refined circuit design Only the top performing audio components were designed into your

SSP. e converter chips, passive components, op-amps, and analog power

supply are all best-in-class parts. Furthermore, the PCB (printed circuit board),

and pad material has been specically chosen to provide the best performance.

Even the routing of the traces is optimized to get the best performance out of the

circuit. Every detail is tested, every possibility exhausted, until we are content

with the results.

extensive listening tests Our experience has shown that great measurements alone do not guarantee

superb audio or video performance. For this reason, all Classé products are

laboriously ne-tuned during the development process by carefully controlled

usage tests. Every individual stage is evaluated and adjusted before the product

is released for production. As in the case with measured performance, actual

performance of every unit is veried as part of our production standard.

extraordinary longevity Because Classé has developed highly rened circuits over many years, we have

vast experience in what works well over the long term. Using this knowledge

base, along with quantitative results derived from highly accelerated life testing

Just as past Classé products have done for their owners, we are certain that
