . they have tone controls which i find helpful sometimes , i use a modest arcam a75 in one system and having tone controls helps . never heard of the other one . Nad may be easier to resell when you want to upgrade

Thanks hifinutt.
This is the class d amp on amazon...

interesting , of course the nad will have more inputs if you need them

Another alternative is the SMSL Q5 Pro which also has sub out.

I use one for TV duties, it's absolutely superb!

You can get it cheaper on ebay.

Thanks Jules.
I was looking at that one too but there's no bluetooth. I realise it's easy to add a dongle but I preferred having BT 5 built in.

The NAD every time.

As well as the NAD, some of the other options include:

Cambridge Audio Azur 540A
Marantz PM6005
REGA ELEX (not the R!)
Onkyo A-9155
morgan audio deva 250

Does anything leap out at you as much better than the NAD? Marantz?

Nad may be easier to resell when you want to upgrade

I wouldn't underestimate how important that can be. The NAD will probably have been resell value and be easier to sell, when you decide to upgrade (or you just decide you want to try something else)

The Marantz PM6005 in the classifieds here looks very tidy indeed and keenly priced.
