nac 102 operation
power supplies
The nac 102 does not incorporate an internal power supply. It must be used in conjunction with either
a naim power amplifier incorporating a preamp power supply or with a supercap, hi-cap or flatcap 2
power supply.
preamplifier inputs
Inputs 1a, 2
and
3
are standard high level inputs.
Alternatively,
input1
can be converted into a phono input. A simple modification enables a range of
plug in boards to be fitted. Connection is then made via the BNC sockets (1b). Please see your dealer
for further details.
Inputs 4, 5
and
6
are standard high level inputs and also have record output facilities, so these should
be assigned to your tape recorder, cassette deck or VCR.
tape facilities and monitor button
The tape monitor button (mon) allows you to listen to the output of a tape recorder while recording,
which can be useful with a 3-head tape machine to monitor the “off-tape” signal. The source for
recording is chosen by the input selector buttons.
Operating the monitor button during recording allows the output from the tape machine connected
to input 4 to be heard, unless input 4 is chosen on the input selector switch, i.e. for tape to tape
recording, in which case the output of the tape machine connected to input 5 will be heard. No
monitor facility is available on input 6.
With the mute button selected there will be no output to the loudspeakers, from any input. This will
not affect any recordings taking place at the same time.
remote control
For operation of the nac 102 with the NARCOM 2 remote handset please see pages 18 and 19.
Note: As there is no mono facility available on the nac102, the “mono” facility on the remote handset
operates the tape monitor circuit.
