Analog Gain: -12dB to 0dB. Gain adjustment allows all sources to play
back at the same volume level so you don't need to adjust the volume
every time a new source is selected. It is generally preferable to reduce the
level of the loudest source rather than making louder the softer sources.
Sample Rate (48 kHz, 96 kHz, 192 kHz): Select the user's preference
for sample rate of the Analog-to-Digital Converter. Higher sampling rates
allow for anti-aliasing filters to take effect further outside the audible
frequency range and are generally considered to sound better, especially in
the high frequencies. This option is applicable only for LINE 1 or LINE 2.

DIGITAL OUTPUT

SAMPLE RATE (48 kHz, 96 KHZ, 192 kHz)
Audio inputs may come from various sources with different sampling rates.
Select 48 kHz, 96 kHz or 192 kHz to convert all digital audio output content
to single sampling rate.

CONTROL SETUP

AUTO STANDBY
Allows the option of the M32 going to standby mode after 15 minutes of
inactivity or remain at operating mode regardless of any source activities.
ON: M32 will automatically go to standby mode if there are no user
interface interaction and no active source within 15 minutes.
OFF: M32 remains at operating mode even if there is no user interface
interaction and no active source within 15 minutes. This is the default setting.
IR CHANNEL
The M32 has the capability to operate via Alternate IR channel. This is useful
if you have two NAD products that can be operated by similar remote
control commands. With alternate IR Channel, two different NAD products
can be controlled independently in the same zone by setting each one to a
different IR channel.
IR Channel Assignment
The M32 and the HTRM 2 remote control must be set to the same channel.
To change the IR Channel on the HTRM 2 remote control
Include a channel number before the library code. For HTRM 2, library
code "100" is the default library table for "AMP" device. To select this
"AMP" library table for "IR Channel 0", retain the library code "100".
If you want to load the "AMP" library table on "IR Channel 1", prefix the
library code with "1" to indicate association with "IR Channel 1". Load
then the "AMP" library table using the code "1100".
Sample setup of two NAD products on the same Zone
M32 and T 787 are both defaulted to IR Channel 0. If [OFF] button is pressed
on the HTRM 2 remote control (or HTR 8 remote control for the T 787), both
products will go to standby mode. Press [ON] and both products will power
up from standby mode.
To prevent both products from simultaneously going in and out of standby
mode along with other common commands, set each one to a different
IR channel. In this setup, we will keep T 787 and HTR 8 remote control
defaulted to "IR Channel 0". As for M32, we will assign it to "IR Channel 1";
the same applies to HTRM 2.
Set M32 and HTRM 2 to "IR Channel 1" via the following procedure.
M32
Select "1" as the IR Channel setting of the M32.
HTRM 2
Ensure the M32 is powered-up ("on", not merely in standby).
1 Press and hold together the [AMP] and [A/V PSET] buttons until the
Learn LED (located between HTRM 2's ON and OFF buttons) turns
steady green. Release both buttons.
2 While keeping the HTRM 2 pointed towards M32, press "1", "1", "0" and "0"
using HTRM 2's numeric buttons.
3 Press [OFF]. If the M32 goes to standby mode, this indicates that the
library input is successful.
4 Press [ENTER] to accept the library code input and exit the Library
mode.
With both M32 and HTRM 2 set to "IR Channel 1", the M32 can now be
remotely controlled independent of the T 787.
NOTE
Performing a Factory Reset for HTRM 2 will result to a return to the
factory default "IR Channel 0" setting.

LISTENING TO COMPUTER

Use Type A to Type B cable connector to directly stream 24/192 PCM
content from your PC or MAC to the M32. Ensure that the Sound or Audio
device setting of your computer is set to "NAD USB Audio".
MINIMUM PC SYSTEM REQUIREMENT
Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 or higher, Microsoft Windows 7
FOR MAC USERS
Minimum Mac OS X Snow Leopard (version 10.6) and later versions
