Classe Audio SSP-600 8Coaxial Digital Inputs, 9Optical Digital Inputs, 10AES/EBU Digital Input

26

8Coaxial Digital Inputs

These four inputs accept digital audio signals conforming to the 75Ω

S/PDIF digital interface standard (via 75Ω cables equipped with RCA-type connectors) from a digital satellite receiver, compact disc, DVD player or other digital source component. Connect the 75Ω S/PDIF output of your source component to any of these inputs, using high quality 75Ω cable. Your Classé dealer can assist you in making an appropriate cable selection.

9Optical Digital Inputs

These connectors accept digital audio signals in the EIAJ optical (sometimes called “Toslink™”) digital interface standard from a digital satellite receiver, compact disc, DVD player or other digital source component. Connect the optical digital output of your source component to either of the EIAJ optical inputs using a high quality EIAJ optical cable. Your Classé dealer can assist you in making an appropriate cable selection.

10AES/EBU Digital Input

This input accepts digital audio in the professional 110Ω AES/EBU digital interface standard (via a cable equipped with XLR-type connectors) from a digital satellite receiver, compact disc, DVD or other digital source component. Connect the AES/EBU digital output of your source component to the AES/EBU input of the SSP-600 using a high quality 110Ω AES/EBU cable. Your Classé dealer can assist you in making an appropriate cable selection.

The pin assignments of these AES/EBU XLR-type female input connectors are:

Pin 1: Shield

Pin 2: Digital + (non-inverting)

Pin 3: Digital – (inverting)

Connector ground lug: chassis ground

These pin assignments are consistent with the standards adopted by the Audio Engineering Society and the European Broadcast Union. Refer to the operating manual of your digital source to verify that the pin assignments of its output connector corresponds to the SSP-600. If not, wire the cable so that the appropriate output pin connects to the equivalent input pin.

11Classé CAN Bus Control Ports

These RJ-45 connectors are reserved for future control and communication applications using Classé Audio’s implementation of the Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus specification.
