The M 55 DVD/SACD/MP3 Player is a technologically advanced and
highly capable product — yet we have invested great eort in making it
simple and easy to use. We have been careful to ensure that the M 55 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
M 55’s design, such that it can condently promise you both state-of-theart 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 M 55, and get the most from this powerful

GETTING STARTED
UNPACKING AND SETUP
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
Packed with your M 55 you will nd:
• An audio/video cable connector
• A remote control with 2 (two) AA batteries
• This owner’s manual
SAVE THE PACKAGING
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your M 55 arrived.
Should you move or otherwise need to transport your M 55, 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!
CHOOSING A LOCATION
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 23 feet/7
meters, between the M 55’s front panel and your primary listening/viewing
position. This will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications.
The M 55 generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should
trouble adjacent components. It is perfectly possible to stack the M 55 on
top of other components.
QUICK START
In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your new
NAD M 55, we provide the following “Quick Start” instructions to get you
underway.
ABOUT THE M 55
Though the M 55 is among the most technically sophisticated DVD/
SACD/MP3 players, we worked hard to make it one of the most musically
transparent components available as well - this is what we mean by NAD’s
“Music First” design philosophy. Here are just a few examples
• The M 55 includes the High Denition Digital Interface (HDMI) with
HDCP encryption, allowing high denition audio and video signals
to be transferred between source components, processors, and TV
Displays in a pure digital format.
• Using the high quality 12-bit 148.5MHz video DAC, the M 55 ensures
highly accurate playback of delicate, low-level video signals as well as
produce vivid picture that is faithful in every detail. On the other hand,
the audiophile quality 24-bit, 192kHz audio D/A converters make the
M 55 well protected from noise caused by even minute uctuations
in current from the power supply. This high performance audio D/A
converter ensures that all the sound you hear is as clear and noise free
as possible thereby maintaining the delivery of dynamic, smooth and
expansive audio sound.
• The M 55 has exceptional playability. It has support for DVD-Video, DVDR/-RW/+R/+RW, DVD-A, SACD, SVCD with or without PBC (Play Back
Control),VCD, HDCD, Audio CD, CD-R/-RW and including recorded MP3,
copyright-protected WMA and JPEG les.
• Gold-surfaced connectors are employed throughout to ensure
maximum signal integrity.
Please make all the connections to your M 55 with the unit unplugged. It is
also advisable to power-down or unplug all associated components while
making or breaking any signal or AC power connections.
PLAY A CD OR DVD MOVIE
• Using the supplied audio/video cable connector, connect the M 55’s
composite VIDEO OUT jack to your TV/monitor’s corresponding input.
Connect likewise the M 55’s MIXED AUDIO OUT to your TV/monitor’s
applicable AUDIO input.
• Plug the AC mains plug into the AC outlet; the LED indicator on the
front panel will be illuminated amber indicating the M 55 is in standby
mode ready to accept commands from either the front panel POWER
button or [ON] key of the remote control.
• To start playback of the DVD player; press the [OPEN/CLOSE] button on
the remote control or in the front panel.
• Insert the media and press PLAY [ ] button to start playback. You
should hear audio and see an image on the TV/monitor. (If one or the
other fails to appear, check your TV/monitor’s input settings or audio/
video allocation if applicable).
Enjoy the movie or music, but be sure to set aside time to read this manual
thoroughly to set up and congure your M 55 according to your preference.
