NOTE
If there is a stereo jack connected to +12V TRIGGER IN, the C 368 cannot be
powered ON/OFF using the front panel Standby button or SR 9’s ON/OFF
buttons. The stereo jack has to be unplugged to resume normal powering
up of the unit via front panel Standby button or SR 9’s ON/OFF buttons.
6 BRIDGE MODE
The C 368 amplier can be congured to be MONO (Bridge Mode),
more than doubling its output power. This way, the C 368 can be used
as part of a high power stereo or home-theatre system, by connecting
additional power ampliers.
• In BRIDGED MODE (switch at ON (MONO) setting), the C 368 will
produce approximately 300W into an 8 ohm loudspeaker. In this
mode, the amplier sections will react as though the speaker
impedance has been halved. Low impedance speakers (under 8
ohms) are not recommended when using Bridge Mode as these
may cause the amplier’s thermal cut-out to operate if played at
high levels.
• Set the BRIDGE MODE switch to the “ON (MONO)” position and
connect the speaker to the terminals marked “L +” and “R-” ensuring
that the “L+” is connected to the “+” terminal of your speaker and
the “R-” is connected to the speaker’s “ - ” terminal.
• Connect the source to the Left input sockets only. Do not connect
anything to the Right Input socket when Bridge Mode is selected.
7 SPEAKERS
• The C 368 has two sets of SPEAKER connections which are identical
in function (parallel connection).
• Connect C 368’s Right speaker terminals marked “R +” and “R-” to
the corresponding “+” and “-“ terminals of your designated right
speaker. Repeat the same for C 368’s Left speaker terminals and
corresponding left speaker.
• Double check the speaker connections before powering up the
C 368.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• The blue terminals must never be connected to ground (earth).
• Never connect the blue terminals together or to any common ground
device.
• Do not connect the output of this amplier to any headphone adapter,
speaker switch or any device that uses common ground for left and
right channels.
NOTES
• Use 16 gauge (American Wire Gauge or AWG) or lower stranded wire.
Connections to the C 368 can be made with banana-type plugs.
• Bare wire or pins can also be used by loosening the terminal’s plastic
nut, making a clean, neat connection and re-tightening. To minimize
the danger of a short circuit, ensure that only 1/2-inch of exposed wire
or pin is used to connect and no loose strands of speaker wire.
8 POWER
• Supplies the AC mains power to the C 368.
• When the POWER switch is set to ON position, the C 368 goes to
standby mode as shown by the amber status condition of the front
panel Power indicator.
• Press the front panel Standby button or SR 9’s remote control’s [ON]
button to switch ON the C 368 from standby mode.
• If you do not intend to use the C 368 for long periods of time (such
as when on vacation), switch o the POWER switch.
• With POWER switched o, neither the front panel Standby button
nor SR 9 remote control’s [ON] button can activate the C 368.
9 FUSE HOLDER
• Only qualied NAD service technicians can have access to this fuse
holder. Opening this fuse holder may cause damage thus voiding
the warranty of your C 368.
10 AC MAINS INPUT
• The C 368 comes supplied with two separate mains power cords.
Select the mains power cord appropriate for your region.
• Before connecting the plug to the mains power source, ensure that
it is rmly connected to the C 368’s AC Mains input socket.
• Always disconnect the mains power plug from the mains power
source before disconnecting the cable from the C 368’s AC Mains
input socket.
11 SERVICE
• Use for servicing purposes only. Not for consumer use.
12 BLUETOOTH ANTENNA TERMINAL
• Install supplied Bluetooth antenna to this Bluetooth antenna
terminal.
13 GROUND TERMINAL
• Ensure that the C 368 is plugged-in to a grounded AC wall outlet.
• If necessary, use this ground terminal to connect to ground a
phono or turntable source for PHONO input.
• If a separate earth ground is necessary, use this terminal to ground
your C 368. The C 368 can be connected to ground by connecting
a ground lead wire or similar to this terminal. After insertion, tighten
the terminal to secure the lead.
