9Digital Audio Output - Coaxial

The SSP-800 supports one digital audio coaxial output, with SPDIF connector labeled COAX. This output can pass PCM data streams up to 24-bits long and up to 96kHz sampling frequency.

10Digital Audio Output - Optical

These digital outputs carry only digital audio data, excluding any sub- code information which some recorders might use to extract CD track information.

117.1-Channel Analog Audio Inputs

These inputs are designed for any multi-channel source with analog outputs, such as SACD or DVD players, although we highly recommend using the HDMI or digital outputs if possible. When connecting the analog audio inputs, make sure to attach each cable from the source component output to the appropriate SSP-800 input.

Starting from the source, connect the Front Left output to the FL (Front Left) input of the SSP-800, then the source centre output to the CEN (centre) input of the SSP-800, and so on.

These analog audio input signals are passed through the SSP-800 and to the speakers with no processing, to preserve the purity of the original signal. When these inputs are selected, only volume control processing is enabled.

122-Channel Balanced Analog Audio Inputs

The SSP-800 was designed with a 2-channel balanced analog audio input, using a pair of balanced XLR connectors labeled R1 and L1. Use this input with any 2-channel analog source component with balanced outputs.

NOTE: This input conforms to the AES (Audio Engineering

Society) “pin 2 = hot” convention. The pin assignments of these

XLR-type female output connectors are:

Pin 1: Signal ground

Pin 2: Signal + (non-inverting)

Pin 3: Signal – (inverting)

Connector ground lug: chassis ground

Verify that the source components are compliant with this convention (Classé components are compliant). If not compliant, contact your Classé dealer for assistance.

132-Channel Single-Ended Analog Audio Inputs

The SSP-800 was designed with a pair of 2-channel single-ended analog audio inputs using the RCA connectors, labeled L2/R2 and L3/R3. Use these inputs with any 2-channel single-ended analog source component.

NOTE: The Balanced and Single Ended 2-channel analog audio inputs can be set for either bypass mode (no DSP processing) or converted to digital format to allow bass management, surround mode processing, and/or equalization.
