AUDIO 3-4 OUT

 

Connect AUDIO 3 OUT (and/or AUDIO 4 OUT) to corresponding 
recording components or audio input ports of compatible sources 
like cassette deck, CD/DVD recorder or outboard audio processors. 

 

The signal present at AUDIO 3-4 OUT is determined by the current 
source selected. There will be no output at AUDIO 3 OUT when 
AUDIO 3 is selected.  Likewise, there will be no output at AUDIO 
4 OUT when AUDIO 4 is the active source input. This prevents 
feedback through the recording component thereby preventing 
possible damage to your speakers.

 

When configured, AUDIO 3 OUT and AUDIO 4 OUT are the same 
assigned ports for Zone 3 and Zone 4 respectively. See also Zone 
output description below.

4  7.1 CHANNEL INPUT

 

Connect to the corresponding analog audio output of a 
multichannel source component such as a DVD-Audio or 
multichannel-SACD player or external multichannel decoder (disc 
copy protected formats only allow analog signal transfer). Typically, 
these sources will produce 5.1-channel output, in which case the 
Surround Back jacks are left unconnected. The signal present at 
these jacks can be heard by selecting Source 7 (7.1 CHANNEL INPUT 
is defaulted to this Source).

 

There is no bass-management or other processing (other than 
master-volume control) available to this 7.1 channel input. 

 

While the multichannel audio output of a DVD/BD player can be 
connected to these jacks, using the T 787’s own Dolby Digital and 
DTS decoding and digital-analog converters via a digital connection 
will usually produce superior results.

5  XM MODULE INPUT (120V version model only) 

With XM radio, there are more than 100 channels of music, news, sports, 
comedy, talk and entertainment. You will find that the coverage is 
continent wide. The music quality is digital with many commercial-free 
music channels. 

 

Connect XM radio cable to this socket. Follow the instructions that 
came with your XM radio.

 

Refer also to the “LISTENING TO XM RADIO” segment of the 
“OPERATION” section.

NOTE

 

The external XM radio is not supplied with your T 787.

DAB MODULE INPUT (230V version model only)

The T 787 is compatible only with the NAD DAB Adaptor module 
models DB 1 or DB 2. With DAB, you can receive CD-like quality 
programs without any annoying interference and signal distortion.

 

Plug-in the other end of the Mini-Din connector from the NAD DAB 
Adaptor module output port into this socket.

 

Refer also to the item about “LISTENING TO DAB RADIO” segment of 
the “OPERATION” section.

NOTE

 

The external NAD DAB Adaptor module is not supplied with your T 787.

6  SOFT CLIPPING

• 

Enables NAD’s proprietary Soft Clipping circuitry on all channels. 

• 

At ON position, Soft Clipping gently limits the output of the T 787 to 
minimize audible distortion should the T 787 be over-driven. 

• 

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 and to preserve optimum dynamics, 
you may wish to defeat it by setting this switch to OFF. 

7  RS 232

NAD is a certified partner of AMX and Crestron and fully supports 
these external devices. Check out the NAD website for information 
about AMX and Crestron compatibility with NAD.  See your NAD audio 
specialist for more information.

 

Connect this interface using RS-232 serial cable (not supplied) to 
any Windows compatible PC to allow remote control of the T 787 
via compatible external controllers. 

 

Refer to the NAD website for information about RS232 Protocol 
documents and PC interface program.

8  +12V TRIGGER OUT 

The T 787 has three +12V TRIGGER OUT ports (OUT 1, OUT2 and OUT3) 
that can be configured to 12V DC to a linked component or 
system.  See discussion on “Trigger Setup” at the “Setup Menu” literature 
for guidelines on how to con12V TRIGGER IN/OUT.

 

Use a 3.5mm mini-jack connector to pass +12 volts at a maximum 
current of 50 milliamps to an auxiliary equipment such as a 
multichannel amplifier or subwoofer. The center conductor (hot) of 
the 3.5mm jack is the control signal. The outside conductor (shield) 
is the ground return-path. 

 

This output will be 12V when the T 787 is ON and 0V when the unit 
is either OFF or in standby mode.  

+12V TRIGGER IN 

With this input triggered by a 12V DC supply, the T 787 can be switched 
ON remotely from standby mode by compatible devices such as 
amplifiers, preamplifiers, receivers, etc. If the 12V DC supply is cut off, 
the T 787 will return to standby mode.

 

Connect this +12V Trigger input to the remote device’s 
corresp12V DC output jack using a mono cable with 
3.5mm male plug. The controlling device must be equipped with a 
+12V trigger output to use this feature. 

9  IR IN/IR OUT 1-3

These mini-jacks accept and output remote-controlled codes in 
electrical format, using industry-standard protocols, for use with “IR-
repeater” and multi-room systems and related technologies. 

 

All NAD products with IR IN/IR OUT features are fully compatible 
with the T 787. For non-NAD models, please check with your other 
product’s service specialists as to their compatibility to the T 787’s IR 
features.

IR IN 

 

This input is connected to the output of an IR (infrared) repeater 
(Xantech or similar) or the IR output of another compatible device 
to allow control of the T 787 from a remote location.

IR OUT 1, IR OUT 2

 

Connect IR OUT 1 (and/or IR OUT 2) to the IR IN jack of a compatible 
device.  

 

Command and control the linked compatible device by directing its 
own remote control to T 787’s infrared receiver.

IR IN and IR OUT 1, IR OUT 2, IR OUT 3

 

Connect the T 787’s IR IN to the IR OUT of a compatible device. 
Connect also the T 787’s IR OUT 1 (and/or IR OUT 2, IR OUT 3) to the 
IR IN of a compatible device. 

 

With this setup, the T 787 acts as an “IR-repeater” allowing the device 
connected to the T 787’ s IR IN control or command of the other 
device linked to T 787’s IR OUT 1 (and/or IR OUT 2, IR OUT 3). 

 

IR OUT 3

 

IR OUT 3 can only function as an “IR-repeater” as described above.
