820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in
particular, species that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
15 Lightning - For added protection for this product during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or
cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning
and power-line surges.
16 Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits,
or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an
outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from
touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be
fatal.
17 Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or
integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of re or
electric shock.

THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING NAD.
The VISO TWO DVD Receiver is a technologically advanced and highly capable
product — yet we have invested great eort in making it simple and easy
to use. The VISO TWO delivers a range of genuinely useful options for stereo
listening, using powerful digital signal processing and superbly accurate
digital-audio circuitry. However, we have also been careful to ensure that
the VISO TWO 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 VISO TWO’s design, such
that it can condently promise you both state-of-the-art 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 NAD VISO TWO, and get the most from this
powerful and exible home-theater component.
One more thing: We urge you to register your VISO TWO ownership on the
NAD Worldwide Web site:

ABOUT VISO TWO
Though the VISO TWO is among the most technically sophisticated DVD
Receivers, we worked hard to make it one of the most musically transparent
home-theater components available as well; this is what we mean by NAD’s
“Music First” design philosophy. Here are just few examples:
• High-performance components used throughout VISO TWO’s analog
audio circuits to maximize quality from all sources, including multichannel analog sources such as DVD-Audio.
• The VISO TWO has exceptional playability. It has support for DVD-Video,
DVD-R/-RW/+R/+RW, DVD-A, SVCD with or without PBC (Play Back
Control), VCD, DivX, Audio CD, CD-R/-RW and including recorded MP3,
copyright-protected WMA and JPEG les.
• 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.
EASE OF USE
Despite the eort NAD has invested in the VISO TWO’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 6 universal
remote control is equally understandable, as are the VISO TWO’s own frontpanel and on-screen displays.
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 VISO TWO 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 VISO TWO permits exible system growth. We have made the more
likely scenario of software upgrades easy to accomplish via the high speed
RS-232 port on the rear panel (and in combination with the LOAD SW
switch also on the rear panel). Owners who register their VISO TWO 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 VISO TWO to a PC.
Alternatively the dealer from whom you purchased your VISO TWO should
be able to assist in performing these upgrades.
ABOUT THE HTR 6 SYSTEM REMOTE CONTROL
Packed with your VISO TWO is the NAD HTR 6 remote control, a full-system
remote especially designed for easy use and understanding. Be sure to
read the section “Using the HTR 6 Remote Control”, to familiarize yourself
with the remote’s layout and operations before proceeding to setup
your VISO TWO. You may opt to use your HTR 6 as your primary way to
command your entire AV system. The HTR 6 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.
INTRODUCTION
GETTING STARTED
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
Packed with your VISO TWO you will nd
• An AM loop antenna.
• A FM ribbon-wire antenna with balun.
• A removable AC cable (if you wish, any IEC-standard AC cable of suitable
wattage may be substituted).
• The HTR 6 remote control with 4 (four) AAA batteries.
• This owner’s manual.
SAVE THE PACKAGING
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your VISO TWO
arrived. Should you move or otherwise need to transport your VISO TWO,
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 VISO TWO’s front panel and your primary
listening/viewing position—this will ensure reliable infrared remote control
communications. The VISO TWO generates a modest amount of heat, but
nothing that should trouble adjacent components.
It is especially important that sucient ventilation be provided. If you
are contemplating on locating the VISO TWO within a cabinet or other
furniture, consult your NAD audio/video specialist for advice on providing
adequate airow.
QUICK START
In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your
new NAD VISO TWO, we provide the following “Quick Start” instructions to
get you underway. Before the steps below, connect your VISO TWO to a
TV/monitor.
Please make all the connections to your VISO TWO 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.

• Connect the VISO TWO’s composite Video or S-Video “MONITOR OUT”
jack to your TV/monitor’s corresponding input.
• Connect your speakers to the VISO TWO’s “L” and “R” terminals. Make
sure to connect red to red (“+”) and black to black (“-”) with care to
avoid stray wires or strands crossing between terminals. If your system
includes a powered subwoofer, connect the VISO TWO’s “SUBWOOFER
PRE-OUT” jack to its line input.
• Connect the AC cord to the AC inlet and then plug into an AC outlet;
the LED indicator around the POWER button will be illuminated amber
indicating the VISO TWO is in standby mode ready to accept commands
from either the front panel power switch or the HTR 6 remote.
• Press “DVD” at the HTR 6 remote’s Device Selector section and then
“OPEN/CLOSE” button.
• Insert the media and press [ PLAY] button to start playback.
You should hear sound from VISO TWO, and see an image on the
TV/monitor. (If one or the other fails to appear, check your TV/monitor’s
input settings or VISO TWO’s audio/video connections).
