1SPEAKERS: Connect the left and right terminals to the corresponding loudspeakers. Make sure that the “+” (red) terminal and “-” (black) terminal are connected to the corresponding “+” and “-” terminals of the loudspeaker. Use extra care to ensure that no stray wires or strands cross between posts or terminals at either end.

Notes

Use stranded wire of at least 16-gauge (AWG); specialized speaker cable may be valuable (consult your NAD audio specialist). Connections to the C 715 can be made with banana-type plugs, or using bare wire, or pins, by loosening the terminal’s plastic nut, making a clean, neat connection, and re-tightening carefully. To minimize the danger of short-circuits, ensure that only 1/2-inch of exposed wire or pin is employed in connecting.

This unit is designed to produce optimum sound quality when connected to speakers with impedances within the receiver’s operating range. Please check that speakers are rated to be 6 ohms minimum per speaker.

2FM, AM ANTENNA INPUT: Connect the supplied lead-type FM antenna to the FM antenna input. Extend the lead. Experiment freely with your antenna placement and orientation until you get the clearest sound and lowest background noise. Fix the antenna in the desired position by using thumb tacks, push pins or any suitable means.

The AM loop antenna supplied with the C 715 (or a suitable replacement) is required for AM reception. Open the clip terminal lever; insert the wire making sure to match the color-coded (white and black) ends of the wire to that of the terminal and close the lever ensuring that the lever locks the wire in place. Testing different positions for the antenna may improve reception; vertical orientation will usually produce the best results. Antenna proximity to large metal objects (appliances, radiators) may impair reception, as will attempts to lengthen the wire to the loop.

3OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT: Connect the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT port to the corresponding S/PDIF digital input of a compatible device such as CD recorders, receivers, computer soundcard or other digital processors.

4TAPE IN/OUT: Connections for analog recording and playback to an audio tape recorder of any type. Using twin RCA-to-RCA leads, connect the left and right “Audio Output” of the tape machine to the C 715’s TAPE IN sockets for playback and tape monitoring. Connect the left and right “Audio Input” of the tape machine to C 715’s TAPE OUT sockets for recording.

Note

There will be no output at TAPE OUT when TAPE is selected. Likewise, there will be no output at VIDEO OUT when VCR is the active source input. This prevents feedback through the recording component thereby preventing possible damage to your speakers.

5VCR IN/OUT: VCR may be used with recording components such as a cassette deck. Connect analog stereo audio from such source components into the C715’s VCR IN. Connect the C 715’s VCR OUT to the source components’ record-input. Note that VCR may freely be used for play-only components, in which case the OUT jacks would remain unconnected.

6AUX IN: Input for additional line level input such as another CD player. Use a twin RCA-to-RCA lead to connect the auxiliary unit’s left and right “Audio output” to this input.

7SUBWOOFER OUT: Connect this output to a powered (“active”) subwoofer (or to a power amplifier channel driving a passive system).

8AC LINE CORD: Plug the AC power cord into a live AC wall socket. Make sure all connections have been made before connecting to mains.
