QUICKSTART

In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your new NAD T 753 receiver, we provide the following “Quickstart” instructions to get you underway. The steps below connect your DVD player to the T 753’s DVD input; be sure to read “Input Setup”, below.

PLAY A DVD MOVIE

Connect the T 753’s composite video or S-Video MONITOR OUT jack to your TV/monitor’s corresponding input. (Cables not supplied)

Connect your DVD player’s composite video or S-Video output to the T 753’s corresponding DVD input. (S-Video cable not supplied)

Connect the DVD player’s optical digital output to the T 753’s optical DIGITAL IN 1 input. (Optical cable not supplied).

Connect your left and right front speakers to the T 753’s FRONT L and R outputs, being sure to connect red to red (“+”) and black to black (“-”), with care to avoid stray wires or strands crossing between terminals. (Connect center, surround, and surround-back speakers as well, if you like). If your system includes a powered subwoofer, connect the T 753’s AUDIO PRE-OUT SW1, 2 or both jacks to its line inputs.

Press in the main power switch (black pushbutton) on the T 753’s rear panel (this puts the T 753 into STANDBY mode and illuminates an amber LED to indicate it is ready to receive remote commands), then use the HTR 2’s [ON] key to power up the receiver. Be sure the TV/monitor is powered up, with the correct input selected.

Start playback of the DVD player. Press the HTR 2 remote’s [Amp] Device Selector key, and then its (red) DVD/numeric 1 key to select the DVD input. You should hear multichannel or stereo sound, and see an image on the TV/monitor. (If one or the other fails to appear, you may need to use the receiver’s on-screen menu system to check assignment of audio, video, and digital inputs; see “Setting Up the T 753”.)

Enjoy the movie or music, but be sure to set aside time to read this manual thoroughly, and to set up, calibrate, and configure your T 753 carefully and completely.
