User manual NAD C372

[. . . ] Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. the exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product. Do not place this unit on an unstable cart, stand or tripod, bracket or table. [. . . ] However, it is recommended that you switch the unit totally off if it is not going to be used for more than a couple of days. Switch off completely by pressing the POWER button on the front panel (No. POWER / STAND-BY / PROTECTION INDICATOR Upon switching the power on, the LED will light up amber in standby state. While one of the input select buttons is pressed, the LED will turn red for a moment, then turn green for ON state. In cases of serious abuse of the amplifier, such as overheating, excessively low loudspeaker impedance, short circuit etc. The amplifier will engage its Protection circuitry, indicated by the LED turning from green to red, and the sound being muted. In such a case, turn the amplifier off, wait for it to cool down and/or check the speaker connections, making sure the overall loudspeaker impedance doesn't go below 4 ohms. Once the cause for the protection circuitry to engage has been removed, press Power again to resume normal operation. HEADPHONE SOCKET A 1/4" stereo jack socket is supplied for headphone listening and will work with conventional headphones of any impedance. Use a suitable adapter to connect headphones with other types of sockets, such as 3. NOTE: Make certain that the volume control is turned to minimum (fully counter-clockwise) before connecting or disconnecting headphones. If Speakers A and B are both engaged (both indicators over the Speakers A and B buttons are lit), the amplifier's output power is fed to both sets of speakers in parallel. If speakers A and B are disengaged, both sets of speakers are silenced. NOTES: Always turn the volume down when engaging or disengaging either Speaker A or Speaker B. When using Speakers A and B at the same time, make sure that the total impedance of the speakers connected is more than 8 ohms. SOFT CLIPPINGTM INDICATOR The green SOFT CLIPPINGTM indicator shows that the Soft ClippingTM mode is engaged. BASS & TREBLE CONTROLS The NAD C 372 is fitted with BASS and TREBLE tone controls to adjust the tonal balance of your system. The 12 o'clock position is 'flat' with no boost or cut and a detent indicates this position. The Tone controls do not affect recordings made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal going to the Pre-amp outputs (Pre-Out 1 & 2). If the Tone Controls are not normally used and left in the 12 o'clock position, then it is advisable to switch out the Tone Control section altogether by using this switch. The 12 o'clock position provides equal level to the left and right channels. The BALANCE control does not affect recordings made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal going to the Pre-amp outputs (Pre-Out 1 & 2). [. . . ] Anslut ett par signalkablar till höger och vänster "Audio Input" kontakt på effektförstärkaren eller processorn till "PRE OUT" kontakterna. oBSERVERA att nivån på "Pre Out" signalen följer inställningen på volymreglaget och tonkontrollerna. Tänk på att se till att alla apparater är avslagna innan några anslutningar görs till PRE OUT 1 & 2 och MAIN IN. Anslut ett par signalkablar till höger och vänster "Audio output" kontakt på effektförstärkaren eller processorn till "PRE OUT" kontakterna. [. . . ]
