DD AP 1 uses high quality Analog-toDigital conversion to make analog sources compatible with M32’s pure digital circuitry.

The following listening modes, tailored for different types of recording or program material, are provided. ESPAÑOL ITALIANO Coax 1: Current Source. -20.
OPERATION h : Slide to adjust treble, bass or balance level. : Slide to turn ON or OFF Tone Controls. At OFF setting, tone controls (Treble and Bass) are disabled or defeated – Balance option remains available. * The exception may be some electrostatic speakers that have very low impedance at high frequency. The lower the HF impedance, the greater the deviation from flat response. SUB OUTPUT At “ON” Setting, all subwoofer settings are in effect. At “OFF” setting, all subwoofer settings are disabled.
OPERATION USING THE M32 ENGLISH SUB MODE • Set the subwoofer mode to either mono or stereo setting. Mono: Select this setting when using one subwoofer. At mono mode, the left and right channels are summed in the low pass subwoofer output to drive a single subwoofer. Stereo: Select this setting when using two subwoofers, one for the left channel and one for the right channel. FRANÇAIS MAIN FREQUENCY (40Hz to 200Hz and Full) MAIN TRIM (-12.0dB to 0.
OPERATION Sample Rate (48 kHz, 96 kHz, 192 kHz): Select the user’s preference for sample rate of the Analog-to-Digital Converter. Higher sampling rates allow for anti-aliasing filters to take effect further outside the audible frequency range and are generally considered to sound better, especially in the high frequencies. This option is applicable only for LINE 1 and LINE 2. DIGITAL OUTPUT Sample setup of two NAD products on the same Zone M32 and T 787 are both defaulted to IR Channel 0.
OPERATION OTHER FEATURES ENGLISH BluOS MENU FRANÇAIS BluOS “Menu” becomes available if the optional MDC BluOS is installed. BluOS “Menu” can be accessed directly from the touch panel display. Select “Menu” during BluOS playback as above. The following are the BluOS menu options – Info, BluOS Reboot, BluOS Factory Reset and Service Menu.

OPERATION ENGLISH USING THE HTRM 2 REMOTE CONTROL The NAD HTRM 2 is ready to operate the M32 right out of the box, but it is really eight remotes in one. Each of the 8 Device Selector keys at the top of the handset can call up a new “page” of remote control codes to be transmitted by the remaining keys. You may “teach” codes from any infrared-remote controlled component, regardless of brand, to any or all of these.
OPERATION USING THE HTRM 2 REMOTE CONTROL ENGLISH If the Learn LED does not flicker amber you may need to vary the distance between the remotes. If the Learn LED turns red instead of green, the source remote command could not be learned on that attempt. FRANÇAIS Example: Learning “BD Pause” Position the HTRM 2 and your BD player’s remote as described above. 1 On the HTRM 2, simultaneously press-and-hold [BD] and [RES]; the Learn LED turns steady green.
OPERATION CONFIGURING KEY ILLUMINATION Mode DISP + Digit Key (0-9) Set key illumination timeout to number of seconds corresponding to digit key. Zero turns off the key illumination entirely. DISP + OFF Disable light sensor. Key illumination will turn on with any key press. DISP + ON Enable light sensor. To clear a macro, perform the above steps without entering any functions. DISP + ENTER Set the light sensor threshold to the current light level.
OPERATION USING THE HTRM 2 REMOTE CONTROL ENGLISH FRANÇAIS ESPAÑOL LOADING CODE-LIBRARIES SEARCH MODE The HTRM 2 can store a different library of default NAD codes for each of its Device Selector “pages.” If the original default library does not control your NAD CD player, BD player, or other component, follow the procedure below to change the code-library. 1 Begin by ensuring that the component you wish the HTRM 2 to control is plugged in and powered-up (“on,” not merely in standby).
OPERATION ENGLISH USING THE HTRM 2 REMOTE CONTROL BATTERY INSTALLATION FRANÇAIS 1 Use the flat or rounded end of a pointed tool to push open the pin of the battery cover. ESPAÑOL 2 Open the battery hatch. DEUTSCH ITALIANO 3 Insert the supplied four AA batteries. NEDERLANDS 4 Push the battery hatch until it clicks close. РУССКИЙ SVENSKA 5 Restore the battery cover.
