The ON/OFF power control is managed by the Automated Turn-On logic or ATO Logic circuit that requires the amplifier to be switched back to standby

CI9120_9060 manual (GB) 12/12/02 9:09 pm Page 7 Operation NAD OMC NAD’s proprietary Output Management Circuit (OMC) ensures that the full power is available at any reasonable load impedance. The OMC controls individual amplifier channels by managing the input level, in case of deliberately excessive input signal, and/or output level, in case of speaker or speaker cable fault. This not only protects the amplifier, but it also prevents loads attached to the amplifier from heating up excessivel

We recommend that you use a good quality cable with shield when attaching the 3.5mm monotype plugs so as to prevent false triggering of the amplifier due to electro-magnetic interference from nearby electronic equipment.

At moments when the amplifier is producing maximum power, voltages of nearly 100V may be present on the speaker terminals, so plastic covers protect the terminals. To connect lou

An in-phase connection is assured if the red (positive) terminal on the amplifier is connected to the red (positive) terminal on the loudspeaker in each channel. If your speakers are easily moved, their phasing can easily be checked. Make the connections to bot
