Classe Audio SSP-600 owner manual

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

•The right 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:

Touching the audio button gives you control over a wide variety of settings which affect how the audio from this source will be handled.

•offset is used to ensure that all analog sources are played back at comparable levels. There can be significant differences in output levels among analog sources (this is not a problem with digital sources); this can lead to unexpected changes in volume when switching among them. The SSP-600 provides an adjustment range of from -5 to +10 dB.

•delay establishes an overall delay (added to all channels) for the audio so as to match it more closely with a delayed video signal. This addresses the “lip sync” problems often found with modern digital televisions, whose sophisticated video processing introduces a delay in the picture you see. If you see a consistent problem in this regard, this is the place to address it. If you see a problem that seems specific to a particular disc, it is better addressed in the Home menu (home/controls/system trims/audio delay). The SSP-600 will automatically revert to this default setting when you change inputs, or if you touch the reset trims button.

•favorite processing determines what surround mode the SSP-600 will use by default when it receives either a two channel (“stereo”) or a multichannel signal from this source. For example, you may want to use Dolby Pro Logic II Music as the default mode for stereo signals from your CD player, while preferring plain two-channel reproduction for the signal from your FM tuner. Touching either the 2-channelor the multichannel buttons will bring up a list of the available surround processing modes for the chosen signal type, from which you may select your preferred default setting for this source.

•the digital button takes you to a screen where you can specify which digital connection you wish to use with this source. The SSP-600 has four coaxial digital inputs, two optical Toslink™ inputs, and one balanced digital AES/EBU input, all of which are assignable to any source button you choose.
