2 NDX Installation and Connection
Your NDX should be installed on an equipment stand intended for the purpose. Ensure it is
well ventilated, and do not stand it directly on top of another item of equipment. It should
be installed in its final location before connecting cables or switching on. The NDX has no
standby mode and is intended to be left switched on.
Connecting the NDX to mains power and to a variety of audio peripherals and sources
is described in the following paragraphs. Diagram 2.1 illustrates the NDX rear panel
connection sockets.
The NDX can be upgraded through the use of an external Naim XPS or 555PS power
supply, Connection of an external power supply is illustrated in Diagram 2.2 and
described in Section 2.4.
