ATTENTION!

Please make all connections to your T 762 receiver with the unit powered off or unplugged. (It is also advisable to power-down or unplug all associated components while making or breaking any signal or AC power connections.)

1FM & AM ANTENNA: The supplied wire “dipole” FM antenna will connect to the FM connector using the supplied “balun” adapter. It will usually work best when mounted on a vertical surface such as a wall, with arms fully outstretched forming a horizontal “T” perpendicular to the origin point of the signal. Experiment with placement and orientation of to yield the clearest sound and lowest background noise. In areas of difficult FM reception an external FM antenna can yield dramatic gains in quality; consult your NAD audio specialist or a professional antenna installer.

The AM loop antenna supplied with the T 762 (or a suitable replacement) is required for AM reception. Open the clip terminal lever, insert the wire and close, 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.

NOTE: An external AM antenna can improve long-distance reception substantially; consult your NAD audio specialist or a professional antenna installer. Do not connect anything other than a loop antenna to the AM ANTENNA terminal. Do not remove the AM loop antenna.

2MAIN IN/AUDIO PRE-OUTS/SUBWOOFER OUT: The T 762’s six built-in power amplifier channels will deliver excellent quality with even very demanding, low sensitivity home-theatre speaker systems. However, it is also possible to use the T 762 as a pre-amplifier with external power amplifiers for some or all channels (remove the supplied jumpers) if necessary. Unlike the six full range channels, there is no power amplifier built- into the T 762 for a subwoofer.

Connect the SW output 1, 2 or both to powered (“active”) subwoofers (or to power amplifier channels driving a passive system).

SURR-BACK-R jack will supply the same signal from the surround-back Left channel if the T 762 is so configured (see “Speaker Setup,” below). Either one or both channels are available mono or stereo as per “Speaker Setup”. Connect to one or two channels of an appropriate external power amplifier or other amplified component to furnish amplification for one or two surround back speakers. Your NAD audio specialist will be happy to advise you.

NOTE: Never connect the T 762’s speaker outputs and the speaker outputs of an external amplifier to the same speakers.

3SOFT CLIPPING: Enables NAD’s proprietary Soft Clipping circuitry on all channels. Soft Clipping gently limits the output of the T 762 to minimize audible distortion, even should the receiver be over-driven.

NOTE: Soft Clipping may simply be left on at all times to reduce the likelihood of audible distortion from excessive volume settings. However, for critical listening, to preserve optimum dynamics you may wish to defeat it by setting this switch off.

4MONITOR OUT: Connect to video input of the monitor/television, using quality dual-RCA and/or S-Video cables designed for video signals. In general, the S-Video connection is superior and should be used if your TV/monitor provides the corresponding input.

NOTE: The T 762 “transcodes” S-Video to composite-video signals, so that S-Video signals connected to the DVD, SAT, VCR, and VIDEO 4-6 inputs will be present at both the S-Video and composite MONITOR OUT jacks when any of these inputs is selected. This provides the convenience of requiring only a single video connection (usually S-Video) between the T 762 and the TV/monitor.

5MS OUT (MULTISOURCE OUT): Connect this pre-amp and composite video output to other zones using high-quality patch cables to reduce noise pickup over long distance runs.

6CD: Connect the analog stereo audio output from a CD player or other line-level audio source to this input.

7IR: These mini-jacks accept and output remote-control codes in electrical format, using industry-standard protocols, for use with “IR-repeater” and multi-room systems and related technologies. Consult your NAD audio specialist for more information.
