AUTOMATED TURN-ON LOGIC (ATO LOGIC)
The C 275BEE may be turned ON in any one of three discrete ways for
complete system flexibility - from the front panel standby button, the
12V-TRIGGER circuit or by the input signal-sensing circuit. The ON/OFF
power control is managed by the Automated Turn-On logic or ATO Logic
circuit that requires the C 275BEE to be switched back to standby mode in
the same manner by which it was activated. In other words, if the C 275BEE
is switched ON via a +12V-control signal, it cannot be switched to standby
mode via the front panel STANDBY button, it must wait for removal of the
+12V-control signal. In practice, you probably would use only one of the
methods once your C 275BEE is installed.

POWERDRIVE
The C 275BEE uses NAD’s proprietary PowerDrive™ amplifier technology
for all channels to preserve accurate, linear reproduction regardless of the
loudspeaker. This uniquely efficient power-supply topology provides the
real-world benefits of high dynamic power that remains uncompromised
by low-impedance speakers.
By adding a second high-voltage rail to our well regulated high-current
power supply, we get an “overdrive” that can nearly double the continuous
power on a short term dynamic power basis. PowerDrive offers greater
amplifier stability and low impedance drive capability, resulting in less
distortion when driving real speakers with real program material.
