TheT 175 AW Tuner Preamplifier is a technologically advanced and highly capable product — yet we have invested great effort in making it simple and easy to use. The T 175 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 T 175 is as musically transparent faithful to every video detal and spatially accurate as possible, incorporating much of what eve leamed from a quarter-century's experience designing audio, video and home-theater components. As with all our products, NADS “Music First” design philosophy quided the T 175 design, such that it can confidentiy promise you both state-of-the-art surround home-theater and audiophile-quality music listening for years to come.
REFERENCE TROUBLESHOOTING .........444444444.4.44..................... 49 SPECIFICATIONS ...................4....ssscsssssssssssssssss 50 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 T 175, and get the most from this powerful and flexible home-theater component One more thing: We urge you to register your T 175 ownership on the NAD Worldwide Web site: http://NADelectronics.com/warranty For warranty information contact your local distributor.
INTRODUCTION Though the T 175 is among the most technically sophisticated AN Tuner Preamplifier, we worked hard to make it one ofthe most musically transparent home-theater components available as well: this is what we mean by NADS "Music First” design philosophy. Here are just few examples: + High-performance components used throughout the AW Tuner Preamplifer$ analog audio circuits maximize quality from all sources, including multi-channel analog sources such as DVD-Audio and SACD. + Audio pre-out jacks make potential expansion as flexible as possible. + Zone pre-amp and video feed with assignable 12 V DC trigger control. + An RS-232 port for advanced zone control and software update through a Windows® compatible PC + Gold-surfaced connectors are employed throughout to ensure maximum signal integrity. E.A.R.S. AND DIGITAL SURROUND Akey element oftheT 1755 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 1755 substantial DSP power to route the ambient content that is‘encrypted"in virtually al natural-acoustic recordings to the appropriate main, center and surround speakers, without resorting to artificilly generated reflections or regeneration. EARS natural ambience yield a subtle but exceptionally effective surround mode that naturally enhances the spatial presentation in à fashion suitable for serious music listening Dolby Pro Logic 1x Music and DTS Neo: 6 Music modes can also create enjoyable experience from 2-channel sources. On the digital side, the T 175 combines extraordinarily high-speed DSP processing employing one ofthe most advanced high-speed DSP ‘engines" available, with fully 24-bit, 192 KHz-sampling-capable D/A converters for all channels À 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 theT 175 AW Tuner Preamplifiers sonic performance, we expended no less in making it powerfully easy to use. ts design is uniquely simple for so sophisticated a component, and the HTRC 1 universal remote control is equally understandable, as are the T 1755 own front-panel and on-screen displays. ts 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 key press. INTEGRATION The T 175 offers extensive, flexible systemrintegration options through its configurable DC trigger outputs and input, and its standard-protocol IR communications links. The DC trigger outputs can be assigned to either Local and/or Zone locations. ABOUT THET 175 ZONE TheT 175 is equipped with three configurable Zones that make full use of video and pre-amp level audio outputs. The ZR 4 remote control wil allow you complete access to Zone 2 applications including access to volume On/Off and al sources inputs. Zone 3 and Zone 4 could be configured and managed at the appropriate Zone OSD menu using the front panel navigations keys as well as the corresponding keys on the HTRC 1 remote control RS 232 Flexible system configuration is possible with the RS-232 interface and NAD$ proprietary Windows® compatible software.We are also certified partners with AMX and Crestron and fully support these external devices. This interface allows complete remote control of the T 175 from any remote location via the PC. Complete remote control functionality is available to the user by interface software. See your NAD audio specialist for further information. UPGRADABILITY TheT 175 permits flexible system growth via individually accessible pre-out and main-in jacks for all channels. We have made the more likely scenario of software upgrades easy to accomplish via the high speed RS-232 port on the rear panel of the T 175. Owners who register their T 175 on our international web site wwmwNADelectronics.com will be advised of updates. Some of these may be free of charge, and some may require royalty payments depending on the type of upgrade. The advanced user will be able to perform these upgrades by downloading files from our web site, via e-mail and instaling them by connecting the T 175 to a PC. Alternatively the dealer from whom you purchased your 175 should be able to assist in performing these upgrades

USING THET 175 - MAIN MENU
LISTENING MODE Listening Mode Mode : DIT he T 175 offers distinct listening modes, tallored for different types of
recording or program material. With a two-channel (Stereo) source, following listening modes can be selected IMPORTANT NOTICE The T 175 is an AV Surround Sound Preamplifier and therefore has no speakers. The mention of"Speaker(s)" in this manual refers to the speakers of your external amplifier as interfaced with the T 175. STEREO All output is directed to the front left/right channels. Low frequencies are directed to the subwoofer if one is present in the Speaker settings. Select Stereo'when you wish to listen to a stereo (or monaural) production, such as music CD or FM broadcast, without surround enhancement. Stereo recordings whether in PCM/digital or analog form and whether surround- encoded or not encoded, are reproduced as recorded. Multi-channel digital recordings (Dolby Digital and DTS) are reproduced in‘tereo Downmix" mode via the front left/right channels only as Lt/t (left/right-total) signals. DIRECT he analog or digital sources are automatically played in their native formats. AÏ the sources audio channels are reproduced directly. This mode recreates the original sound most faithfully thereby producing outstandingly high quality audio. PRO LOGIC io-channel recordings, whether stereo or surround-encoded, are reproduced with Dolby Pro Logic surround processing, yielding output to front left/right, center and discrete left/right surround channels (assuming these are present in the current'Speaker Configuration). The surround channel is monophonie, but it is reproduced in both surround speakers.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx Dolby Pro Logic Iix processes both stereo and 5.1 signals into a 6.1 or 7.1 channel output. At Dolby Pro Logic I, you can choose PLIIx Movie or PLIx Music modes to tailor your listening experience to the source material Dolby Pro Logic Iix surround processing yields more stable imaging and full bandwidth sound to the rear channels in Movie mode offering sound that is more similar to Dolby Digital decoding. For two channel signals, Pro Logic 1x Music mode also features three additional user controls - Dimension, Center Width, and Panorama See also section about'Adjusting Listening Modes’below. The following chart shows the channels available assuming they are enabled in the'Speaker Configuration menu: Active Decoded Output Channels Listening Mode Two-Channel Sources 6.1 Speaker System 7.1 Speaker System Front (ef righe), Front [left & right), Center, Surround (left & right), Back Surround, Subwoofer Center, Surround (left & Fight) and Back Surround {left and right) and subwoofer Dolby Pro Logic x Music Dolby Pro Logic x Movie DTS NEO:6 To-channel recordings, whether stereo or surround-encoded, are reproduced with Neo: 6 surround with output ta front left/right, center and discrete left/right surround channels plus subwoofer (assuming these are n the current'Speaker Configuration). The T 175 provides two DTS Neo 6 variations - NEO: Cinema and NEO:6 Music. See also section about ‘Adjusting Listening Modes’ below. EARS Two-channel recordings, whether stereo or suround-encoded, are reproduced with proprietary NAD surround processing with signals output to the front left/ght, center and discrete left/right surround channels, plus subwoofer (assuming these are present in the current'Speaker Configuration). EARS does not employ the surround back speakers (if any). EARS extracts the natural ambience present in nearly all well-produced stereo recordings. it does not synthesize any ambience or other sonic elements and thus remains truer to the sound ofthe original musical performance than most other music-surround options. Select EARS for listening to stereo music recordings and broadcasts. EARS produces a subtle but highly natural and believable ambience from early all'natural-acoustic' stereo recordings. Typicall, these include classical jazz, and folk genres as well as numerous examples from others. I virtues include realistic stable “front-stage' sonic imaging and spacious but unexaggerated ambient “virtual acoustics’"that remain faithful to the original recording. ENHANCED STEREO All recordings are reproduced in stereo via the maximum speaker complement configured in the current'Speaker Configuration! Enhanced stereo can be useful for maximum volume from all channels or for multi- speaker background music (cocktail party) listening. For this mode, Front Center, Surround and Back speakers can be turned ON/OFF as desired. ANALOG BYPASS All analog signals remain in the analog domain without analog-to-digital conversions, At Analog Bypass, the DSP circuitry is bypassed but full tone control functions remain. Bass management'or Speaker settings are also not in effect as these are DSP functions.

Audyssey Auto Calibration Please connect the measurement microphone to the T175 Position the microphone in the main listening position at ear height Start Speaker Detec It has been shown that many, if not most, surround sound systems are not accurately setup and calibrated, To be done proper calibration requires special knowledge and instrumentation that the average person probably doesnit OSSESS. The Audyssey Auto Setup and Calibration featured in T 175 uses a microphone, along with sophisticated digital electronics built into your T 175, to automatically setup and calibrate the T 175 to the exact speakers and speaker placement of your own unique Home Theatre. Audyssey Auto Calibration Front Left center Front Right Surround Right : Back Right Back Left Surround Left Subyoofer roceed to Next S' The following measurements are performed: + Detection : Speaker configuration is detected including number of surround speakers and whether a subwoofer and center channel is connected 175 crossover is set based on each channels signal handling capability and the subwoofer crossover is automatically set + Level: SPL of each speakeris matched within 1dB at the microphone position. + Distance : is accurately set to within 1 foot (30 centimeters) of the microphone for each speaker position: + Polarity:the setup program will detect and notif the user ifany speakers are connected improperly.

AUDYSSEY MultEQ XT ROOM ACOUSTICS CORRECTION Sound reflecting from room boundaries can disturb the spatial ilusion of surround sound, and can also distort the tonal balance ofthe system. Professional Acoustical Engineers often add wall treatments and even move wall and relocate speakers to improve system performance, but for the average Home Theatre, this is elther too expensive or just not a practical solution. Audyssey MultEQ XT, using multiple measurements from the actual listening positions, and processing this information using very sophisticated digital signal processing, is able to "precondition’ the signal to effectively make the walls disappear. This creates a family size‘ sweet spot wher sound and spatial cues are very accurately reproduced! MuitEQ XT is designed to tame room acoustics without changing the sonic character of your loudspeakers. While it will make the most of whatever loudspeakers you have, it will not make poor speakers sound like good ones! Connect the Audyssey microphone jack into the front panels MP/MIC input and'the Audyssey Auto Calibration wizard will guide you through a simple step-by-step configuration. Once setup and calibrated, the next greatest improvement in performance is obtained by eliminating the acoustic interference caused by room boundaries interacting with your speakers.
MEASUREMENT IS THE FIRST STEP
The sound at each listening position (up to 8 positions) is calibrated using the same microphone used during the setup phase. A special test tone is sent to each speaker and the data is memorized by theT 175. The duration of calibration may take some time depending on the number of speakers as well as the number of measuring points. After all positions are measured, the DSP calculates the ideal system response for your particular room and speaker setup Ifsome inconsistencies or discrepancies are detected during the Audyssey calibration, the process maybe interrupted or the problem is shown in the particular setup window. À notice screen is correspondingly displayed. After fellowing and undertaking the displayed instructions, re-start the Audyssey calibration again. When the measurements are finalized, Audyssey calculates the ideal system response for your particular room and speaker setup NOTE The test tone emitted during measurement is loud. This maybe bothersome for you and may affect your other household members as well and even your neighbor.
NEXT A TARGET CURVE MUST BE CHOSEN Because loudspeaker designers assume that their products will be used in wpical domestic rooms, they are voiced’to work in this environment. It is assumed that the room will add some bass renforcement and will absorb some treble energy. Thus ifwe effectively remove the walls with room correction, and set the speakers for flat response you may find this sounds too bright in the treble and too weak in the bass region NAD engineers have done extensive research in this area of room acoustics, and along with Audyssey engineers developed what we believe is the ideal ‘in room response curve. We include this NAD EQ, along with an Audyssey developed EQ as the two best choices.

INTRODUCTION The HTRC 1 is like having eight virtual remote controls in one. The eight DEVICE SELECTOR keys can be used to switch between the different virtual remote controls or devices. When the HTRC 1 isidle, the name ofthe currently selected device will be shown on the frstline ofthe LCD display. Whenever a function key is pressed, the name of that function will be shoun on the second line ofthe LCD display. The second line will be cleared again shortly after releasing the function key. HIGHLIGHTS + Controls up to 8 Devices. + 2ine LCD display indicates selected Device (DVD) and sent Command (‘PLAY' for example) + Preprogrammed with all NAD remote commands including Zone 2 + Learning function - learns up to 360 commands from other remates. + Macro operations - program up to 52 Macros with as many as 64 commandé each to automate commonly used command sequences. + Punch Though Operations permit easy access to commonly used functions without reselecting à device. + Fullilumination with light sensor and ajustable time out for easy operation in low light conditions. + Can generate IR signals with a carrier frequency up to 500 kHz (B80° compatible). + Mini USB PC Interface allows programming from a Personal Computer. The HTRC 1 is already preprogrammed with a full complement of NAD commands on its AMP DEVICE SELECTOR page, and with library commands to operate most NAD DVD, CD and TUNER components on the corresponding DEVICE SELECTOR keys. These default commands are permanent: Even if you teach the HTRC 1 new commands to take their place, the underiing library commandé remain in place and can easily be recalled should you add an NAD component to your system later.
GETTING FAMILIAR WITH THE HTRC 1
The HTRC 1 is divided into three main sections. The LCD display section at the top ofthe handset, the DEVICE SELECTOR, and the remaining 44 Control keys. Eight DEVICE SELECTOR keys at the top; AMP TV, CUSTOM, CD, DVD, BD, TUNER, and CABLE/SAT determine which component the remaining 44 control keys will operate. À DEVICE SELECTOR key determines what component the HTRC 1 will command with factory defaults, it does not perform any function on the T 175. The DEVICE SELECTOR keys are organized into three vertical rows of 3 buttons each; the row on the left are all Audio devices, the row in the center are all Video devices. Both the DEVICE SELECTOR and function keys can“leamn' control codes from virtually any infrared remote controller allowing you to teach the codes of your equipment, regardless of brand, to the HTRC 1. All ofthe function keys on the AMP DEVICE SELECTOR are preprogrammed to control NAD amplifiers, preamplifiers, and receivers. (The HTRC 1 can also command many other NAD components, from its DVD, BD, CD, TUNER and TV pages) Since HTRC 1 Control keys can perform different functions, depending on the selected DEVICE SELECTOR key, the HTRC 1 uses color coding to indicate the function of the function keys when different device keys are chosen. Thus, the colour of the DEVICE SELECTOR key-labeling corresponds to the labeling of the function keys (similar to a calculator) HTRC 1
For example, the grey AMP DEVICE SELECTOR key label corresponds to the grey input-select labeling adjacent to the numeric keys: When the HTRC 15 AMP DEVICE SELECTOR page is active, these keys select the amplifier, preamplifier or receiver inputs, Similarly, the red DVD DEVICE SELECTOR key label corresponds to several red labels, the green TV DEVICE SELECTOR key to green labels, and so on.
Simply pressing a DEVICE SELECTOR key wil change the active device on the HTRC 1. Atthis time, no IR commands will be transmitted. The name of the selected device will be show on the first line of the LCD display. NOTE Any IR command can be associated with a DEVICE SELECTOR key during “Copy” and ‘Learn modes. Once the associated function is assigned to the DEVICE SELECTOR key, pressing and holding the DEVICE SELECTOR key for more than two seconds will send the associated command in addition to the HTRC 1 switching its active device. MACRO KEYS A macro can be associated with every key on the HTRC 1 except forthe MACRO button itself À total of 52 macros can be stored. To execute à macro: + Press the MACRO key. The first line of the LCD display will show*MACRO" Within five seconds, press the key the macro is associated with + While the macro is executing a small M"will be shown in the top right ofthe LCD display. Refer also to the*MACRO"item below of the"HTRC 1 SETUP MENU"section for information on how to setup macros. FUNCTION KEYS There are 44 dedicated function keys on the HTRC 1. When you press a function key, the name of the function will be shown on the second line of the LCD display while the command is being transmitted
In the default configuration ofthe HTRC 1, the AW PSET key acts as a shift function when the AMP device is selected. Pressing the AA PSET key once will cause “Preset”to be displayed on the first line of the LCD display. Iwithin five seconds you then press a digit (0-9), the function for the corresponding A Preset will be transmitted. NOTE The HTRC 1 is a universal-type remote control, some NAD models may not have more than 5 AV presets.
