•The W button acts like the backspace key on a computer keyboard, moving the cursor to the left and eliminating any characters along the way.

•The X button moves the cursor to the right, adding characters

along the way. (Change each character to what you want as you go along, using the + and – buttons.)

•The + and – buttons change the current character through the available characters. They include all upper and lower case letters of the alphabet, the numbers 0-9, and a variety of punctuation. When done, your main display might look like this (note the change in what would otherwise be the bal 1 input).

When an input is renamed ‘SSP’, it becomes a unity gain input. When such an input is selected, the volume control of the CP-700 is disabled, all outputs are driven at line level and the volume indication is removed from the main menu.

This is useful in situations where the CP-700 is being used to pass through a signal coming from a component with its own volume control (e.g. Classé SSP-300 surround sound processor), or when one of its outputs is sent to a component with its own volume control (SSP-300). Care should be taken to adjust the volume control of the other component before selecting

the SSP input, as the resulting volume level may be uncomfortably loud.

•input balance adjusts an input-specific balance adjustment to compensate for the possibility that a particular source might be slightly imbalanced. This is especially common with turntables, since even the finest handmade cartridges are subject to small channel imbalance problems.

•input offset provides a way to compensate for differences in output level between various source components. Doing so can eliminate the sometimes annoying and abrupt changes in volume encountered when switching between different source components.
