RECORD YOUR MODEL NUMBER NOW, WHILE YOU CAN SEE IT
The model and serial number of your new T 765 are located on the back of
the cabinet. For your future convenience, we suggest that you record these
numbers here:
The T 765 A/V Receiver is a technologically advanced and highly capable
product — yet we have invested great eort in making it simple and
easy to use. The T 765 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 765 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 765’s design, such that it can condently 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 T 765, and get the most from this powerful
and exible home-theater component.
One more thing: We urge you to register your T 765 ownership on the NAD
Worldwide Web site:
http://NADelectronics.com/warranty
For warranty information contact your local distributor.
INTRODUCTION
ABOUT THE T 765
Though the T 765 is among the most technically sophisticated A/V Receiver,
we worked hard to make it one of the most musically transparent hometheater components available as well; this is what we mean by NAD’s “Music
First” design philosophy. Here are just few examples:
• The T 765 uses NAD’s proprietary Power Drive™ amplier technology
for all channels to preserve accurate, linear reproduction regardless
of the loudspeaker. This uniquely ecient power-supply topology
provides the real-world benets of high dynamic power that remains
uncompromised by low-impedance speakers. The result is dynamic,
detailed, “un-receiver-like” sound in stereo and multi-channel modes
alike. NAD’s exclusive Soft Clipping™ circuitry further enhances sound
quality and dynamic potential.
• High-performance components used throughout the A/V Receiver’s
analog audio circuits maximize quality from all sources, including multichannel analog sources such as DVD-Audio and SACD.
• Audio pre-out jacks make potential expansion as exible as possible..
• A second set of speaker terminals (Speakers B) for remote listening.
• 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
A key element of the T 765’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 765’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 articially generated reections
or regeneration. EARS’ natural ambience yields a subtle but exceptionally
eective surround mode that naturally enhances the spatial presentation in
a fashion suitable for serious music listening.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music and DTS Neo: 6 Music modes can also create
enjoyable experience from 2-channel sources.
On the digital side, the T 765 combines extraordinarily high-speed DSP
processing employing one of the most advanced high-speed DSP “engines”
available, with fully 24-bit, 192 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.
ZONE
The T 765 A/V Receiver is equipped with three congurable Zones that
make full use of video and pre-amp level audio outputs. The ZR 4 remote
control will allow you complete access to Zone 2 applications including
access to volume On/O and all sources inputs. Zone 3 and Zone 4 could
be congured and managed at the appropriate Zone OSD menu using the
front panel navigations keys as well as the corresponding keys on the HTR 3
remote control.
RS 232
Flexible system conguration is possible with the RS-232 interface and
NAD’s proprietary Windows® compatible software. We are also certied
partners with AMX and Crestron and fully support these external devices.
This interface allows complete remote control of the T 765 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
The T 765 A/V Receiver permits exible 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 765. Owners who register
their T 765 on our international web site www.NADelectronics.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 les from our
web site, via e-mail and installing them by connecting the T 765 to a PC.
Alternatively the dealer from whom you purchased your T 765 should be
able to assist in performing these upgrades.
ABOUT THE HTR 3 SYSTEM REMOTE CONTROL
Packed with your T 765 is the NAD HTR 3 remote control, a full-system
remote especially designed for easy use and understanding. Be sure to read
the section “Using the HTR 3 Remote Control”, to familiarize yourself with
the remote’s layout and operations before proceeding to setup your A/V
Receiver. You may opt to use your HTR 3 as your primary way to command
your entire A-V system. The HTR 3 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
Despite the eort NAD has invested in the T 765 A/V 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 3 universal remote control is equally understandable, as are the T 765’s
own front-panel and on-screen displays. Its simple yet powerful system
of “presets” permits you to ne-tune your listening setup for dierent
conditions, sources, or listeners, and to recall these multiple parameters
with a single key press.
INTEGRATION
The T 765 A/V Receiver oers extensive, exible system-integration options
through its congurable DC trigger outputs and input, and its standardprotocol IR communications links. The DC trigger outputs can be assigned
to either Local and/or Zone locations.
• A removable AC cable (if you wish, any IEC-standard AC cable of suitable wattage may be substituted).
• The HTR 3 remote control with 4 (four) AAA batteries.
• The ZR 4 zone remote control with 3V CR2025 battery.
• This owner’s manual.
SAVE THE PACKAGING
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your T 765 arrived. Should you move or
otherwise need to transport your T 765, 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!
INITIAL SETUP
Before you make the rst connection to your T 765, you should have the arrangement of your
listening room/home theater components and furniture mapped out, at least initially. Unfortunately, a
discussion of the vital questions of loudspeaker placement and listening/viewing positions is beyond
our scope here.
Suce it to say that these two questions will inuence your system’s ultimate performance every bit
as powerfully as your selection of electronics and speakers. Your NAD audio specialist dealer will be
happy to advise you and to recommend reference materials.
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 25 feet/8 meters, between the T 765’s front panel and your
primary listening/viewing position—this will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications.
The T 765 generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should trouble adjacent components.
It is perfectly possible to stack the T 765 on top of other components, but the reverse usually should
be avoided. Nonetheless, it is generally preferable that the T 765 stand alone. It is especially important
that sucient ventilation be provided. If you are contemplating on locating the T 765 within a cabinet
or other furniture, consult your NAD audio/video specialist for advice on providing adequate airow.
QUICK START
Packed with your T 765 is a Quick Start Guide that will guide you through typical setup congurations
in combination with your ancillary devices. The Quick Start Guide also features the contents of your
T 765 package as well as start up procedures.

viewed in their native format or via Component Video OUT.
DEALING WITH HUM AND NOISE
Hum and noise may sometimes prove a challenge in complex, multi-channel audio systems. Note
these considerations to help prevent hum and noise problems:
• Power all your system's audio component from AC outlets originating from the same circuit of your
house wiring. As far as possible, power all audio components from the same outlet, or adjacent
outlets on the same circuit. It may be useful to power video displays (and computers!) from outlets
on another circuit, especially if that circuit is supplied from the other "leg" of the house wiring.
• Do not bundle analog audio cables with AC power cables, or with coaxial digital-audio cables. It is
best if they cross at right angles if they must be in close proximity.
• Employ high-quality, well-shielded audio cable throughout, and ensure that all connections are
secure.
• A pencil-eraser can be used to burnish copper- and gold-plated contacts to ensure good, lowresistance contact; specialized contact-cleaners can also be useful. Avoid unnecessary unplugging
and re-plugging since the gold (or copper) contact plating of typical cable connectors, even very
high-quality ones, is very thin and easily worn.
Track down hum/noise problems one component at a time, working backwards from the A/V Receiver.
That is
a. Connect the speakers to the A/V Receiver only, and check for hum.
b. Then connect one component only (a CD player, for example) alone, with no other
components connected and check for hum.
c. Connect additional components, one at a time, to the A/V Receiver and check for hum.
At each stage, if hum/noise appears, examine the audio cabling and AC-power routing of the new
component. In some cases, moving the new component's AC cord to a dierent outlet, or installing a
ground-lift (3-to-2-prong adapter) on its power cord, will eliminate the hum.

DAB MODULE INPUT (Europe version only) : Plug-in the other end
of the Mini-Din connector from the NAD DAB Adaptor DB 1 module
output port into this socket. The T 765 is compatible only with NAD
DAB Adaptor DB 1 so check with your NAD dealer for this module’s
availability. With DAB, you can receive CD-like quality programs without
any annoying interference and signal distortion.
10 RS-232 : Connect this interface via RS-232 serial cable (not supplied)
to any Windows® compatible PC to allow remote control of the T 765
through NAD’s proprietary PC software or other compatible external
controllers. Please log on to www.nadelectronics.com/software for the
latest PC interface control software
NAD is a certied partner of AMX and Crestron and fully supports these
external devices. See your NAD audio specialist for more information
11 FM, AM ANTENNA INPUT : The supplied wire “dipole” FM antenna will
connect to the FM connector using the supplied “balun” adapter. It will
usually work best when mounted on a vertical surface such as a wall,
with arms fully outstretched forming a horizontal “T” perpendicular to
the origin point of the signal.
Connect the supplied AM loop antenna to these terminals. If an external
AM antenna is used, make connections to the AM and GND terminals
in accordance with the instructions supplied with the antenna. See also
section about ‘Listening to Radio.’
all channels. At ON position, Soft Clipping gently limits the output of
the T 765 to minimize audible distortion should the A/V Receiver be
over-driven. Soft Clipping may simply be left ON at all times to reduce
the likelihood of audible distortion from excessive volume settings.
However, for critical listening and to preserve optimum dynamics, you
may wish to defeat it by setting this switch OFF.
8 7.1 CH INPUT : Connect to the corresponding analog audio outputs of a
multichannel source component such as a DVD-Audio or multichannelSACD player or external multichannel decoder (disc copy protected
formats only allow analog signal transfer). Typically, these sources will
produce 5.1-channel output, in which case the Surround Back jacks are
left unconnected. The signals present at these jacks may be heard by
selecting Source 5 (External 7.1 audio input is defaulted to this Source).
There is no bass-management or other processing (other than master-
volume control) available to this 7.1 CH. Input. While the multi-channel
audio outputs of a DVD-Video player can be connected to these jacks,
using the T 765’s own Dolby Digital and DTS decoding and digital-analog
converters via a digital connection will usually produce superior results.
13 +12 V TRIGGER OUT : There are three congurable +12V TRIGGER
OUTPUT. Use a 3.5mm mini-jack connector to pass +12 volts at a
maximum current of 50 milliamps to auxiliary equipment such as a
multichannel amplier or subwoofer. The center conductor (hot) of the
3.5mm jack is the control signal. The outside conductor (shield) is the
ground return-path.
TRIGGER IN accepts 12V Trigger output of compatible components
such as power controllers and home automation devices.
TRIGGER OFF/AUTO. When at AUTO position, the T 765 selects the 12V
Trigger Input to turn ON (if so assigned at the ‘Trigger Setup’ menu) and
at the same time disables the HTR 3 and front panel’s ON/OFF function.
When at OFF position, the trigger input is disabled.
WARNING
If Auto Trigger IN at Trigger Setup menu is assigned to ‘Main’ or ‘All’ and
the TRIGGER switch is set to ‘AUTO’ mode, the Power button in the front
panel as well as the corresponding ON/OFF function keys in the HTR 3
remote control will be disabled eectively handing this function to an
external controller. Switch TRIGGER to ‘OFF’ to maintain normal power
ON/OFF function procedures.
See discussion on ‘Trigger Setup’ at the ‘Setup Menu’ literature for
guidelines on how to congure TRIGGER IN/OUT.
14 IR IN/OUT : These mini-jacks accept and output remote-controlled
codes in electrical format, using industry-standard protocols, for use
with “IR-repeater” and multi-room systems and related technologies.
16 AUDIO PRE-OUT : The Audio PRE- OUT makes it possible to use the
T 765 as a pre-amplier to external power ampliers for some or all
channels. Connect FRONT L, FRONT R, CENTER, SURR R, SURR L, SURRBL, SURR-BR and CENTER to the respective channel input of a power
amplier or ampliers driving the corresponding applicable speakers.
Unlike the full range channels, there is no power amplier built-into the
T 765 for a subwoofer. Connect the SUBW 1 or SUBW 2 output or both
to powered (“active”) subwoofers or to power amplier channels driving
a passive system.
NOTE
Never connect both the external amplier and T 765’s speaker outputs to
the same set of speakers.
17 SPEAKERS A, SPEAKERS B : Connect the respective SPEAKER A’s
FRONT L, FRONT R, CENTER, SURR R, SURR L, SURR-BL, SURR-BR and
CENTER channels to their corresponding loudspeakers. Make sure
the “+” (red) terminal and “-“(black) terminal are connected to the
corresponding “+” and “-“terminals of the loudspeaker. Use extra care to
ensure that no stray wires or strands cross between posts or terminals at
either end.
Connect left and right channels of Speakers B to the corresponding
remote loudspeakers. When Speakers B is activated, the output is
converted to ‘Stereo Downmix’ as indicated in the VFD. Combining
Speaker A and Speaker B (SPEAKERS A + B) will also result to the source
being downmixed to stereo.
IR IN. This input is connected to the output of an IR (infrared) repeater
(Xantech or similar) or the IR output of another component to allow
control of the T 765 from a remote location.
IR OUT 2. When connected to the IR IN of an ancillary equipment,
direct the ancillary equipment’s own remote control to the T 765’s
infrared receiver to command or control the linked unit.
IR IN and IR OUT 3. Connect the T 765’s IR IN to the IR OUT of an
ancillary equipment. Connect also the T 765’s IR OUT 3 to another
equipment with IR IN feature. With this setup, the T 765 acts as an “IRrepeater” allowing the equipment connected to the T 765’ s IR IN control
or command of the other equipment linked to the T 765’s IR OUT 3.
IR OUT 1. In conjunction with IR IN, IR OUT 1 can be used as an “IR-
repeater” just like the IR OUT 3 as described above. It can also stand
alone as an IR OUT similar to that of IR OUT 2 function.
All NAD products with IR IN/IR OUT features are fully compatible with
the T 765. For non-NAD models, please check with your other product’s
service specialists as to their compatibility to the T 765’s IR features.
15 ZONE 2, ZONE 3, ZONE 4 : Sends zone selected audio and video
output sources to the corresponding audio and video input of another
separate zone. Use high quality patch cables to reduce noise pickup
over long distance runs. For a better understanding of zone settings,
study below the section on ‘Zone Controls’ of the ‘Main Menu’ discussion
as well as the item on ‘Zone Setup’ under the ‘Setup Menu’ literatures.
NOTE
The ZR 4 remote control will only control Zone 2 applications. Zone 3
and Zone 4 could be congured and managed at the appropriate Zone
OSD menu using the front panel navigations buttons as well as the
corresponding keys on the HTR 3 remote control.
The T 765 is designed to produce optimum sound quality when
connected to speakers with impedances within its operating range.
Please make sure that all the speakers are rated 4Ω minimum per speaker.
NOTE
Use stranded wire of at least 16 gauge (AWG). Connections to the T 765
can be made with banana plugs (US model only) or by using bare wire
or pins. Use the transverse hole through the post for bare-wire or pin
connections. By loosening the terminal’s plastic nut, make a clean, neat
connection and re-tighten carefully. To minimize the danger of shortcircuit, ensure that only 1/2-inch of exposed wire or pin is employed
when connecting.
18 AC POWER INLET : Connect to the supplied IEC-standard removable
AC power cord or a compatible cord.
19 SWITCHED AC OUTLET : This convenience outlet can supply switched
power to another component or accessory. It is powered ON and OFF
by the front panel POWER SWITCH or by the HTR 3’s ON and OFF keys.
The total draw of all devices connected to this jack must not exceed 120
watts.
20 POWER : The POWER switch supplies the master AC mains power for
the T 765. When this switch is at ON position, the T 765 is in standby
mode as shown by the amber status condition of the standby LED. If
you intend not to use the T 765 for long periods of time (such as when
on vacation), switch the POWER switch to the OFF position. When the
POWER switch is at OFF position, the front panel power button, HTR 3
remote control or ZR 4 cannot activate the T 765.
ABOUT THE ON-SCREEN DISPLAY (OSD)
The T 765 receiver employs a simple, self-explanatory system of on-screen display “menus” that will
appear on the connected video monitor/TV. These are required during the setup process (and are
useful in day-to-day operation), so be sure to connect the monitor/TV before proceeding with setup.
NOTE
The T 765’s OSD is available only at Component Video OUT, S-Video Monitor OUT and Composite
Video Monitor OUT. HDMI IN and HDMI OUT are direct pass-through signal without OSD.
DISPLAY THE OSD

for reference.
LISTENING MODE
The T 765 oers nine 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
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
“Stereo Downmix” mode via the front left/right channels only as Lt/Rt (left/right-total) signals.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC
Two-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 Conguration’). The surround channel is
monophobic, but it is reproduced in both surround speakers.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC PLII
Dolby Pro Logic II is a more recent evolution of the original Dolby Pro Logic surround processing that
yields more stable imaging and full bandwidth sound to the rear channels in Movie mode, oering
sound that is more similar to Dolby Digital decoding.
