Another happy NAD T752 owner here, but with an Ascend setup. KC Mike, the backlighting on the HTR-2 remote is what drains the batteries so fast. Since I turned it off, my last set lasted almost 7 months. To set the time for the backlight to stay on, just press and hold down at the same time the "disp" button and the # button (0 to 9) corresponding to the time in seconds you want the light to stay on. The learn light will flash twice when the remote has made the change.
