This will restore the Video Format Resolution “Auto”. - Bob Moran Fri, 16 Apr 2010 02:26:07 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-3062 Hannes: Here is the procedure to reset the receiver . . . "To do a factory reset for North American versions, first go to FM input. Then press and hold the Listening Mode button on the front panel for several seconds. This will wipe out all your settings (bass management, FM presets, input settings, etc.)." I hope this will work for you.

It has an outstanding performance when I play a bluray music disk in TrueHD, but when playing an ordinary CD I think it really sucks, it sounds nearly like an old kitchen radio. Since I'm not a big movie freak I must say I´m quite disappointed with this setup. I use it together with B&W M-1/Pv-1 system. Sorry guys I cannot recommend it. - Martin N Mon, 25 Jan 2010 02:59:12 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2531 Bear in mind that many "100 watt" surround sound receivers can't produce half their power rating with all channels driven. Just check the bench test results in Secrets or other competent mnagazines. The T747's rating is honest, but not very different from typical, competing receivers. This is one thing that set NAD apart from some of the other manufacturers. This receiver produced a more than satisfactory sound at least 99% of the time. I thought that it had a very nice sound and would recommend it to people with typical sized rooms. Like Chris L., I encourage you to go audition it! - Jim Clements Wed, 23 Dec 2009 21:41:04 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2523 My NAD 325BEE integrated amp is rated at 40 watts per channel and it drives my Martin logans fine effortlessly and the volume knob is only at at the 9 o'clock position. Don't worry about if a NAD receiver is able to drive your 4 ohm speakers because it is more than adequate. I have used Denon, Onkyo, Pioneer Elite, Marantz but i always end up going back to NAD because of it's sound. Sometimes it's not always about the features but it's the quality of sound. Go and audition it! - Chris L Wed, 23 Dec 2009 02:48:46 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2478 For what I see its a good unit but still worried that the 60 watt output will run out of steam very quickly. Just how good is this receiver anyways when compared to others like the 767, 775 and 785? What are your opinions? - Garry Mitchell Thu, 10 Dec 2009 12:05:45 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2425 I am in the market for a HT receiver and happened upon your site. I am considering either the NAD T747 or the T765. My priority would be movies (blu-ray) 70% of the time and two channel music the remainder. The listening environment is 10' x 23' x 8'. My question is based on your knowledge, is the extra money worth the "upgrade"? - Canadian Audio Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:33:01 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2372 The NAD T747 manual recommends speakers that are 8 ohm minimum, despite the fact that it provides a dynamic power output rating for both 8 ohms and 4 ohms. Low-impedance speakers may demand more current from the receiver than it is designed to produce. That being said, the PSB speakers I auditioned with this receiver are rated at 4 ohms nominal. I didn't notice any issues driving those speakers that could be attributed to their impedance rating. So I suggest that you contact NAD's customer support and pose your question to them. They would be able to certify if the Wharfdale speakers would be a suitable match for the T747 reciver. - Jim Clements Thu, 12 Nov 2009 04:21:54 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2367 I'm using a set of Wharfedale diamond that come with 6 Ohms impedance. Could anyone please suggest if it can connect to this NAD T 747? - Novice Wed, 11 Nov 2009 11:29:02 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2195 Please help?! I'm trying to choose between the NAD T 474 and the Sony STRDA54000ES. All the reviews for both are great! - Dave L Mon, 21 Sep 2009 02:37:21 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2163 Gerald, I did compare the NAD T747 receiver to my reference Onkyo receiver, the TX-SR805. The Onkyo can, like the NAD T747, decode all the latest audio codecs. I plan to post a thorough comparison of these two receivers on the CAVE next week. In short, I will be recommending the NAD receiver over the Onkyo due to its more refined audio performance. (The Onkyo can sound a little harsh in the upper registers and a little plump in the bass when compared to the NAD T747.) I do want to ask what Blu-Ray player you have? If you have one with multi-channel analog outputs, then you could have the player decode the newer formats and feed your receiver an analog signal through the Yamaha's 7.1-channel analog inputs. - Jim Clements Tue, 08 Sep 2009 02:34:16 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/668-receiver-nad-t-747-av-surround-sound-receiver.html#comment-2154 hi,I am looking at a receiver upgrade,one that has the new hd audio decoders my system consists of axiom m80 ,vp150 centre,and q8 surounds, receiver yamaha 659 with nad c272 driving the fronts.I'm looking at new nad t747 at 1499 cad.do you think that there well be a big difference in audio performance, or maybe just upgrade to maybe a yamaha or denon in maybe 600 to 700 price range with the hd decoders,I listen to a lot of music in 2 channel and am wondering if the pre-amp section of a nad reciver be better than my yamaha 659.I paid 700cad about 2 years ago. regards, - Gerald greene Sat, 05 Sep 2009 23:43:20 +0100
