4  OPTICAL IN 1-2/COAXIAL IN 1-2

• 

Use applicable connectors (not supplied) to connect OPTICAL 
IN 1-2 and/or COAXIAL IN 1-2 terminals to corresponding Digital 
Audio Output terminals of compatible external devices such as 
preamplifiers, processors or other applicable devices.

• 

Configure LINE INPUT 1-8 via INPUT/OUTPUT menu of the web-
based CI 8-150 User Interface. OPTICAL IN 1-2 and/or COAXIAL 
IN 1-2 sources can be assigned to a specific or multiple speaker 
OUTPUT channel(s). 

5  GLOBAL A, GLOBAL B IN/OUT

• 

These IN/OUT terminals are dedicated only to GLOBAL settings.

• 

Configure GLOBAL A/GLOBAL B via the INPUT/OUTPUT menu of the 
web-based CI 8-150 User Interface.

GLOBAL A IN, GLOBAL B IN 

• 

Use RCA-to-RCA leads to connect Audio Output terminals from 
compatible external devices such as preamplifiers, processors 
or other applicable devices to GLOBAL A IN and/or GLOBAL B IN 
terminals. 

• 

If GLOBAL A and/or GLOBAL B are turned ON in the web-based 
CI 8-150 User Interface, the source(s) connected to GLOBAL IN 
terminals will become the active input defeating all other active line 
input channels. 

• 

GLOBAL A takes priority over GLOBAL B.

GLOBAL A OUT, GLOBAL B OUT

• 

Use RCA-to-RCA leads to connect GLOBAL A and/or GLOBAL B OUT 
terminals to audio INPUT terminals of compatible external devices 
such as amplifiers, receivers or other applicable devices. 

• 

The GLOBAL OUT terminals are line level “loop through” output. 
The same level of input signal from corresponding GLOBAL IN 
is available at the corresponding GLOBAL OUT terminal thereby 
allowing the same signal to be shared or passed on to another 
amplifier.

• 

At standby mode, line level “loop through” output at GLOBAL A 
OUT and GLOBAL B OUT terminals remain available as long as the 
sources for GLOBAL A IN and GLOBAL B IN are active. 

6  LINE INPUT (1-8)

• 

Use RCA-to-RCA leads to connect the LINE INPUT terminals to 
corresponding Audio Output terminals of compatible external 
devices such as preamplifiers, processors or other applicable 
devices. 

• 

Configure LINE INPUT 1-8 via INPUT/OUTPUT menu of the web-
based CI 8-150 User Interface. Each LINE INPUT source can be 
assigned to a specific or multiple speaker OUTPUT channel(s). 

• 

The LINE INPUT ports are numbered 1 to 8. LINE INPUT channels with 
active input signal will have their corresponding front panel LINE INPUT 
LED indicators illuminated in blue. If there is no active input signal 
connected to a particular LINE INPUT, the corresponding front panel 
LINE INPUT LED indicator will not light up.

7  FUSE HOLDER

• 

In the unlikely event a fuse needs to be replaced, unplug the 
AC power cord from the mains power outlet. Then, remove all 
connections from the amplifier. Use a flathead screwdriver or similar 
to open the fuse holder via the slot located at the top edge of 
the fuse holder. With the screwdriver in place, push it outward to 
unlatch and open the fuse holder.

• 

Only replace the fuse with the same type, size, and specification – 
T15AL 250V.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

 

Do not use any substitute fuse of different type, rating or value. Failure 
to observe this precaution may cause damage to the amplifier circuits 
and may create a fire hazard and/or defeat the safety built into the 
amplifier and may void the warranty.

8 LAN 

• 

LAN connection must be setup for wired connection to be 
established. Set up a Wired Ethernet broadband router with 
broadband internet connection. Your router or home network 
should have a built-in DHCP server to consummate the connection. 

• 

Using a standard straight-through Ethernet cable (not supplied), 
connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the LAN port of your 
wired Ethernet broadband router and the other end to CI 8-150’s 
LAN port. 

NOTES 

•  NAD is not responsible for any malfunction of the CI 8-150 and/or the 

internet connection due to communication errors or malfunctions 
associated with your broadband internet connection or other 
connected equipment. Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) for 
assistance or the service bureau of your other equipment. 

•  Contact your ISP for policies, charges, content restrictions, service 

limitations, bandwidth, repair and other related issues pertinent to 
internet connectivity. 

9  +12V TRIGGER IN 

+12V TRIGGER IN – ON/OFF

• 

This dual function switch alternates between sensing a +12V input 
as applied through the +12V TRIGGER IN and def12V 
TRIGGER IN. 

• 

At ON setting and with the +12V TRIGGER IN of CI 8-150 connected 
to a compatible external device that is equipped with a +12V DC 
trigger output, the CI 8-150 can be switched remotely from standby 
mode to operating mode and vice-versa. This is dependent upon 
the presence or absence of +12V DC supply at +12V TRIGGER IN 
(refer also to item about +12V TRIGGER IN +/-).

• 

With +12V TRIGGER IN-ON/OFF switch set to ON, the CI 8-150 
cannot be powered from standby to operating mode and vice-
versa. The function of powering up/down the CI 8-150 is handled 
by the compatible external device where +12V TRIGGER IN is 
connected.

• 

+12V TRIGGER IN is disabled when +12V TRIGGER IN - ON/OFF 
switch is set to OFF. This is the default setting and allows the 
CI 8-150 to power up normally.

+12V TRIGGER IN +/- 

• 

Use the supplied 12V TRIGGER terminal block to c12V 
TRIGGER IN +/- terminals to corresponding terminals of compatible 
ex12V TRIGGER source. Install the wired up 12V TRIGGER 
terminal block to CI 8-150’s +12V TRIGGER IN +/- rear panel terminal.

• 

The +12V TRIGGER IN allows the CI 8-150 to be remotely switched 
from standby mode to operating mode and vice-versa by the 
external controlling device where +12V TRIGGER IN is connected to. 
The external controlling device, such as compatible preamplifiers, 
integrated amplifiers, receivers, etc., must be equipped with +12V 
trigger output to use this feature.

• 

Refer also to the item about “12V TRIGGER- ON/OFF”.
