UNPACKING AND SETUP
what’S in the box
Packed with your T 517 you will find:
•
An audio/video cable connector
•
The DVD 8 remote control with 2 (two) AAA batteries
•
This owner’s manual
Save the packaging
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your T 517 arrived.
Should you move or otherwise need to transport your T 517, 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 T 517’s front panel and your primary listening/viewing
position - this will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications.
The T 517 generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should
trouble adjacent components. It is perfectly possible to stack the T 517 on
top of other components.
QUICK START
In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your new
NAD T 517, we provide the following “Quick Start” instructions to get you
underway.
Please make all the connections to your T 517 with the unit unplugged. It is
also advisable to power-down or unplug all associated components while
making or breaking any signal or AC power connections.

manual thoroughly to set up and configure your T 517 according to your
preference.
ABOUT THE T 517
Though the T 517 is among the most technically sophisticated DVD/CD/MP
players, 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 T 517 includes the High Definition Digital Interface (HDMI) with
HDCP encryption, allowing high definition audio and video signals
to be transferred among applicable components, processors and TV
Displays in a purely digital format.
•
HDMI digital video output with upscaling up to 720p, 1080i and 1080p
depending upon your TV’s compatibility.
•
Using the high quality 12-bit 148-MHz video DAC, the T 517 ensures
highly accurate playback of delicate, low-level video signals as well as
produce vivid picture that is faithful in every detail. On the other hand,
the audiophile quality 24-bit, 192-kHz audio D/A converters make the
T 517 well protected from noise caused by even minute fluctuations
in current from the power supply. This high performance audio D/A
converter ensures that all the sound you hear is as clear and noise free
as possible thereby maintaining the delivery of dynamic, smooth and
expansive audio sound.
•
The T 517 has exceptional playability. It has support for DVD video,
DVD±R, DVD±RW, VCD/SVCD with playback control (PBC), Audio CD
and CD-R/CD-RW that contains audio titles, DivX, MP3, WMA and JPEG
files.
