9. BALANCE
The BALANCE control adjusts the relative levels of the left and right
speakers. The 12 o'clock position provides equal level to the left and
right channels. A detent indicates this position.
Rotating the control clockwise moves the balance towards the right.
Rotating the control anti-clockwise moves the balance to the left. The
BALANCE control does not affect recordings made using the Tape
outputs but will affect the signal going to the Pre-amp output (Pre Out).
10. VOLUME
The VOLUME control adjusts the overall loudness of the signals being
fed to the loudspeakers. It is motor driven and can be adjusted from the
remote control handset. The VOLUME control does not affect recordings
made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal going to the Pre-
amp output (Pre Out).
POWERDRIVE
To meet the diverse requirements of high current drive and high
dynamic power, our patented PowerDrive amplifier circuit will build
further on our reputation for amazingly effective power. By adding a
second high-voltage rail to our well regulated high-current power
supply, we get an "overdrive" that can nearly double the continuous
power on a short term dynamic power basis. This is a further
development and refinement of our renowned Power Envelope circuit,
utilized by NAD in the 80's and 90's. PowerDrive differs from Power
Envelope in that it offers greater amplifier stability and low impedance
drive capability, resulting in less distortion when driving real speakers
with real program material.
RECORDING
TO MAKE A RECORDING
When any source is selected, its signal is also fed directly to any tape
machine connected to the TAPE 2 or TAPE 1 OUTPUTS for recording.
TAPE TO TAPE COPYING
You can copy between two tape machines connected to your NAD
C 352. Put the source tape in the recorder connected to Tape 2 and the
blank tape into the recorder connected to Tape 1. By selecting TAPE 2
Input you can now record from Tape 2 to Tape 1 and monitor the signal
coming from the original tape.
REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET (FIGURE 3)
The Remote Control handset handles all the key functions of the NAD
C 352 and has additional controls to remotely operate NAD Tuners,
Cassette and CD machines. It will operate up to a distance of 16ft (5m).
Alkaline batteries are recommended for maximum operating life. Four
AAA (R 03) batteries should be fitted in the battery compartment at the
back of the Remote Control handset. When replacing batteries, check
that they have been put in the right way round, as indicated on the base
of the battery compartment. Please refer to previous sections of the
manual for a full description of individual functions.
When a command from the remote control is received, the Standby/
protection indicator will blink. Note that the indicator may also blink
when receiving commands not necessarily for the C 352 but for other
components in the system.
POWER ON AND OFF BUTTONS
The NAD C 352 remote has a separate On and Off button. This can be
particularly useful to keep components within a system "in sync": This
way all components will switch to stand-by when Off is pressed or
switch to operating mode when On is pressed, instead of some
components switching On when the amplifier is switched to Stand-by.
(Note that the other components have to be capable of responding to
the separate On and Off commands as well). Press the ON button to
switch the unit from Stand-by to the operating mode; The Stand-by
indicator (Fig. 2; No. 2) will turn from amber, to red, then to green and
the indicator for the last selected input will blink and light up. Press the
OFF button to switch the unit to the Stand-by mode: The Stand-by
indicator will light up amber.
MUTE
Press the MUTE Button to temporarily switch off the sound to the
speakers and headphones. Mute mode is indicated by the active input
indicator on the front panel flashing. Press MUTE again to restore sound.
Mute does not affect recordings made using the Tape outputs but will
affect the signal going to the Preamp output (Pre Out).
INPUTS
The input selector buttons perform the same functions as the buttons
labelled the same on the front panel.
MASTER VOLUME
Press the MASTER VOLUME
increase or decrease the loudness level. Release the button when the
desired level is reached. The motorised Volume Control on the front
panel will indicate the level set. The Master Volume buttons do not
affect recordings made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal
going to the Preamp output (Pre Out).
