Why not fix it? JM Technical Arts in Tennessee will do so at a quite
reasonable price. What are the symptoms?
But: I also keep a B251 that threatened to "give up" - turned out to
be the rear switch was wonky in addition to a sticky relay. Cleaned
them both (MY GOODNESS, what a PITA!) and it reverted to its usual
good nature. Also, there are four fuses underneath behind a small
plate - have you checked those? Unless you have let the magic smoke
out, it is unlikely that your unit needs anything massively
expensive.
With reference to NAD (and I am expressing only my opinion and
experience here), they are certainly well-sounding, but as to which is
best, the short answer is none-of-them. The build-quality and
reliability is pretty wretched and varies greatly from unit-to-unit.
