MDC CLASSIC UPGRADE SLOTS
The delivery format of digital content is constantly changing in pure digital
systems like the C 368. Each of these formats typically requires specialized
hardware and software, often with licensed IP and content copy protection.
To address continuous technological evolution, NAD has placed all digital
interface circuitry of the C 368 on easily upgradable modules, called
Modular Design Construction (MDC). The C 368 has provision for two slots
where MDC upgrade modules can be installed.
The following optional MDC modules can be integrated with the C 368 -
the DD HDM-1, DD USB 2.0 and the MDC BluOS modules. Remove covers
to install the optional Modular Design Construction (MDC) modules.
Consult with your NAD dealer on how to procure the DD HDM-1,
DDUSB2.0 and MDC BluOS modules and their installations to the C 368.
DD HDM-1 (DIRECT DIGITAL HDMI)
The DD HDM-1 oers three HDMI input terminals and one HDMI output
with video pass through. With DD HDM-1 installed, the C 368 can be the
heart of a “Video 2.0” system using the mandatory 2 channel linear PCM
soundtrack from Blu-ray or DVD to make a compelling high denition
theater presentation. DD HDM-1 is fully 3D video compatible without
surround sound decoding or video processing.
A HDMI OUT: Connect the HDMI Monitor
OUT to a HDTV or projector with HDMI
input.
B HDMI 1 -3: Connect to the HDMI OUT
connectors of source components such
as DVD player, BD player or HDTV satellite/
cable box.
WARNING!
Before connecting and disconnecting any HDMI cables, both the C 368
and the source must be powered OFF and unplugged from the AC
outlet. Failure to do so may cause permanent damage to equipment
connected via HDMI sockets.
DD USB 2.0
A COMPUTER: Using Type A to Type B
cable connector (not supplied), interface
computer audio to this asynchronous TypeB
USB input to directly stream 24/96 PCM
content from your PC or MAC.
B USB BACK: Connect a USB mass
storage device to this input. Typical USB
mass storage devices compatible with
C 368 include portable ash memory
devices and external hard drives (FAT32
formatted).
MDC BluOS
BluOS is a music management software developed by NAD’s sister brand,
Bluesound. Integrating MDC BluOS will add BluOS network and internet
music streaming with advanced music management to your C 368.
Refer to the “MDC DD BluOS Mounting Instructions” and” Conguring DD
BluOS” (included with your MDC BluOS package) on how to install and
