UNPACKING AND SETUP

what’S in the box
Packed with your T 585 you will find:
• An audio/video cable connector
• The DVD 7 remote control with 2 (two) AA batteries
• This owner’s manual

Save the packaging
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your T 585 arrived.
Should you move or otherwise need to transport your T 585, 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 23 feet/7
meters, between the T 585’s front panel and your primary listening/viewing
position. This will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications.
The T 585 generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should
trouble adjacent components. It is perfectly possible to stack the T 585 on
top of other components.

QUICK START

In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your new
NAD T 585, we provide the following “Quick Start” instructions to get you
underway.

Please make all the connections to your T 585 with the unit unplugged. It is
also advisable to power-down or unplug all associated components while
making or breaking any signal or AC power connections.

plaY a cd or dvd movie
• Using the supplied audio/video cable connector, connect the T 585’s

composite VIDEO OUT jack to your TV/monitor’s corresponding input.
Connect likewise the T 585’s MIXED AUDIO OUT to your TV/monitor’s
applicable AUDIO input.

• Plug the AC mains plug into the AC outlet; the LED indicator on the

front panel will be illuminated amber indicating the T 585 is in standby
mode ready to accept commands from either the front panel POWER
button or [ON] key of DVD 7 remote control.

• To start playback of the DVD player; press the [OPEN/CLOSE] button on

the DVD 7 remote control or in the front panel.

• Insert the media and press PLAY [ ] button to start playback. You

should hear audio and see an image on the TV/monitor. (If one or the
other fails to appear, check your TV/monitor’s input settings or audio/
video allocation if applicable).

Enjoy the movie or music, but be sure to set aside time to read this
manual thoroughly to set up and configure your T 585 according to your
preference.

ABOUT THE T 585

Though the T 585 is among the most technically sophisticated DVD/
SACD/MP3 players, we worked hard to make it one of the most musically
transparent components available as well - this is what we mean by NAD’s
“Music First” design philosophy. Here are just a few examples
• The T 585 includes the High Definition Digital Interface (HDMI) with

HDCP encryption, allowing high definition audio and video signals
to be transferred between source components, processors, and TV
Displays in a pure digital format.

• Using the high quality 12-bit 148.5MHz video DAC, the T 585 ensures

highly accurate playback of delicate, low-level video signals as well as
produce vivid picture that is faithful in every detail. On the other hand,
the audiophile quality 24-bit, 192kHz audio D/A converters make the
T 585 well protected from noise caused by even minute fluctuations
in current from the power supply. This high performance audio D/A
converter ensures that all the sound you hear is as clear and noise free
as possible thereby maintaining the delivery of dynamic, smooth and
expansive audio sound.

• The T 585 has exceptional playability. It has support for DVD-Video,

DVD-R/-RW/+R/+RW, DVD-A, SACD, SVCD with or without PBC (Play
Back Control),VCD, HDCD, Audio CD, CD-R/-RW and including recorded
MP3, copyright-protected WMA and JPEG files.

• Gold-surfaced connectors are employed throughout to ensure

maximum signal integrity.
