introduction • E.A.R.S. AND DIGITAL SURROUND A key element of the T 765’s unique musical aptitude is NAD’s proprietary Enhanced Ambience Recovery System (EARS). In sharp contrast to many “ambience-synthesis” music-surround modes, EARS exploits the T 765’s substantial DSP power to route the ambient content that is “encrypted” in virtually all natural-acoustic recordings to the appropriate main, center and surround speakers, without resorting to artificially generated reflections or regeneration.
introduction GETTING STARTED ENGLISH WHAT’S IN THE BOX FRANÇAIS Packed with your T 765 A/V Receiver you will find • An AM loop antenna • A FM ribbon-wire antenna with balun • A removable AC cable (if you wish, any IEC-standard AC cable of suitable wattage may be substituted). • The HTR 3 remote control with 4 (four) AAA batteries. • The ZR 4 zone remote control with 3V CR2025 battery. • This owner’s manual.
