•
This owner’s manual
Save the packaging
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your C 725BEE
arrived. Should you move or otherwise need to transport your C 725BEE,
this is by far the safest container in which to do so. We’ve seen too many
otherwise perfect components damaged in transit for lack of a proper
shipping carton, so please: Save that box!
CHOOSING A LOCATION
Choose a location that is well ventilated (with at least several inches to
both sides and behind), and that will provide a clear line of sight, within
23 feet/7 meters, between the C 725BEE’s front panel and your primary
listening/viewing position - this will ensure reliable infrared remote control
communications. The C 725BEE generates a modest amount of heat, but
nothing that should trouble adjacent components.
NOTES ON INSTALLATION
Your C 725BEE should be placed on a firm, level surface. Avoid placing the
unit in direct sunlight or near sources of heat and damp. Allow adequate
ventilation. Do not place the unit on a soft surface like a carpet. Do not
place it in an enclosed position such a bookcase or cabinet that may
impede the air-flow through the ventilation slots.
Make sure the unit is switched off before making any connections.
The RCA sockets on your C 725BEE are color coded for convenience. Red
and white are Right and Left audio respectively.
Use high quality leads and sockets for optimum performance and reliability.
Ensure that leads and sockets are not damaged in any way and all sockets
are firmly pushed home.
For best performance, use quality speaker leads of 16 gauge (1.5mm)
thickness or more.
If you intend not to use the C 725BEE for long periods of time, switch OFF
the rear panel POWER switch.
Should water get into your C 725BEE, shut off the power to the unit and
disconnect the plug from the AC wall outlet. Have the unit inspected by a
qualified service technician before attempting to use it again.
do not remove the cover; there are no uSer-Serviceable
partS inSide.
Use a dry soft cloth to clean the unit. If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth
with soapy water. Do not use solutions containing benzol or other volatile
agents.
ABOUT THE C 725BEE
Though the C 725BEE is among the most technically sophisticated Stereo
Receivers, we worked hard to make it one of the most musically transparent
components available as well. This is what we mean by NAD’s “Music First”
design philosophy. Here are just a few examples
•
The C 725BEE uses NAD’s proprietary Power Drive™ amplifier technology
for all channels to preserve accurate, linear reproduction regardless of the
loudspeaker. This uniquely efficient power-supply topology provides the
real-world benefits of high dynamic power that remains uncompromised
by low-impedance speakers. By adding a second high-voltage rail to our
well regulated high-current power supply, we get an “overdrive” that can
nearly double the continuous power on a short term dynamic power basis.
The result is dynamic, detailed,”un-receiver-like” sound in stereo mode.
NAD’s exclusive Soft Clipping™ circuitry further enhances sound quality and
dynamic potential.
•
High-performance components used throughout the receiver’s analog
audio circuits to maximize quality from all sources.
•
Preamp output and main-amp input jacks make potential expansion as
flexible as possible.
•
A Second set of Speaker terminals (Speakers B) for remote listening.
•
An RS-232 port for advanced zone control and software update through
a Windows® compatible PC.
•
Gold-surfaced connectors are employed throughout to ensure
maximum signal integrity.
