UPGRADABILITY

The T 744 receiver permits flexible system growth via individually accessible pre-out and main-in jacks for three channels, enabling external amplifiers to be used for any of these while still maintaining utility of the receiver’s on-board power-amplifier channels for additional channels, remote-room links, or any other suitable purpose.

ABOUT THE HTR 2 SYSTEM REMOTE CONTROL

Packed with your T 744 is the NAD HTR 2 remote control, a full-system remote especially designed to be easy to use and easy to understand. Be sure to read the section “Using the HTR 2 Remote Control”, to familiarize yourself with the remote’s layout and operations before proceeding to setup your A/V receiver.

Chances are, you will want to use your HTR 2 as your primary way to command your entire A-V system. The HTR 2 can be employed to operate additional NAD or other-brand components such as a DVD/CD player, television, satellite/HDTV tuner, VCR, or virtually anything else that operates via standard infrared remote control.
