1 COAX 1-2, OPT 1-2• Connect to the corresponding optical or coaxial digital output ofsources such as CD or BD/DVD players, digital cable box, digitaltuners and other applicable components.2 COAXIAL OUT, OPTICAL OUT,• Connect the optical or coaxial DIGITAL OUT to a correspondingdigital audio input of compatible devices such as receivers,computer soundcards or other digital processors.NOTEOnly digital sources can be streamed through COAXIAL/OPTICALDIGITAL OUT.3 +12V TRIGGER+12V TRIGGER OUTThe +12V TRIGGER OUT is used for controlling external equipmentequipped with a +12V trigger input.• Connect this +12V TRIGGER OUT to the other equipment’scorresponding +12V DC input jack using a mono cable with 3.5mmmale plug.• This output will be 12V when the M32 is ON and 0V when it is eitherOFF or in standby mode.+12V TRIGGER INWith this input triggered by a 12V DC supply, the M32 can be switchedON remotely from Standby Mode by compatible devices such asamplifiers, preamplifiers, receivers, etc. If the 12V DC supply is cut off,the M32 will return to standby mode.• Connect this +12V Trigger input to the remote device’scorresponding +12V DC output jack using a mono cable with3.5mm male plug. The controlling device must be equipped with a+12V trigger output to use this feature.4 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 allowcontrol of the M32 from a remote location.5 RS 232NAD is a certified partner of AMX and Crestron and fully supportsthese external devices. Check out the NAD website for informationabout AMX and Crestron compatibility with NAD. See your NAD audiospecialist for more information.• Connect this interface using RS-232 serial cable (not supplied) toany Windows compatible PC to allow remote control of the M32 viacompatible external controllers.• Refer to the NAD website for information about RS232 Protocoldocuments and PC interface program.6 SPEAKERS• The M32 has two sets of SPEAKER connections which are identicalin function (parallel connection). They allow for bi-wiring.• Connect M32’s Right speaker terminals marked “R +” and “R-” tothe corresponding “+” and “-“ terminals of your designated rightspeaker. Repeat the same for M32’s Left speaker terminals andcorresponding left speaker.• Double check the speaker connections before powering up theM32.BI-WIRINGMost high quality loudspeakers offer the option of Bi-wiring. Thisseparates the High Frequency (HF) crossover from the Low Frequency(LF) crossover. This offers enhanced performance by preventing LFreturned currents from affecting the HF performance. To bi-wire,remove the “links” at the loudspeaker that connect the LF and HFsections (these are provided for convenience when a single wireconnection is used).NOTES• Use 16 gauge (American Wire Gauge or AWG) or lower stranded wire.Connections to the M32 can be made with banana-type plugs.• Bare wire or pins can also be used by loosening the terminal’s plasticnut, making a clean, neat connection and re-tightening. To minimizethe danger of a short circuit, ensure that only 1/2-inch of exposed wireor pin is used to connect and no loose strands of speaker wire.IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROLSREAR PANEL© NAD M32SERVICECOMPUTERCOAX1COAX2OPT1OPT2AES/EUB INM o d u l a rD e s i g nC o n s t r u c t i o nM o d u l a rD e s i g nC o n s t r u c t i o nM o d u l a rD e s i g nC o n s t r u c t i o nLRMMLINE 1PHONO PRE-OUT/SUBWLINE 2LRLRINPUT OUTPUTRL1 2 3 4 5 6 71098 11 12 13 14 15ATTENTION!Please ensure that the M32 is powered off or unplugged from the main power source before making any connections.
