NAD 910
Not much is documented about the NAD 910 surround processor. Period reviews of NAD's other products, such as the 310, point to the brand's low noise design (HiFi-Stereo, April 1996, p.42). What the record shows is a mid-1990s Dolby Pro Logic processor that appears to have been NAD's entry in the early home theater market. It likely dates from around 1993, since a "93" year code appears in some listings. It had six-channel outputs and came with a remote control and manual, which was normal for an A/V preamp of the period.
The 910 was part of a small NAD family of surround processors that included the 117 and 917. A classified ad from May 1996 listed it at £200. By 2004 it was being sold paired with a NAD 902 power amplifier for around £450. A processor with a separate two-channel amp suggests it was often used as the front end of a modest home theater system rather than a full multichannel setup.
Service documentation is scarce; at least one owner has publicly sought a service manual, and no detailed technical specifications (frequency response, THD, input/output types) appear to have survived in the usual sources. The NAD 910 remains an obscure but genuine piece of NAD’s early surround-sound era, reflecting the brand's commitment to low noise design and high-quality components (HiFi-Stereo, April 1996, p.42).
