Monitor Out; Surround Speakers - NAD T750 Owner's Manual

10. SOFT CLIPPING
When an amplifier is driven beyond its specified power output, a
hard, distorted sound can be heard on very loud sounds. This is
caused by the amplifier cutting off or 'hard clipping' the peaks of
sound that it was not designed to reproduce. The NAD Soft
Clipping circuit gently limits the output of the system to minimise
audible distortion if the amplifier is over driven.
If your listening involves moderate power levels you may leave the
Soft Clipping switch off. If you are likely to play at high levels that
exceed the amplifier's power capability, then switch Soft Clipping on.
11. VIDEO 1 TO 3 (VIDEO)
Connection for the Composite video signal input for VIDEO 1,
VIDEO 2 or VIDEO 3 . Using a RCA-to-RCA lead, connect the 'Video
Out' of the VCR, TV, Laser Disc or satellite/cable unit. VIDEO 1 to
3 can be used for video playback only. Use VIDEO 4 if you want to
connect a VCR for recording and playback through the T750.
12. VIDEO 4 (VIDEO)
Connection for the Composite video signal input for VIDEO 4. Using
a RCA-to-RCA lead, connect the 'Video Out' of the VCR to VIDEO 4
IN for playback. Connect VIDEO 4 OUT to the 'Video In' of the VCR
to copy video signals from VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2 or VIDEO 3.

13. MONITOR OUT

Composite video output for connecting a TV or Video Monitor to
view video sources connected to VIDEO 1 to VIDEO 4. Using a
RCA-to-RCA lead, connect the 'Video Line In' on the TV or monitor
to the MONITOR OUT. This output can also be used as an
additional recording output if required. Video monitoring must
then be done via the output of the video recorder.
14. AUDIO PRE-OUTS
The NAD T750 receiver has five power amplifiers built-in to power
all the speakers connected to it (Left, Right, Centre, Left Surround,
Right Surround). It is also possible to use the T750 as a pre-
amplifier to drive external power amplifiers. This way, you use all
the control functions the T750 provides, such as input select,
surround mode, volume, tone controls, etc., but the external
power amplifier actually powers the speaker connected it instead
of the T750's integrated power amplifier for that channel.
Connect the RCA-to-RCA leads from the Front left and Right, Centre,
and/or Surround Left and Right Audio pre-out connectors to the
external amplifiers. Connect speakers to the external amplifiers.
NOTES: Never connect the T750's speaker outputs and the
speaker outputs of an external amplifier to the same speakers.
Make sure the T750 and the power amplifiers it will be connected
to are switched off. With volume turned down to a low level,
switch power on only after all connections have been made.
15. SUB WOOFER OUT
Unlike for the full range five channels as described above, there is
no power amplifier built-in for an additional subwoofer. The
Subwoofer pre-out allows for connection to a sub-bass speaker
system with its own power amplifier.

16. FRONT SPEAKERS
These speaker outputs are switched on and off by using the
SPEAKERS button on the front panel.
Connect the right speaker to the terminals market 'R +' and 'R -'
ensuring that the 'R +' is connected to the '+' terminal on your
loudspeaker and the 'R -' is connected to the loudspeaker's '-'
terminal. Connect the terminals marked 'L +' and 'L -' to the left
speaker in the same way.
Always use heavy duty (16 gauge; 1.5mm or thicker) stranded
wire to connect loudspeakers to your T750.
Unscrew the speaker terminal's plastic bushing. Insert the pin or
bare cable end into the hole of the terminal and then secure the
cable by tightening down the terminal's bushing (Fig. 3).
To avoid any danger of bare metal from the speaker cables
touching the back panel or another connector, ensure that there
is only 1/2" (1.27cm) of bare cable or pin and no loose strands
of speaker wire.
CAUTION: This unit is designed to produce optimum sound
quality when speakers with impedances within the set's ranges are
connected. Please check the following information and choose
speakers with the correct impedances for the connections.
FRONT SPEAKERS: 4 ohms min. per speaker
CENTRE SPEAKER: 4 ohms min.
SURROUND SPEAKERS: 6 ohms min. per speaker
17. CENTER SPEAKER
This connects the centre loudspeaker that is used when the T750
is operated in Dolby* Pro Logic, Dolby 3 stereo mode or with the
5.1 Ch. input selected. Connect the 'Center +' to the '+' terminal
on your centre loudspeaker and the 'Center -' to the loudspeaker's
'-' terminal.
Strip 1/2" (1.27cm) of insulation from the end of the speaker
cable and twist the bare wires so that there are no loose strands.
These terminals operate in the same way as the Front Speaker
terminals. These speakers operate in conjunction with the Front
Speakers and are switched on and off by using the SPEAKERS
button on the front panel.

18. SURROUND SPEAKERS

This connects the rear loudspeakers that are used when the T750
is operated in Dolby Pro Logic, Hall modes or with the 5.1
Ch. input. Connect the right Surround speaker to the terminals
market 'R +' and 'R -' ensuring that the 'R +' is connected to the
'+' terminal on your loudspeaker and the 'R -' is connected to the
loudspeaker's '-' terminal. Connect the terminals marked 'L +'
and 'L -' to the left speaker in the same way.
Strip 1/2" (1.27cm) of insulation from the end of the speaker
cable and twist the bare wires so that there are no loose strands.
These terminals operate in the same way as the Front Speaker
terminals. These speakers operate in conjunction with the Front
Speakers and are switched on and off by using the SPEAKERS
button on the front panel.
19. NAD-LINK IN OUT
The NAD-Link connector is used to pass commands from other
units fitted with NAD-Link connectors. This allows centralised
control of a complete system, and also allows some of the basic
functions of other NAD components (such as a CD player or
cassette deck) also equipped with NAD-Link to be controlled with
the receiver's remote control. To function with such other units,
connect the T750's NAD-Link Out to the NAD-Link In on the other
unit. NAD-Link connectors can be daisy-chained, IN to OUT, so
that a whole system can be controlled from the remote control
facilities of one unit.
