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 T 758’s front panel and your
primary listening/viewing position - this will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications.
The T 758 generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should trouble adjacent components.
It is especially important that sucient ventilation be provided.
DEFAULT SOURCE SETTINGS
The following table lists the default SOURCE settings. Note that the Audio input settings show both
digital and analog audio input. Digital input will always take precedence over analog audio input even
if both are present.

AVR 4 REMOTE CONTROL
ALTERNATE IR CHANNEL
The T 758 has the capability to operate via Alternate IR channel. This is
practically useful if you have two NAD products that can be operated by
similar remote control commands. With alternate IR Channel, two dierent
NAD products can be controlled independently in the same zone by
setting each one to a dierent IR channel.
IR CHANNEL ASSIGNMENT
The T 758 and the AVR 4 remote control must be set to the same channel.
To change the Main Zone IR Channel on the T 758
• Press and hold a SOURCE and then toggle STANDBY button to select
desired IR Channel – the VFD will show “IR Channel 1” or “IR Channel 0”.
The default IR Channel is “IR Channel 0”.
To change the IR Channel on the AVR 4 remote control
• Include a channel number before the library code. For AVR 4, library
code “10” is the default library table for “AMP” device. To select this “AMP”
library table for “IR Channel 0”, retain the library code “10” (or “010”).
• If you want to load the “AMP” library table on “IR Channel 1”, prex the
library code with “1” to indicate association with “IR Channel 1”. Load
then the “AMP” library table using the code “110”. Repeat the same for
MP (130).
MASTER QUALITY AUTHENTICATED
Master Quality Authenticated
(MQA) is a revolutionary end-to-end
technology built into T 758 that
captures and delivers master quality
audio. T 758 includes a powerful decoder and audio renderer for the MQA
system. This ensures that MQA-encoded audio les sound exactly like the
source.
In the BluOS app, the MQA indicator displays green or blue to indicate that
the unit is decoding and playing an MQA le. It displays green to indicate
decoding and playback of a MQA le and denotes provenance to ensure
that the sound is identical to that of the source material. It displays blue to
indicate playback of MQA Studio le that has either been approved in the
studio by the artist/ producer or has been veried by the copyright owner.
SAMPLE SETUP OF TWO NAD PRODUCTS ON THE SAME ZONE
NAD T 758 and NAD C368 are both defaulted to IR Channel 0. If [OFF]
button is pressed on the AVR 4 remote control (or SR 9 remote control for
the C368), both products will go to standby mode. Press [ON] and both
products will power up from standby mode.
To prevent both products from simultaneously going in and out of standby
mode along with other common commands, set each one to a dierent IR
channel. In this setup, we will keep C368 and SR 9 remote control defaulted
to “IR Channel 0”. As for T 758, we will assign it to “IR Channel 1”; the same
applies to AVR 4.
Set T 758 and AVR 4 to “IR Channel 1” via the following procedure.
T 758
• Press and hold a SOURCE and then toggle STANDBY button to
select “IR Channel 1”.
AVR 4
• Press and hold [AMP] in the DEVICE SELECTOR section of the AVR 4.
• While holding down the device button [AMP], press “1”, “1” and “0”
using AVR 4’s numeric buttons.
• Press [ENTER] while still holding down the device button [AMP]. The
AMP device selector will ash once to indicate that the library input
is successful.
With both T 758 and AVR 4 set to “IR Channel 1”, the C368 can now be
remotely controlled independent of the T 758.

“AUDIO PRE-OUT/ZONE 2/HEIGHT 1/HEIGHT 2” in the “IDENTIFICATION
OF CONTROLS – REAR PANEL” section) also sends zone selected audio
source to the corresponding audio input of a separately located
additional amplier or receiver (not supplied) that can power its
matching set of speakers. Zone 2 audio output for this secondary Zone
2 can be increased or decreased using the VOL (Volume) keys of the
supplied ZR 7 zone remote control.
Depending on the settings made at the separate “Zone Setup” menu
under the “Setup Menu” section discussion, Zone 2 can be congured and
managed via this “Zone Controls” window.
Set “Power” to “On” to activate Zone 2. When activated, the Source input
for Zone 2 can be allocated by selecting through the following inputs – All
enabled Sources, Front Input, Media Player and Local.
As long as the associated Source input is active, it will continuously be
available at ZONE 2 output port in the rear panel regardless of the Main
Zone settings. For example, while the T 758 is at Source 1 mode, you can
set the Zone 2 Controls’ “Source” item to “Source 3”; the active Source 3’s
audio output will be directed to ZONE 2 output port in the rear panel even
though the T 758 is at Source 1 mode.
You can then feed the ZONE 2 jacks to another amplier or receiver
that maybe located in another area of your home or building. With your
separate amplier or receiver selecting the fed signal and with speakers
connected, you can then enjoy the zone selected source’s audio signal.
Select “Local” as your selected Zone 2 Source input if you wish to enjoy the
same source as the main Zone and allow simultaneous listening, but with
full separate volume levels.
If a Zone 2 is set to “O”, it is deactivated or powered o.
ZONE 2 AT AUDIO PREOUT SURROUND BACK
BACK L and BACK R channels of AUDIO PRE-OUT can be assigned as
Zone2OUT. This is applicable only if “Zone 2” is the selected setting of “Back
Amplier” in the “Amplier Setup” menu.
• For the applicable Zone 2 function, Zone 2 audio level can only be adjusted
using the Volume keys of ZR 7 remote control only if “Back Amplier” in the
“Amplier Setup” menu is set to “Zone 2”. Setting “Back Amplier” to “Main
Front” or “Main Back” will not allow Zone 2 audio level adjustment.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
• Only analog audio connected through a Source’s analog audio input
port can be associated as audio source for Zone 2.
• Digital audio sources connected via HDMI, digital optical and digital coaxial
input ports cannot be downmixed and used as Zone 2 audio source.
• BluOS audio is also not applicable as a Zone 2 audio source.
• Ensure that the associated Source’s Digital Audio setting is set to “O ” or
no actual digital source is connected.
VOLUME
“Volume” refers to the adjustable secondary Zone 2 Volume level that can
be increased or decreased depending upon its settings. This is applicable
only if the Zone 2 Volume setting in the separate “Zone Setup” menu under

CONTROL SETUP
ENGLISH
The T 758 supports HDMI Control (CEC) and Audio Return Channel (ARC)
functions. Both functions are possible if external devices that also support
both features are interconnected with the T 758 via HDMI connection.
AUTO STANDBY
The T 758 can be setup to automatically go to standby mode if there is no
user interface interaction within 30 minutes.
On: T 758 will go to standby mode automatically in the absence of any
user interface interaction within 30 minutes.
O: T 758 remains active even though no user interface interaction is
detected.
CEC/LAN/BluOS IN STANDBY
Indicates the status of CEC, LAN and BluOS activity while the unit is in
standby mode.
On
• Enable CEC feature. Audio and video will continuously stream from
a CEC-enabled HDMI source to a CEC-enabled TV (with both devices
connected via T 758).
• LAN and BluOS connections continue to be active.
O
• T 758 will not pass through any CEC message. Audio and video
will not be streamed from a CEC-enabled HDMI source to a CECenabled TV (with both devices connected via T 758).
• LAN and BluOS connections are idle or inactive.
HDMI CONTROL CEC
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is a set of commands that utilizes
HDMI’s two- way communication to allow for single remote control of any
CEC-enabled devices connected with HDMI. A CEC command will trigger
the necessary commands over HDMI for an entire system to auto-congure
itself to respond to the command.
17
Page 18
ENGLISH
OPERATION
USING THE T 758 SETUP MENU
When devices that support HDMI Control (CEC) are connected, the
following modes of operation can be executed via the T 758 or the external
device using any of the device’s remote control.
O: Applies to all CEC options below. At “O ” setting, particular CEC feature
is defeated.
Power O: At “On” setting, the T 758 will automatically go to
standby mode if it receives a CEC standby command. On the other
hand, if the T 758 receives a CEC power up command, the T 758 will
correspondingly switch ON from standby mode.
Source Switch: At “On” setting, the T 758 will automatically switch
sources if another CEC device requests a Source change.
For example, if PLAY is pressed on a BD Player with CEC, the T 758
and TV with CEC will automatically switch to their respective input
connections – the T 758 switching to the HDMI input where the BD
Player is connected while the TV will switch to its input where the
T 758’s HDMI OUT is connected. This completes the auto-conguration
– the BD Player is automatically played back using the T 758 and TV.
Audio System: At “On” setting, the T 758 will broadcast a CEC message
indicating it is an active audio system. A CEC compatible TV will usually
mute its audio output when this happens. When this option is enabled,
the T 758 will also respond to CEC volume and mute commands. For
example, a CEC TV may forward the volume commands from its remote
to the T 758.
ARC Mode: Audio Return Channel (ARC) enables an ARC-enabled TV
to send audio data “upstream” to T 758.
This option has three choices: O, Auto or Source Setup.
Auto: When set to Auto, the T 758 will automatically attempt an
ARC audio connection to the TV whenever the TV announces over
CEC that it has become the active source. If an ARC connection can
be established, the T 758 will output the ARC audio signal no matter
what source is selected on the T 758 and will show “HDMI ARC” on
the VFD. The Auto option tends to work best when all your devices
support CEC and the Source Switch option is set to On.
Source Setup: When set to Source Setup, you can select “ARC” for
the digital audio input in the source setup screen. When you select
a source on the T 758 which is set for ARC, the T 758 will attempt
to initiate an ARC connection with the TV. When using this option,
you would probably also want to make sure Source Switch is o
otherwise other CEC devices may keep changing the T 758 source
when you want it to remain on the ARC source.
SOURCE SETUP
The Source Setup menu makes it possible to set, allocate or change the
Sources settings.
The T 758 Sources are all congurable. Each Source can be congured with
respect to the following settings.
ENABLED
One can enable/disable a Source via this option. This is particularly useful
if only few Sources are used and one directly selects the Source from the
front panel, bypassing unused sources.
Select “Yes” to enable the particular Source or “No” to disable the Source.
NAME
A new Name maybe assigned to a Source label. For example, if your BD player
is attached to “Source 1”, it is possible to rename “Source 1” to “BD Player”.
In order to rename the Source label, scroll to the “Name” parameter. Press
[ S ] to go to the rst character. Then, press [ D/F ] to pick through the
alphanumeric selections.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• “Audio System” must be set to “On” for “ARC mode” to manifest as an
option.
• “CEC/LAN/BluOS in Standby” must be set to “On” for audio and video
to continuously stream from a CEC-enabled HDMI source to a CECenabled TV (with both devices connected via T 758).
18
Press [ S ] to move to the next character and at the same time save the
changes done on the current character. The name can be as long as twelve
characters.
The new Name will be shown in the VFD as well as on the OSD.

OPERATION
USING THE T 758 SETUP MENU
ANALOG AUDIO
The T 758 has six analog audio inputs including 7.1 input. These analog
inputs - Stereo 1, Stereo 2, Stereo 3, Stereo Front, Media Player (Front) and
External 7.1 can be variably assigned to each Source.
“External 7.1” selects audio input signal from “7.1 CH INPUT”. If “O ’ is
selected, no incoming analog audio signal is selected by the particular
Source.
NOTE
An incoming digital signal present at the assigned digital input will always
take precedence over the assigned analog audio input, even if both are
present. To maintain the analog audio input for the particular Source, select
“O” at the “Digital Audio” setting of the same “Source” menu.
ANALOG GAIN
Gain adjustment allows all sources to play back at the same volume level so
you don’t need to adjust the volume every time a new source is selected. It
is generally preferable to reduce the level of the loudest source rather than
making louder the softer sources.
Scroll to “Analog Gain”, press [ S ] and then [ D/F ] to step through the
desired level from -12dB to 12dB.
DIGITAL AUDIO
To take advantage of the T 758’s high performance surround and digital
audio circuitry, it is advisable that its Digital Audio inputs are selected.
There are various types of Digital Audio input for the T 758. These are HDMI,
BluOS, Optical and Coaxial digital inputs. Another option is “O” whereby
no incoming digital audio signal is selected by the particular Source.
The following are the sets of assignable Digital Audio input:
HDMI $ HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3
Optical $ Optical 1, Optical 2, Optical Front
Coaxial $ Coaxial 1, Coaxial 2
BluOS
VIDEO INPUT
All three HDMI sources can be assigned as video input to a particular Source.
Another option is “O” wherein the particular Source is prompted not to select
any Video input.
HDMI $ HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3
Previous $ Display or retain preceding video.
NOTE
The T 758 also supports HDMI features that include compatibility with a
broad range of 3D and HD digital video sources and displays.
A/V PRESET
A particular Source can be assigned a stored Preset. The parameters set up
in the selected Preset number will be adopted into the particular Source it
is assigned (Please refer to the separate section on “A/V Presets” for further
understanding of Preset settings).
A Source could be assigned a Preset number ranging from Preset 1 to 5.
If it is desired not to assign the particular Source a Preset setting, select “None”.
TRIGGER OUT
The Trigger Out for a particular Source is dependent upon the
congurations done in a separate menu on Trigger Setup (See “Trigger
Setup” below).
For “Trigger Out” to become enabled and assignable at “Source Setup”
menu, make sure to carry out or note the following beforehand
• In the separate “Trigger Setup” menu, assign “ Trigger 1 Out” to “Source
Setup”.
• “Trigger Out” option will only be “None” if at the separate “Trigger Setup”
menu, “ Trigger 1 Out” is assigned to either ‘Main” or “Zone 2”.
Set “Trigger Out” to “Trigger 1” to activate Trigger Out or “None” to disable it.
ENGLISH
NOTE
An incoming digital signal present at the assigned digital input will always
take precedence over the assigned analog audio input, even if both are
present. To maintain the analog audio input for the particular Source, select
“O” at the “Digital Audio” setting of the same “Source” menu.

OPERATION
USING THE T 758 SETUP MENU
SPEAKER SETUP
After connecting all ancillary sources and other combinations, the Speaker
Setup menu will guide you on how to manage and setup your speakers in
order to achieve optimum sound acoustics in your listening environment.
The following are the Speaker Setup Menu sections.
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION
Every surround-sound system requires “bass-management” to direct lowfrequency content from any or all channels to the speakers best able to
reproduce it. For this function to operate correctly, it is important that you
correctly identify your speakers’ capabilities. We use the terms “Small” and
“Large” (and “O”) but note that physical size may be irrelevant.
• A “Small” speaker is any model, regardless of physical size, that lacks
signicant deep-bass response, that is, below about 200 Hz.
• A “Large” speaker is any full-range model; that is, one with deep-bass
response
• An “O” speaker is one that is not present in your system. For example,
you might not have any surround-back speakers installed; in that case,
you would set the “Back” setup item to “O”. For “Height” speakers,
selecting “O” option for “Height 1” will automatically cut o both
Height 1 and Height 2 Audio output.
The Speaker Conguration is “global”; that is, it remains in force with all inputs
and in all listening modes. However, speaker settings are part of the T 758’s
Preset system. Consequently, multiple speaker settings can be stored for easy
recall as dierent types of recordings or listening modes require.
ENHANCED BASS
When the subwoofer is set to ON and “Front” is set to “Large”, Enhanced
Bass is also available. Normally, with speakers set to “Large” the subwoofer
is not active. The Enhanced Bass option allows full range operation of
the speakers with the additional bass contribution of the subwoofer. This
feature is particularly useful when one wants to experience maximum
bass output. Please note that due to acoustic cancellation eects, the bass
response may be uneven when using this setting
You can set Subwoofer to “On” even with “Large” front speakers, in which
case bass content from any channels set to “Small” will be routed to both
the subwoofer and to the front speakers; LFE-channel signal will pass only
to the sub. In most subwoofer-equipped systems, setting front speakers to
“Small” is usually the better option.
All the speakers’ low frequency content can be directly adjusted within the
range 40Hz to 200Hz.
NOTE
The congurations set forth at “Speaker Setup” are carried over
whenever it is enabled during A/V Presets setting. Please see also the
section “A/V Presets” for reference.
SPEAKER LEVELS
Adjusting the relative balance of your system’s loudspeakers ensures that
surround-sound recordings, whether music or lm, will present the balance
of eects, music, and dialog that the artists intended. Additionally, if your
system incorporates a subwoofer, it establishes a correct relationship
between the volume of the subwoofer and the other speakers, and thus of
low-frequencies (bass) to other sonic elements.
USING AN SPL METER
It is quite practical to perform the T 758 level setup routines “by ear,” and
careful work will produce acceptably accurate results. However, the use
of an inexpensive sound-pressure level (SPL) meter, such as Radio Shack
part number 33-2050, makes this task easier, more accurate and more
repeatable. Ownership of such a meter could prove a valuable audio tool.
Speaker Conguration can be managed and adjusted by pressing a
combination of [ S ] and then [ D/F] keys. Set “Front”, “Center” and
“Surround” to “Large”, “Small” or “O” as your subsystem’s speakers require.
The “Back” speakers can either be one or two speakers. Set “Back” to either 1 or 2
speakers as per availability. Set “Subwoofer” to “On” or “O,” selecting “On” only if
you have a subwoofer connected to the T 758’s SUBW output jack.
HEIGHT 1/HEIGHT 2
“Height 1” and “Height 2” AUDIO PRE-OUT can be connected to the audio
input of an external power amplier hooked up with up to 4 Height
speakers. Height1/Height 2 settings must be set to “On” at the “Speaker
Conguration” menu to power up the additional Height speakers.
The SPL meter should be placed at the primary listening position, at
approximately the height of the seated listener’s head. A tripod is helpful
but with a little duct tape almost anything - a pole lamp, music-stand, or
ladder-backed chair, for example - can do as well. Just be sure that no large
acoustically reective surfaces obstruct or are near the microphone element.
Orient the meter with its microphone (usually at one end) pointing straight
up toward the ceiling (not toward the speakers) and ensure that “C”
weighting scale is selected. Set the meter to display 75 dB SPL. On Radio
Shack meters, this necessitates either setting the meter to its 80 dB range
and taking your readings at the -5 point or selecting the 70 dB range and
reading at the +5 point.

OPERATION
USING THE T 758 SETUP MENU
SETTING SPEAKER LEVELS AT TEST MODE
While at “Speaker Levels” menu, press the AVR 4 remote’s [ TEST] key
activating the T 758’s Speaker Levels balancing test signal. You will hear
a “surf” sound as you step through your speakers (“Test Mode Active” is
shown beside the Speaker Setup heading), beginning with the Front Left.
If you do not hear the test signal, check your speaker connections or your
“Speaker Conguration” OSD menu settings.
Use the remote’s [ D/F ] keys to adjust the loudness of the noise output
from the currently playing channel to the required level (it’s usually
simplest to begin with the Front Left). As you cycle the test signal around
the speakers, the OSD will highlight the currently playing channel. The
“level oset” reading on the right will change by 1 dB increments; ±12 dB
adjustment is available. Press [ENTER] to adjust the next speaker.
NOTE
If you are balancing levels “by ear”, choose one speaker - usually the
center - as a reference and adjust each of the others in turn to “sound as
loud” as the reference. Be sure that you remain in the primary listening
position while balancing all channels.
To produce the same SPL meter reading (or subjective loudness), use the
remote’s [ D/F ] keys to adjust each speaker.
NOTES
• All speakers must be in their nal locations before level-setting.
• Your subwoofer (if any) should be set with its integral crossover
defeated, or if undefeatable, set to its highest-possible frequency if
you are using the T 758’s Subwoofer output. Final subwoofer-level
adjustment “by-ear,” using music and lm sound material, is frequently
useful.
• Due to the eects of room acoustics, matched-pair speakers (front; surround;
back) will not always calibrate to exactly the same level oset readings.
You can exit “Test” mode at any time by pressing [ A ] key, bringing you
back to “Speaker Setup” menu. You can also press the [TEST] key to
discontinue the “Test” mode.
SPEAKER DISTANCE
Your system’s speaker distance settings are a subtle but important
renement of your setup. Informing the T 758 of the loudspeaker-tolistener dimensions of each speaker automatically imposes the correct
delays, optimizing imaging, intelligibility and surround-sound ambience.
Enter your dimensions with precision within about 1 foot (30 cm).
DIRAC LIVE
The proprietary Dirac Live is integrated with your T 758. Dirac Live® is a
patented room correction technology that not only corrects the frequency
response, but also the impulse response of a room’s loudspeakers. Dirac
Live provides true impulse response correction over a large listening area,
improving the depth, positioning and distinction of individual voices and
instruments. Using multiple measurement and mixed phase correction,
Dirac Live helps create a natural, realistic and transparent sound with
tighter bass and reduced room modes, in a way previously not possible.
Initiate Dirac Live by following below Setup Requirements.
T 758
• Update your T 758 to the latest rmware.
• Speaker Conguration must match actual speaker setup – turn o
speakers that are not available.
• Both your computer and T 758 must be connected to the same
network.
MICROPHONE
• The supplied measurement microphone can be connected to either
the MIC or USB input of your computer or the USB input of the T 758.
• If the measurement microphone will be connected to the USB input of
your computer or the T 758, ensure that the measurement microphone,
phone jack adapter and USB Mic adapter are all connected together.
The USB Mic adapter is not necessary if the measurement microphone
will be connected to the MIC input of your computer,
• Minimize external noise such as talking, opening/closing of doors or
windows and playback of sound during the measurement.
• Use a microphone stand to rmly place the microphone in the
indicated measurement positions.
COMPUTER WINDOWS, macOS
• Both your computer and T 758 must be connected to the same
network.
• Any active rewalls should allow HTTP (normal WWW access).
• Turn o any computer programs that may make any noise.
• Download the Dirac Live Calibration Tool™ installer.
Run the Dirac Live Calibration Tool™. Follow on-screen instructions.

SETTING SPEAKER DISTANCE
While at “Speaker Distance” menu, use the [ D/F ] keys to individually set
the distance measured from your principal listening position to the front
surface of the corresponding loudspeaker. Distance can be set up to 30
feet or 9.1 meters. Distance can be displayed as feet or meters selectable at
the “Unit of Measure” item.

OPERATION
USING THE T 758 SETUP MENU
ADJUSTING THE VOLUME
In addition to the Volume knob, use the AVR 4’s VOL [ ] to adjust the
“master volume” of the T 758 raising or lowering the channels altogether. A
momentary keypress will change the master volume by 1 dB increments. If
you hold down VOL [ ], the master-volume change will “run-on” until
the key is released.
Since recordings vary considerably in overall average level, there is no
imperative to listen at any particular master-volume setting. A setting
of -20dB may sound “as loud” from one CD or DVD as -10dB does from
another.
The T 758 will power-up from Standby mode at whatever master volume
setting was last used; however, if the prior setting was greater than -20dB,
the T 758 will power up at -20dB. This prevents inadvertently beginning a
session at excessive volume.
ZONE 2 SETUP
The Zone 2 feature allows one to simultaneously experience in a dierent
zone of the house selected audio from any of the enabled Sources as well
as from Front Input and Media Player.
VOLUME
Zone 2 have Fixed and Variable volume control. When set to “Variable”
and while at the “Zone Controls” menu OSD, the Zone 2 Volume level can
be adjusted using the AVR 4’s [D/F] or the corresponding front panel
navigation buttons or directly via ZR 7’s [VOL d/f].
On the other hand, if Volume is set to “Fixed”, the Zone 2 Volume is set to
a preset dB level and thereafter the Zone’s volume can be varied via the
volume control of the separate amplier it is fed into.
See discussion also about “Zone Controls” at the Main Menu.
MUTING THE SOUND
Use the AVR 4’s [MUTE] key to silence all channels completely. Muting is
always available regardless of the source or listening mode selections.
NOTES
• Changing input or listening-mode selections does not release muting.
• Adjusting the volume level via the AVR 4 or the front panel volume knob
will automatically release the mute function.
AMPLIFIER SETUP
If the surround back speakers are not used in the main zone, their surround
back amplier channels could be assigned for Back, Height 1, Height 2,
Zone 2 and Front (Bi-Amp) use.
The Surround Back amplier is congurable through the following settings
Back: Assign as surround back speakers.
Front (Bi-Amp): Provide a bi-amp mode for the Main Front speakers
(Left and Right) speakers thus reproducing the Front Left and Front
Right amplier channel outputs.
Zone 2: Assign the surround back amplier channels to supply Zone 2
speaker level outputs from the surround back speaker terminals. Refer
also to the item about “ZONE 2 AT AUDIO PRE-OUT SURROUND BACK”
in the “ZONE CONTROLS” segment of the “OPERATION - USING THE
T 758 - MAIN MENU” section.
Height 1/Height 2: Assign as Height 1 or Height 2 speakers.

TRIGGER SETUP
The T 758 features a congurable +12V TRIGGER OUT that can be used to
activate a component or system it is fed into. It is used to turn on/o other
compliant devices.
The T 758’s +12V TRIGGER OUT is dependent on which mode it is
associated with. There are three choices where the +12V TRIGGER OUT can
be assigned and these are - Main, Zone 2 and Source Setup.
Main: +12V DC is available at +12V TRIGGER OUT when the T 758 is at
powered state.
Zone 2: When the Zone 2 is at powered state, +12V DC is available at
+12V TRIGGER OUT.
Source Setup: If Trigger Output is linked to “Source Setup”, +12V DC
is available at +12V TRIGGER OUT whenever the particularly assigned
Source is selected.
LISTENING MODE SETUP
ENGLISH
The T 758 has various listening mode options and is mostly congurable.
These are provided to reproduce a variety of sound eects depending
upon the content of the source to be played.
LISTENING MODES
The audio format as detected by the selected Source can be automatically
congured and processed through the following options:
DELAY
The availability of +12V DC at Trigger Out can be regulated. If it is desired
that +12V DC is available without delay the moment Trigger Out is linked
to its assigned setting, set Delay to 0s. Otherwise, one can select through a
delay time of 1s to 15s.
DOLBY DIGITAL
Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed in the
Dolby laboratories. Discs bearing the Dolby Digital (double-D symbol) logo
were recorded with up to 5.1 channels of digital signals, reproducing a
much better sound quality, with dynamic and spatial sound sensations that
are much better than in the previous Dolby Surround.
A Dolby Digital audio input can be congured relative to its format as
follows
Stereo: If the detected audio is of Dolby stereo format, you can default
it to either Dolby Surround or None.
Surround: If the detected audio is of Dolby Surround format, you can
default it to one of the following settings - Dolby Surround, Stereo
Downmix or None.
None: If “None” is selected, the Dolby Digital signal will be defaulted
to its native format. With this setting, “Direct” becomes available as a
Listening Mode option.

OPERATION
USING THE T 758 SETUP MENU
DTS
The Digital Theater System Digital Surround (simply called DTS) is a multichannel digital signal format that can process higher data rates than with
Dolby Digital. Although both Dolby Digital and DTS are 5.1 channel media
formats, discs bearing the “DTS” symbol are thought to provide better
sound quality due to the lower audio compression required. It also oers a
broader dynamic, producing magnicent sound quality.
A DTS audio input can be congured relative to its format as follows
Stereo: If the detected audio is of DTS format, you can default it to one
of the following settings - NEO:6 Cinema, NEO:6 Music or None.
Surround: If the detected audio is of DTS Surround format, you can
default it to one of the following settings - NEO:6 Cinema, NEO:6 Music,
Stereo Downmix or None.
None: If “None” is selected, the DTS signal will be defaulted to its native
format. With this setting, “Direct” becomes available as a Listening Mode
option.
PCM
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) is the digital representation of a standard
audio signal converted with little or no compression. If “None” is selected,
the audio signal will be defaulted to its native format.
Stereo: The detected stereo audio format will be congured into one
of the following options - Dolby Surround, NEO:6 Cinema, NEO:6 Music,
EARS, Enhanced Stereo or None.
Surround: The detected surround audio format will be congured
into one of the following options - Dolby Surround, NEO:6 Music,
NEO:6Cinema, Stereo Downmix or None.
ANALOG
If the audio input is an analog signal, the following are the surround modes
the input can be defaulted - Dolby Surround, NEO: 6 Cinema, NEO: 6 Music,
EARS, Enhanced Stereo, Analog Bypass and None.
NOTE
Applicable Listening Modes can also be directly selected by repeatedly
pressing front panel LISTENING MODE button.
LISTENING MODES
The T 758 oers distinct listening modes, tailored for dierent types of
recording or program material. With a two-channel (Stereo) source, the
following listening modes can be selected.
STEREO
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, 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 “Stereo Downmix” mode via the
front left/right channels only as Lt/Rt (left/right-total) signals.
DIRECT
The analog or digital sources are automatically played in their native
formats. All the source’s audio channels are reproduced directly. This
mode recreates the original sound most faithfully thereby producing
outstandingly high quality audio. Note that the source must be at playback
mode for “Direct” to become available as a listening mode option. In order
to automatically playback your source in their native format, implement the
following settings.
1 Go to “Listening Mode Setup” under “Setup Menu”. At the “Listening Modes”
menu, set all Dolby, DTS, PCM and Analog settings to “None”. With this
setup, your source will be played back directly at its native format.
2 Next, go to “A/V Presets” under “Setup Menu”. At “A/V Presets” menu, set
“Listening Mode Setup” item to “Yes” and then save this setting among
other options, say to “Preset 1”, by selecting “Save Current Setup to
Preset”.
3 Now, you can associate “Preset 1” to any of the “Source” settings. For
example, at Source 1 setting under “Source Setup”, scroll down to “A/V
Preset” item and set it to “Preset 1”. Thus whenever Source1 is selected,
the associated source will always be directly played back at its native
audio format.
NEO: 6
Two-channel recordings, whether stereo or surround-encoded, are
reproduced with NEO:6 surround with output to front left/right, center and
discrete left/right surround channels plus subwoofer (assuming these are
present in the current “Speaker Conguration”). The T 758 provides two DTS
NEO:6 variations – NEO:6 Cinema and NEO:6 Music.
24
NEO: 6 Cinema is optimized for lm soundtracks.
NEO: 6 Music for music recordings
Center Gain (0 to 0.5): Adjust for better center image in relation to
the surround sound channels.
Page 25
OPERATION
USING THE T 758 SETUP MENU
EARS
Two-channel recordings, whether stereo or surround-encoded, are
reproduced with proprietary NAD surround processing with signal output
to the front left/right, center and discrete left/right surround channels,
plus subwoofer (assuming these are present in the current “Speaker
Conguration”). 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 of the 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
nearly all “natural-acoustic” stereo recordings. Typically, these include
classical, jazz, and folk genres as well as numerous examples from others.
Its 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 congured in the current “Speaker Conguration”. Enhanced
stereo can be useful for maximum volume from all channels or for multispeaker background music (cocktail party) listening. For this mode, Front,
Center, Surround and Back speakers can be turned ON/OFF as desired.
ANALOG BYPASS APPLICABLE ONLY WHEN THE SOURCE
SELECTED IS 7.1 CHANNEL INPUT DEFAULTED TO SOURCE 7
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 eect as these are DSP functions.
DOLBY SETUP
ENGLISH
Dynamic Range Control: You can select the eective dynamic range
(subjective range from soft to loud) for playback of Dolby Digital
soundtracks. For fully cinematic eect, always select 100%, the default.
Settings of 75%, 50%, and 25% progressively reduce dynamic range,
making soft sounds comparatively louder while limiting the peak
loudness of loud ones.
The 25% setting will yield the least dynamic range and is best for latenight sessions or other times when you wish to retain maximum dialog
intelligibility while minimizing overall volume levels.
For Dolby TrueHD sources, set the Dynamic Range Control to “Auto”.
Center Spread: Center image is spread into the Left and Right
speakers. It is designed to complement musical content or to spread
the dialogue more evenly across a wide screen display.
On: Center Spread function is enabled.
O: Center Spread function is disabled.
