Special Design Features

The LCD touchscreen on the front panel of your new component supports an extremely flexible and versatile graphical user interface (GUI) while maintaining a clean, uncluttered appearance. The touchscreen accesses a range of controls that might otherwise require dozens of buttons and knobs on the front panel. Despite this power and flexibility, it remains simple to operate in day-to-day use.

Classé products are designed to deliver consistent, state-of-the-art performance over many years of use. With this in mind, our engineers have developed electronic circuitry that offers both exceptional performance and stability in equal measure.

Starting with innovative circuit designs, we engineer them to optimum levels by applying meticulous attention to detail at all phases of the design and component selection process. By measuring, listening and viewing in an interactive manner we conclude whether our design goals have been met.

Finally, our designs are subjected to extensive testing to ensure longevity, reliability, and stability.

Throughout the development phase, perhaps the most important testing of all is listening and viewing our work. Subjective listening is highly valued at Classé, as striking a balance between products that both measure exceptionally and sound fabulous is our aim. We take the same approach with video, wherein sophisticated video measuring equipment is used in conjunction with subjective viewing.

Another benefit of having worked with highly refined circuit designs so extensively over many years is that we have vast experience in what works well over the long term.

By using only the highest quality parts to begin with, and then using them in an informed way as a result of both accelerated aging experiments and actual long- term experience, we are able to design and manufacture products which we are confident will stand the test of time.

We are confident that your new Classé disc player will give you many years of trouble-free reliability and musical enjoyment, just as previous Classé products have given their owners.
