INSTALLATION & OPERATION OF NAD PP 1 · Please make sure all ancillary equipment is turned off, and that the NAD PP 1 is not yet connected to its dedicated Power Supply. · Connect the leads from the turntable to the input sockets on the back of the NAD PP 1. Make sure you connect the Right channel to the Right input; the Left channel to the Left input; Normally, a Red connector denotes the Right Channel; White or Black denotes the Left channel. · Connect a suitable lead from the NAD PP 1 to the amplifier or receiver. Always use a so-called 'Line-Lever input, such as CD, AIDE, Tuner or Tape. Never connect the lead from the NAD PP 1 to an input marked Phono or turntable. Again, make sure to connect the Red plug to the Right channel, and the White plug to the Left channel of the amplifier or receiver. · If the lead from your turntable is equipped with a separate earth lead, connect this directly to a ground connection on the amplifier or receiver. Usually, the metal back panel of an amplifier provides grounding by means of a small terminal. If this is not available, you can connect the earth cable directly to the back panel, by means of placing the wire under a screw in direct contact with the metal of the back panel; for instance, the screw holding the lop cover to the back panel. Almost all receivers provide a ground terminal with the antenna input; this terminal is usually marked 'GND' or with the symbol "---|---". If an antenna is connected, you can simply add the wire to this terminal. · Connect the dedicated Plug-in Power Supply to the NAD PP 1 (marked 15V). · Insert the Plug-in Power Supply to a live mains socket; the green LED on the NAD PP 1's front panel will light up. · Installation is now complete. As the power consumption of the NAD PP-I is negligible, it can always be left switched on. It is recommended however that you disconnect the Plug-in Power supply from the mains if you are not going to use the NAD PP 1 for a prolonged period of time (such as a holiday). To play a record: · Ensure that the volume on the amplifier or receiver is set to a low level. · Select the input on the amplifier or receiver to which the NAD PP 1 is connected, use amplifier or receiver and turntable as normal, set to desired volume level. Troubleshooting: Always turn down the volume to a low level or turn off all equipment before checking. Problem · No sound Cause · (LED is not lit) Power Supply not connected to either NAD PP 1 or mains socket · (LED is lit) Wrong input on amplifier / receiver selected · Plugs from turntable and / or lead from PP 1 to amplifier / receiver sockets not property fitted · Plug in dedicated Power Supply Solution · Select input to which NAD PP 1 is connected · Check all connections (make sure to turn off all equipment beforehand) · Sound in one channel only · Plugs from turntable and / or lead from PP 1 to amplifier / receiver sockets not properly fitted · No connection from turntable to ground · Earth loop present · Interference from nearby equipment · Check all connections (make sure to turn off all equipment beforehand) · Hum or Buzz noise · If present, connect earth lead from turntable directly to amplifier / receiver · If present, disconnect turntable's earth lead from amplifier / receiver · Move NAD PP-I and cables further away from other equipment SPECIFICATIONS Input impedance (R and C) Input sensitivity (ref. 200mV output) Signal to noise (A weighted, with cartridge connected) (Unweighted, with cartridge connected) Input overload (20Hz/1kHz/20kHz) Rated distortion (THD 20Hz - 20kHz) RIAA response accuracy Dimensions excl.
