5. INPUT SELECTORS
These buttons select the active input to the NAD C160 and the
signal sent to the Tape outputs and the PRE OUT 1 & 2 sockets.
The buttons on the remote control handset duplicate these
buttons, with the exception of the tuner input; see below. An LED
over each input selector button indicates which input has been
selected.
PHONO elects the turntable connected to either the PHONO MM
or MC sockets as the active input.
CD Selects the CD (or other line-level source) connected to the
CD sockets, as the active input.
VIDEO Selects the VCR (or stereo TV/Satellite/Cable pre-
amplifier) connected to the VIDEO sockets, as the active input.
AUX Selects a line-level source connected to the AUX sockets, as
the active input.
TUNER Selects the tuner (or other line-level source) connected
to the Tuner sockets, as the active input. The remote control
handset has separate buttons for AM and FM; pressing either one
will select the C160’s tuner input.
TAPE 2 Selects Tape 2 as the active input.
TAPE 1 Monitor
Selects the output from a tape recorder when
playing back tapes or monitoring recordings being made through
the Tape 1 sockets. Press the Tape 1 button once to select it and
again to return to the normal input selection.
Tape 1 is a tape Monitor function which does not override the
current input selection. For example, if the CD is the active input
when TAPE 1 is selected, then the CD signal will continue to be
selected and sent to both the TAPE 2, and TAPE 1 OUTPUT sockets,
but it is the sound from recorder connected to Tape 1 that will be
heard. Apart from the amber LED to indicate Tape 1 is engaged,
the green LED for the active input will also stay lit.
NOTE: The remote control handset with the C160 supplied is of a
universal NAD type, designed to operate several NAD models.
Some buttons on this handset are inoperative as the functions
aren’t supported by the C160. The Video 2 and Video 3 input
selector buttons on the remote control handset are inoperative in
the case of the C160.
6. BASS & TREBLE CONTROLS
The NAD C160 is fitted with BASS and TREBLE tone controls to
adjust the tonal balance of your system.
The 12 o’clock position is ‘flat’ with no boost or cut and a detent
indicates this position. Rotate the control clockwise to increase
the amount of Bass or Treble. Rotate the control anti-clockwise to
decrease the amount of Bass or Treble. The Tone controls do not
affect recordings made using the Tape outputs.
7. TONE DEFEAT
The TONE DEFEAT switch by-passes the tone control section of the
NAD C160. If the Tone Controls are not normally used and left in
the 12 o’clock position, then it is advisable to switch out the Tone
Control section altogether by using this switch. In the ‘out’
position, the Tone Control circuits are active, pushing the TONE
DEFEAT switch ‘in’ bypasses the Tone Control section.
8. BALANCE
The BALANCE control adjusts the relative levels of the left and right
speakers. The 12 o’clock position provides equal level to the left
and right channels. A detent indicates this position.
Rotating the control clockwise moves the balance towards the
right. Rotating the control anti-clockwise moves the balance to the
left. The BALANCE control does not affect recordings made using
the Tape outputs.
9. VOLUME
The VOLUME control adjusts the overall loudness of the signals
being fed to the loudspeakers. It is motor driven and can be
adjusted from the remote control handset. The VOLUME control
does not affect recordings made using the Tape outputs.
On the remote control handset, press the MUTE Button to
temporarily switch off the sound to the speakers and headphones.
Mute mode is indicated by the active input LED flashing. Press
MUTE again to restore sound. Mute does not affect recordings
made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal going to the
Pre-amp output (Pre Out).
TO MAKE A RECORDING
When any source is selected, its signal is also fed directly to any
tape machine connected to the TAPE 2 or TAPE 1 OUTPUTS for
recording.
TAPE TO TAPE COPYING
You can copy between two tape machines connected to your NAD
C160. Put the source tape in the recorder connected to Tape 2 and
the blank tape into the recorder connected to Tape 1. By selecting
TAPE 2 Input you can now record from Tape 2 to Tape 1 and
monitor the signal coming from the original tape.
REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET
The Remote Control handset handles all the key functions of the
NAD C160 and has additional controls to remotely operate NAD
Tuners, Cassette and CD machines. It will operate up to a distance
