THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING NAD

The L70 A/V Surround Sound DVD Receiver is a technologically advanced and highly capable product-yet we have invested great effort in making it

simple and easy to use. The L70 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 receiver 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-theatre

components. As with all our products, NAD's "Music First" design philosophy guided the L70's design, such that it can confidently promise you both

state-of-the-art surround home-theatre 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 L70, and get the most from this

powerful and flexible home-theatre component.

One more thing: We urge you to register your L70 ownership on the NAD Worldwide Web site:

http://NADelectronics.com/w/Registration.html

For warranty information contact your local distributor.

UNPACKING AND SETUP

WHAT'S IN THE BOX

Packed with your L70 receiver you will find:

· An AM loop antenna

· An FM ribbon-wire antenna with balun

· The HTR L70 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 L70 arrived. Should you move or otherwise

need to transport your receiver, 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 25 feet/8 meters, between the receiver's front panel and your

primary listening/viewing position-this will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications. The

L70 generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should trouble adjacent components. It is

perfectly possible to stack the L70 atop other components, but the reverse usually should be avoided.

Nonetheless, it is generally preferable that the L70 stands alone. It is especially important that sufficient

ventilation be provided; if you are contemplating locating the L70 within a cabinet or other furniture,

consult your NAD audio/video specialist for advice on providing adequate airflow.

ABOUT THE L70

Though the L70 is among the most technically sophisticated integrated A/V & DVD receivers, we worked

hard to make it one of the most musically transparent home-theatre components available as well; this is

what we mean by NAD's "Music First" design philosophy. Here are just a few examples:

· High-performance components used throughout the receiver's analog audio circuits maximize

quality from all sources, including multichannel analog sources such as DVD-Audio and SACD.

· The L70 incorporates a high quality DVD player with exceptional playability. The player has support

for DVD video and audio, VCD, SVCD with playback control (PBC), CD audio such as CD-RW as

well as MP3. As with all NAD DVD players, a set of convenient navigation buttons is provided on

the front panel. See "Front Panel Controls".

· Gold-surfaced connectors are employed throughout to ensure maximum signal integrity.

E.A.R.S. AND DIGITAL SURROUND

A key element of the L70'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

L70's substantial DSP power to route the ambient content that is "encrypted" in virtually all natural-

acoustic recordings to the appropriate main, centre and surround speakers, without resorting to artificially

generated reflections or regeneration. EARS' natural ambience yields a subtle but exceptionally effective

surround mode that naturally enhances the spatial presentation in a fashion suitable for serious music

listening. Dolby ProLogic II Music, Movie and Emulation modes can also create enjoyable experiences from

2-channel sources.

On the digital side, the L70 combines extraordinarily high-speed DSP processing employing one of the

most advanced high-speed DSP "engines" available, with fully 24-bit, 96 kHz-sampling-capable D/A

converters for all channels. A single, high-precision master clock synchronises 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 5.1-channel reproduction, with genuinely

superior sound quality in all modes.

EASE OF USE

Despite the effort NAD has invested in the L70 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 L70 universal remote control is equally understandable, as are the L70's own front-panel and on-

screen displays (OSD).

UPGRADABILITY

The L70 receiver permits flexible system growth via individually accessible 5.1 channel input for

connectivity to products with integrated surround decoders.

See "Rear Panel (5.1 CH. INPUT)".

ABOUT THE HTR L70 SYSTEM REMOTE CONTROL

Packed with your L70 is the NAD HTR L70 remote control, a full-system remote especially designed to be easy

to use and easy to understand. Be sure to read the section "Using the HTR L70 Remote Control," to familiarize

yourself with the remote's layout and operations before proceeding to setup your receiver.

Chances are, you will want to use your HTR L70 as your primary way to command your entire A/V system.

The HTR L70 can be employed to operate additional NAD or other-brand components such as a second

DVD/CD player, television, satellite/HDTV tuner, VCR, or virtually anything else that operates via standard

infrared remote control.

QUICKSTART

In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your new NAD L70 DVD/Receiver, we

provide the following "Quickstart" instructions to get you underway. The steps below connect your L70

to a TV/monitor; be sure to read "Input Setup".

PLAY A DVD MOVIE

· Connect the L70's composite video or S-Video "MONITOR OUT" jack to your TV/monitor's

corresponding input.

· Depending on the selection above, switch the "OSD SELECTOR" switch to either S-Video or

Composite position (found on the back of the L70 beside the Composite Output "MONITOR" jack.

· Connect your left and right front speakers to the L70's "FRONT L and R" outputs, being sure to

connect red to red ("+") and black to black ("-"), with care to avoid stray wires or strands crossing

between terminals. (Connect centre and surround speakers as well, if you like). If your system includes

a powered subwoofer, connect the L70's "SUBWOOFER PRE-OUT" jack to its line input.

· Plug the AC mains plug into the AC; the LED on the front panel will be lit blue indicating the L70 is in

standby mode ready to accept commands from either the front panel power switch or the HTR L70 remote.

·To start playback of the DVD player; press the HTR L70 remote's "DVD" Device Selector key, and then

its transport key "Open/Close" to select the DVD, insert the media and press the transport

play

key to start playing. You should hear multichannel or stereo sound, and see an image on the

TV/monitor. (If one or the other fails to appear, you may need to use either the L70's Receiver or DVD

on-screen menu systems to check assignment of audio and video inputs; see "Input Setup".)

Enjoy the movie or music, but be sure to set aside time to read this manual thoroughly, and to set up,

calibrate, and configure your L70 carefully and completely.
