Modular Design Construction
NAD has developed a unique new architecture that keeps pace with the fast
changing world of digital formats by allowing connectivity and feature upgrades
as new technology becomes available. This prevents premature obsolescence by
keeping pace with the latest developments in high performance audio and video
formats. Dealer installed hardware and software can add new connectivity and
features at a future date, allowing your T 765 to grow as your needs and tastes
develop. Most AV receivers require complete replacement with a new model to get
the latest features. With NAD you only replace the module you want to upgrade
– not the entire AV receiver!
Audio Performance
Today’s advanced Surround Sound receivers require quality in the digital decoding
stages, the video processing section, and in the power amplifier design for the best
overall performance. The T 765 is an excellent example of the NAD Design Team’s
expertise in all three areas. Not only that, but we have made many ergonomic
refinements to simplify operation and make it more enjoyable to get all the
performance from this magnificently capable receiver.
The AM 100 Audio Module uses the latest Dual Core Floating Point DSP
technology. NAD was able to include the newest surround formats from Dolby
and DTS, as well as NAD’s own highly regarded music surround mode - EARS. The
EARS circuit (Enhanced Ambient Recovery System) is now optimized for 7-channel
surround. Unlike the typical artificially enhanced DSP modes like ‘Club’, ‘Stadium’,
and ‘Church’, EARS uses DSP technology to extract the natural ambience of the
recording. This is redirected to the surround channels to create natural surround
sound from any 2-channel source. This induces a warm natural reverberant effect
without the hollow ‘BOING’ of artificial reverb. The surround mode of the source
material is automatically detected via the digital inputs of the T 765, and the most
advanced form of decoding is switched in. Conversion of the encoded digital
bitstream is performed with high resolution and extremely linear D/A Converters
carefully selected for their performance capabilities.
NAD’s reputation for producing power amplifiers that are both potent and
musical is upheld in fine manner with the T 765. Boasting a minimum of 80 watts
continuous power per channel, the T 765 can easily fill a room with lifelike sound
levels. NAD’s exclusive PowerDrive
TM
amplifier technology automatically adjusts
the power supply settings of the amplifier to the needs of the loudspeaker. This
ensures remarkably dynamic and distortion-free performance with any type of
loudspeaker, even demanding 4 ohm designs. Many less advanced receivers
prohibit the use of 4 ohm speakers. With PowerDrive
TM
, the performance is always
optimized for the actual operating condition and as a result, the amplifier exhibits
very low distortion and good current drive in the real world. Explosive musical
dynamics are effortlessly handled without added distortion.
Credit for the sound of NAD’s components rests squarely with our unique design
approach and our experienced and very talented design team. Most companies
design their products to a technical specification and a price point. While this
sounds logical enough, it does not address the way the product will actually be
used by the eventual owner. You don’t listen to specifications; you listen to music
and sound. While NAD products exhibit excellent technical measurements, we
have relied on our own ears and listening experience to determine the final design
of our products. Because of our unique design approach, NAD’s sound is simply
more ‘real’ sounding, adding enjoyment and excitement to your favourite films and
music recordings.
Video Performance
Employing the very latest generation of advanced HDMI Receiver and Transmitter
chips in the VM 100 video module ensures compatibility with the broad range
of HD digital video sources and displays available today. NAD engineers have
utilized a powerful FPGA with our own custom software to process the video
signal, enabling the conversion of analogue video to digital video and allowing a
single cable connection to your TV for all sources while maintaining the source’s
native resolution. Interlaced video is converted to progressive scan over HDMI
allowing for complete compatibility with the latest HD TVs. NAD’s clear and simple
