5. VIDEO 1 - VIDEO 4 (AUDIO & VIDEO)
Apart from the audio signal, these inputs will also
accept a video signal which will be routed to the
Monitor Out sockets (No. 8) for a television or video
projector. The Video 1, 2 and 3 inputs also have the
option of a Video Composite connection (using the
yellow RCA socket) or an S-Video connection (using
the Mini-Din connector).
The S-Video standard allows for higher quality
video signal transfer when compared to the Video
Composite standard. If your video components have
an S-Video connector use dedicated S-Video leads to
connect them to the T 760 in the same way as
described with the Video composite equivalents.
A video signal fed to an S-Video input socket will
be available on both the S-Video Monitor Out and
Video composite Monitor Out.
VIDEO 1 & VIDEO 2 (AUDIO)
Inputs for the audio playback and video signal from
a video device such as a stereo TV, DVD player,
satellite cable TV receiver or a Laser Disc. Using twin
RCA-to-RCA leads, connect to the left and right
‘Audio Out’ of the video device to these inputs. Using
a single RCA-to-RCA lead (Video Composite) or S-
Video lead, also connect the video output of the video
device; refer also to the description of S-Video and
Video Composite in section No. 5 of this chapter.
VIDEO 1 & VIDEO 2 can be used for video playback
only. Use VIDEO 3 or VIDEO 4 if you want to connect
a VCR for recording and playback through the T 760.
The optical Digital Input 1 (No. 6) is linked to the
Video 1 input. Select Video 1 to hear a source con-
nected to Digital Input 1.
The coaxial Digital Input 2 (No. 6) is linked to the
Video 2 input. Select Video 2 to hear a source con-
nected to Digital Input 2.
VIDEO 3 & VIDEO 4 (AUDIO)
Connections for the audio recording and playback
to a VCR or other video recorder. Using twin RCA-to-
RCA leads, connect to the left and right ‘Audio Out’ of
the VCR to the VIDEO 3 or VIDEO 4 IN connectors
for playback. Connect the left and right ‘Audio In’ of
the VCR to the VIDEO 3 or VIDEO 4 OUT connectors
for recording. Using a single RCA-to-RCA (Video
Composite) lead or S-Video lead, also connect the
video output of the VCR to Video In (only Video
Composite for Video 4) for Video playback. Connect
the Video Input of the VCR to Video Out of the NAD T
760 receiver for recording of video signals. Refer also
to the description of S-Video and Video Composite
above in this section.
6. DIGITAL AUDIO INPUTS
The T 760 has three digital audio inputs to allow for
connection of DVD, CD or other digital sources:
Digital Audio Input 1 allows for connection of a digi-
tal source with an Optical output. Use a cable termi-
nated with a TOS Link connector. This digital input is
linked to the Video 1 input.
Digital Audio Inputs 2 & 3 allow for connection of a
digital source with a Coaxial digital output. Use a
cable with the right impedance, specifically designed
for the transfer of digital signals. These digital inputs
are linked respectively to VIDEO INPUT 2 and
VIDEO INPUT 3.
7. AUDIO PRE-OUTS / SUBWOOFER OUT
AUDIO PRE-OUTS
The NAD T 760 receiver has five power amplifiers
built-in to power all the speakers connected to it (Left,
Right, Center, Left Surround, Right Surround). It is
also possible to use the T 760 as a pre-amplifier to
drive external power amplifiers. This way, you use all
the control functions the T 760 provides, such as
input select, surround mode, volume, tone controls,
etc., but the external power amplifier actually powers
the speaker connected to it instead of the T 760’s
integrated power amplifier for that channel.
Connect the RCA-to-RCA leads from the Front left
and Right, Center, and/or Surround Left and Right
Audio pre-out connectors to the external amplifiers.
Connect speakers to the external amplifiers.
NOTES:
Never connect the T 760’s speaker outputs and the
speaker outputs of an external amplifier to the same
speakers. When headphones are inserted the signals
from all audio pre-out outputs will be muted.
Before making any connections, check that the T
760 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.
SUBWOOFER OUT
Unlike for the full range five channels as described
above, there is no power amplifier built-in for an addi-
tional subwoofer. The Subwoofer pre-out allows for
connection to a sub-bass speaker system with its
own external or integrated power amplifier (“active”
subwoofers).
NOTE:
When headphones are inserted the signal from the
Subwoofer output will be muted.
8. MONITOR OUT
Composite Video and S-Video outputs for connect-
ing a TV or Video Monitor to view video sources con-
nected to VIDEO 1 to VIDEO 5. Using a Video RCA-
to-RCA lead, connect the ‘Video Line In’ on the TV or
monitor to the MONITOR OUT.
