Description
If you’re an owner of a NAD HTR8 or HTR10 home theater receiver, you might be on the lookout for the perfect remote control to enhance your home entertainment experience. Look no further! We’ve scoured the web to bring you the best information about NAD remotes specifically designed for the HTR8 and HTR10 models
Overview of the HTR8
- Controls up to 8 devices.
- Learns up to 360 commands.
- Records up to 52 macros with a maximum of 64 commands each.
- Configurable punch-through.
- Key illumination with a programmable timeout.
- Upgradable.
- Contains a pre-programmed library of NAD remote codes.
The NAD HTR 8 is ready to operate the T778 right out of the box, but it is essentially eight remotes in one. Each of the 8 DEVICE SELECTOR keys at the top of the handset can call up a new “page” of remote control codes to be transmitted by the remaining keys. You can “teach” codes from any infrared remote-controlled component, regardless of brand, to any or all of these.
Typically, you would teach the codes from your DVD player to the [DVD] DEVICE SELECTOR “page,” your television’s codes to the [TV] “page,” and so on, but there is no required scheme. You can load any commands to any key on any page.
The HTR 8 comes pre-programmed with a full complement of T 778 commands on its [AMP] DEVICE SELECTOR page, as well as library commands to operate most NAD-brand DVD, BD, CD, or TUNER components on the corresponding DEVICE SELECTOR “pages.” These default commands are permanent: Even if you teach the HTR 8 new commands, the underlying library commands remain and can be easily recalled if you add an NAD component to your system later.
Getting Familiar with the HTR8
The HTR 8 is divided into two main sections.
Device Selector Key: The top section has eight DEVICE SELECTOR keys—[AMP], [DVD], [TV], and so on—which set the handset’s remaining keys to a “page” of commands to control a particular component. A DEVICE SELECTOR key determines only what component the HTR 8 will command; it does not perform any function on the component.
Function Key: All the remaining keys are function keys that can “learn” control codes from virtually any infrared remote controller, allowing you to teach the codes of your equipment, regardless of brand, to the HTR 8.
However, the HTR 8 comes pre-programmed to operate the T 778. All the function keys on the [AMP] Device Selector “page” are set to perform T 778 functions. Additionally, the HTR 8 can control various other NAD components from its [DVD], [CD], [BD], and [TUNER] pages.
It is important to note that some HTR 8 keys have different functions depending on the selected DEVICE SELECTOR “page.” The color of the DEVICE SELECTOR key-labeling matches the labeling of the function keys. For instance, the black [AMP] DEVICE SELECTOR “page” corresponds to the black keys: when the [AMP] page is active, these keys control the amplifier or receiver inputs. Similarly, the purple [DVD] DEVICE SELECTOR “page” aligns with several purple labels, and so forth.
LEARN LED
Learn LED is located between HTR 8’s ON and OFF buttons. Green, red, and amber indicate the remote’s different status.

Overview of the HTR10
The HTR 10 Remote Control is designed to meet the current and future needs of home entertainment with key features such as punch-through volume, IR learning, macro, direct source access and channel volume adjustments.The NAD HTR 10 is ready to operate compatible NAD components right out of the box.
HTR 10 Remote Control
The HTR 10 Remote Control is designed to meet the current and future needs of home entertainment with key features such as punch-through volume, IR learning, macro, direct source access and channel volume adjustments. The cursor section of the HTR 10 is designed with surrounding buttons which allow for more effective navigation. As a response to the demand for channel adjustment within an Atmos theatre design, a button to allow for volume adjustment of height channels has been added.
The HTR 10 will serve as the remote control for all T 778 receivers in late 2022 as well as be available separately to serve prior legacy receiver models.
