16 Input selectors - These buttons select the active input to the C720BEE and the signal sent to the loudspeakers, the Tape output and the PRE OUT sockets. The buttons on the remote control handset duplicate these buttons, with the exception of the Video 1 input.

DISC Selects a line-level source connected to the DISC sockets as the active input.

CD Selects the CD (or other line-level source) connected to the CD sockets as the active input.

VIDEO Selects the VCR (or stereo TV/Satellite/Cable receiver) connected to the VIDEO sockets as the active input.

AUX Selects a line-level source connected to the AUX sockets as the active input.

17 SPEAKER A & B - The Speakers A and B buttons engage or disengage the speakers connected respectively to the Speakers A and Speakers B terminals on the rear panel. Press A to switch the speakers connected to the speaker A terminals On or Off. Press B to switch the speakers connected to the speaker A terminals On or Off. The indicator directly over the buttons shows the status of both speakers A and B.

If Speakers A and B are both engaged (both indicators over the Speakers A and B buttons are lit), the amplifier's output power is fed to both sets of speakers in parallel. If speakers A and B are disengaged, both sets of speakers are silenced. You can use this setting mode to listen to headphones.

18 PHONES Socket - A 1/4" stereo jack socket is supplied for headphone listening and will work with conventional headphones of any impedance. The volume, tone and balance controls are operative for headphone listening. Use a suitable adapter to connect headphones with other types of sockets, such as 3.5mm stereo 'personal stereo' jack plugs.

NOTE:

Make certain that the volume control is turned to minimum (fully anti-clockwise) before connecting or disconnecting headphones. Listening at high levels can damage your hearing.

ABOUT THE C 720BEE

REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET

The Remote Control handset handles all the key functions of the NAD C720BEE and has additional controls to remotely operate NAD Cassette and CD machines. It will operate up to a distance of 16ft (5m). Alkaline batteries are recommended for maximum operating life. Two AAA (R

03)batteries should be fitted in the battery compartment at the back of the Remote Control handset. When replacing batteries, check that they have been put in the right way round, as indicated on the base of the battery compartment.

Please refer to previous sections of the manual for a full description of individual functions.

When a command from the remote control is received, the Standby/protection indicator will blink.

1POWER ON & OFF - The NAD C720BEE remote has a separate On and Off button. This can be particularly useful to keep components within a system "insync": This way all components will switch to stand-by when Off is pressed or switch to operating mode when On is pressed, instead of some components switching On when the amplifier is switched to Stand-by. (Note that the other components have to be capable of responding to the separate On and Off commands as well). Press the ON button to switch the unit from Stand-by to the operating mode; The Stand-by indicator (Fig. 2; No. 2) will turn from amber, to red, then to green. Press the OFF button to switch the unit to the Stand-by mode: The Stand-by indicator will light up amber.

2INPUTS - The input selector buttons perform the same functions as the buttons labelled the same on the front panel.

3Numeric Keys - The numeric keys allow for direct input of tracks for CD-players, and direct channel/preset access for the tuner.

4MASTER VOLUME - Press the MASTER VOLUME or buttons to respectively increase or decrease the loudness level. Release the button when the desired level is reached. The motorised Volume Control on the front panel will indicate the level set. The Master Volume buttons do not affect recordings made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal going to the Pre-amp outputs.

5MUTE - Press the MUTE Button to temporarily switch off the sound to the speakers and headphones. Mute mode is indicated by the MUTE icon in the VFD. Press MUTE again to restore sound. Mute does not affect recordings made using the Tape output but will affect the signal going to the Preamp outputs.

6TUNER CONTROL - TUNE or scans respectively higher or

lower station frequencies for both AM and FM.

PRESET or selects respectively higher or lower number station preset.
