2 SAFETY INFORMATION 1.To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the SSP-75 to water or moisture. 2.Do not place the SSP-75 close to any heat- producing device such as a radiator, stove, etc.. 3.Connect the SSP-75 only to an AC source of the proper voltage. The shipping container and the rear panel serial number tag will stipulate the proper voltage. Use of any other voltage willalmost certainly damage the unit and will void the warranty. 4.Do not open the SSP-75 for any reason, as there are no user serviceable parts inside. An open unit, particularly if it is still connected to an AC source, presents a potentially lethal shock hazard. Refer all questions to authorized service personnel only. 5.If the SSP-75 will be out of use for an extend period of time (vacation, etc.), unplug the power cord from the AC source to prevent any chance of problems from a voltage surge.

We take great pride in offering components that combine exceptional sonic performance and long- term reliability. To do that, we have invested in extraordinary design and manufacturing facilities. We trust that you will enjoy your purchase for many years to come. CLASSÉ DESIGN PHILOSOPHY All of our components benefit from the same rigorous design goal: All Classé products must reproduce music with the harmonic and spatial integrity typical of fine instruments heard in a live, unamplified performance. Single Circuit Design To this end, we make extensive use of carefully optimized versions of the same basic circuit precisely matched to specific power requirements. This means that all Classé line level components and power amplifiers benefit from years of refinement. However, our efforts do not stop here. Listening: The Critical Design Element Once we determine general circuit values for a particular application, we listen carefully while exchanging and mixing different parts (transistors, capacitors, wiring, PC boards, etc.) and adjusting specific operating voltages within proper engineering ranges. Extended Real-World Lifespan Every Classé component, even the most affordable, benefits from our painstaking approach to design parameters. The result is an optimum balance between the often-conflicting demands of exceptional performance and long-term reliability. Our most expensive components gain from even tighter tolerance parts and highly segmented and exceptionally robust power supplies with large reserve-current capabilities. Our Pride in Manufacturing, Your Pride in Ownership. We build all of our components to the highest possible standards. From multi-layer glass-epoxy circuit boards to the massive faceplates, every Classé product is a tribute to both the art and science of sound reproduction. We hope that you derive as much pleasure and satisfaction in using your Classé as we did in producing it. ABOUT THIS MANUAL The Classé SSP-75 is a very sophisticated preamplifier/processor. Even so, although complete understanding of the SSP-75s many capabilities may take some study, its elegant design and intuitive interface invites daily use by even the technically challenged. We strongly urge you to read this Manual carefully before you connect and use the SSP-75 in your home theater system. Youll find answers to almost all of your questions in these pages. That knowledge will greatly reduce your efforts as you configure your system to take best advantage of the SSP-75s enormous potential. Weve organized the Manual for both the experienced installer and the novice user. The Installation Overview (Section 2) is written for those with technical experience. It provides an inclusive picture of the SSP-75s capabilities and suggests several effective system configuration strategies. The following Sections supply step-by-step instructions to help the less technical user configure and use the SSP-75 effectively. As in all such efforts, a little patience will go a long way to reducing the chances for frustration. Remember, it took many talented people a long time to design the SSP-75 and you cant be expected to learn everything about it in one evening! So relax. And enjoy. Youre about to enter a wonderful world of high-performance surround sound.
