1 Power Sources - Connect this unit only to power sources specified in the Operating Instructions, and as
marked on the unit.
2 Polarization - As a safety feature, some units are equipped with polarized AC power plugs which can
only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug into
an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please call a
qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of the
polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3 AC power cord - When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC power plug. Do not pull
the cord itself.
• Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this could result in fire or shock.
• Power cords should be routed to avoid being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular
attention to the cord from the unit to the power socket.
• Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire
or shock.
4 Extension cord - To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power plug with an extension
cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to prevent exposure
of the blades of the plug.
5 When not in use - Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if the unit will not be used for several
months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues to flow to the unit,
even when the power is turned off.

GETTING THE MOST FROM THE NAD T 752
Thank you for choosing NAD.
The T 752 A/V Surround Sound Receiver is a technologically advanced and highly capable product — yet we
have invested great effort in making it simple and easy to use. The T 752 delivers a range of genuinely
useful options for surround sound and stereo listening alike, using powerful digital signal processing and
superbly accurate digital-audio circuitry. However, we have also been careful to ensure that the receiver is
as musically transparent and spatially accurate as possible, incorporating much of what we’ve learned from
a quarter-century’s experience designing audio and home-theater components. As with all our products,
NAD’s “Music First” design philosophy guided the T 752’s design, such that it can confidently promise you
both state-of-the-art surround home-theater and audiophile-quality music listening for years to come.
We encourage you to take a few minutes now to read right through this manual. Investing a little time here
at the outset might save you a good deal of time later, and is by far the best way to ensure that you make
the most of your investment in the NAD T 752, and get the most from this powerful and flexible home-
theater component.
One more thing: We urge you to register your T 752 ownership on the NAD Worldwide Web site:

UNPACKING AND SETUP
Packed with your T 752 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 2 remote control with 4 (four) AAA batteries.
• This owner’s manual.
Save the packaging
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your T 752 arrived. Should you move or otherwise
need to transport your receiver, this is by far the safest container in which to do so. We’ve seen too many
otherwise perfect components damaged in transit for lack of a proper shipping carton, so please: Save that
box!
Choose a location that is well ventilated (with at least several inches to both sides and behind), and that will
provide a clear line of sight, within 25 feet/8 meters, between the receiver’s front panel and your primary
listening/viewing position—this will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications. The T 752
generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should trouble adjacent components. It is perfectly
possible to stack the T 752 atop other components, but the reverse usually should be avoided. Nonetheless,
it is generally preferable that the T 752 stand alone. It is especially important that sufficient ventilation be
provided; if you are contemplating locating the T 752 within a cabinet or other furniture, consult your NAD
audio/video specialist for advice on providing adequate airflow.

ABOUT THE T 752
Though the T 752 is among the most technically sophisticated A/V receivers, we worked hard to make it one
of the most musically transparent home-theater components available as well; this is what we mean by
NAD’s “Music First” design philosophy. Here are just a few examples:
• The T 752 uses NAD’s proprietary Power Drive™ amplifier technology for all channels to preserve
accurate, linear reproduction regardless of the loudspeaker. This uniquely efficient power-supply topol-
ogy provides the real-world benefits of high dynamic power that remains uncompromised by low-
impedance speakers. The result is dynamic, detailed, “un-receiver-like” sound in stereo and multichannel
modes alike. NAD’s exclusive Soft Clipping™ circuitry further enhances sound quality and dynamic
potential.
• High-performance components used throughout the receiver’s analog audio circuits maximize quality from
all sources, including multichannel analog sources such as DVD-Audio and SACD.
• Preamp output (all channels) and main-amp input jacks (for front channels) make potential expansion as
flexible as possible.
• Gold-surfaced connectors are employed throughout to ensure maximum signal integrity.
A key element of the T 752’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 752’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. EARS’ natural ambience yields a subtle but exceptionally effective
surround mode that naturally enhances the spatial presentation in a fashion suitable for serious music
listening. The T 752 also incorporates a second proprietary surround mode, Matrix 7.1. This creates a full
6.1/7.1-channel environment from stereo and surround-encoded recordings, oftentimes with extraordinarily
good results. Dolby ProLogic II Music and DTS Neo:6 Music modes can also create enjoyable experience
from 2-channel sources.
On the digital side, the T 752 combines extraordinarily high-speed DSP processing employing one of the most
advanced high-speed DSP “engines” available, with fully 24-bit, 96 kHz-sampling-capable D/A converters
for all channels. A single, high-precision master clock synchronizes all digital circuits to eliminate the timing
errors (“jitter”) that otherwise compromise sonics. The result is legitimately state-of-the-art surround
decoding from Dolby Digital and DTS sources, and 6.1/7.1-channel reproduction, with genuinely superior
sound quality in all modes.
Despite the effort NAD has invested in the T 752 receiver’s sonic performance, we expended no less in
making it powerfully easy to use. Its design is uniquely simple for so sophisticated a component, and the HTR
2 universal remote control is equally understandable, as are the T 752’s own front-panel and on-screen
displays. Its simple yet powerful system of “presets” permits you to fine-tune your listening setup for
different conditions, sources, or listeners, and to recall these multiple parameters with a single keypress.
The T 752 receiver offers extensive, flexible system-integration options through its configurable DC trigger
outputs and input, and its standard-protocol IR communications links.

ABOUT THE T 752
UPGRADABILITYUPGRADABILITY
UPGRADABILITYUPGRADABILITY
UPGRADABILITY
The T 752 receiver permits flexible system growth via individually accessible pre-out and main-in jacks for all
three front channels, enabling external amplifiers to be used for any of these while still maintaining utility
of the receiver’s on-board power-amplifier channels for additional channels, remote-room links, or any other
suitable purpose. Of course, the T 752’s Surround Back channel outputs let a system grow from 5.1 to 6.1
or 7./1 channels, simply by adding a 1- or 2-channel external amplifier. See “Rear Panel (Audio Pre-Out),”
below.
Packed with your T 752 is the NAD HTR 2 remote control, a full-system remote especially designed to be easy
to use and easy to understand. Be sure to read the section “Using the HTR 2 Remote Control,” below, to
familiarize yourself with the remote’s layout and operations before proceeding to setup your receiver.
Chances are, you will want to use your HTR 2 as your primary way to command your entire A-V system. The
HTR 2 can be employed to operate additional NAD or other-brand components such as a DVD/CD player,
television, satellite/HDTV tuner, VCR, or virtually anything else that operates via standard infrared remote
control.

In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your new NAD T 752 receiver, we provide
the following “Quickstart” instructions to get you underway. The steps below connect your DVD player to the
T 752’s DVD input; be sure to read “Input Setup”, below.
• Connect the T 752’s composite video or S-Video MONITOR OUT jack to your TV/monitor’s corresponding
input.
• Connect your DVD player’s composite video or S-Video output to the T 752’s corresponding DVD input.
• Connect the DVD player’s optical digital output to the T 752’s optical DIGITAL IN 1 input.
• Connect your left and right front speakers to the T 752’s FRONT L and R outputs, being sure to connect
red to red (“+”) and black to black (“-”), with care to avoid stray wires or strands crossing between
terminals. (Connect center and surround speakers as well, if you like). If your system includes a powered
subwoofer, connect the T 752’s AUDIO PRE-OUT SW1 jack to its line input.
• Press in the main power switch (green pushbutton) on the T 752’s front panel (this puts the T 752 into
STANDBY mode and illuminates an amber LED to indicate it is ready to receive remote commands), then
use the HTR 2’s [ON] key to power up the receiver. Be sure the TV/monitor is powered up, with the correct
input selected.
• Start playback of the DVD player. Press the HTR 2 remote’s [Amp] Device Selector key, and then its (red)
DVD/numeric 1 key to select the DVD input. You should hear multichannel or stereo sound, and see an
image on the TV/monitor. (If one or the other fails to appear, you may need to use the receiver’s on-screen
menu system to check assignment of audio, video, and digital inputs; see “Configuring the T 752”,
below.)
Enjoy the movie or music, but be sure to set aside time to read this manual thoroughly, and to set up,
calibrate, and configure your T 752 carefully and completely.

1 POWER: Press in to switch the receiver to Standby; the amber indicator (2) above the power button will light, but the main VFL display remains dark,
and very little power is consumed. Pressing any other front-panel key, or the HTR 2 remote’s [ON] button, will switch the receiver on, making it
operational, changing the amber Standby indicator to green and illuminating the VFL display. Pressing any front panel button (other than the [POWER]
button) will also switch the receiver on. Press the remote’s [OFF] button to return to Standby. Pressing POWER again turns the unit OFF completely,
recommended if you do not plan to use your receiver for an extended period of time. It is usual (and perfectly acceptable) to leave the T 752 in
Standby mode in between normal viewing and listening sessions.
Note that when you do choose to switch off from Standby using the front panel Power button, the T 752’s memory back-up system will store channel
level, tuner preset, and other settings for several weeks while the unit is switched off, or even unplugged from AC power altogether.
2 STANDBY: Illuminates amber when the T 752 is in Standby mode; green when it is powered on; and flashes momentarily to indicate infrared
commands received from the HTR 2 remote. Protection Mode is indicated by a red illumination, and indicates that there is a problem with your set-
up or the unit itself. When the fault is removed, normal operation can be resumed (this may require turning the unit off and on again). This indicator
will be steadily dark only when POWER is switched off (or the receiver is unplugged from the AC supply).
3 AM/FM: Press to toggle between the tuner’s AM and FM bands.
4 DISPLAY: Press to display the channel mode of the currently selected source (other than the internal AM/FM tuner), in the format “front/rear/LFE.”
For example, a Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1-channel source will display 3/2.1. Note that the display shows signal channels, not speakers; for example,
a 2-channel analog or digital source (whether stereo or surround-encoded) will show 2/0.0, even though the receiver’s <Speaker Settings> may
indeed be set up to use the subwoofer with all sources, and the current Listening Mode may employ center and surround speakers.
When the AM/FM tuner is the selected input, sequentially pressing DISPLAY shows the currently tuned station’s RDS data, toggling between the
current station’s Radio Text and Station Name displays (see Listening to Radio, below).
5 MEMORY: Use to store tuned stations to the T 752’s 40 preset-memory locations. (See “Listening to Radio,” below.)
6 FM MUTE/MODE: In the normal Mute position, only the stations with a strong signal can be listened to, and the noise between stations is muted.
Pressing the [FM Mute/Mode] button allows distant (and potentially noisy) stations to be received. (See “Listening to Radio,” below.)
7 PRESET <<

up or down; the T 752’s tuner will stop at the next sufficiently strong signal it encounters. Note that this function, too, “wraps,” and will continue
searching up or down from one end of the AM or FM band to the other.
Note that: SEARCH <<

>moves by 10 kHz or 9 kHz steps. To change the step amount, hold in the FM MUTE/MODE and AM/FM keys simultaneously.
9 VFL DISPLAY: The Vacuum Fluorescent Display provides visual information on all of the T 752’sa important modes, settings, and functions.
10 VOLUME (SETUP): Turn clockwise to increase the master-volume setting; counterclockwise to lower it. The VFL and on-screen displays show the
setting, displayed in decibels between –60 and +18.
The VOLUME(SETUP) knob is also used to increment/decrement individual channel levels and other adjustable parameters.
