Owner's Manual SSP-600 Surround Processor - Classé Audio

system trims
The System Trims menu controls several parameters of the SSP-600’s operation
that may occasionally need adjustment to suit a particular recording.
• level trims are provided for L/R balance, center, surround, rear speakers,
and subwoofer. As an example, you might bump up the center channel
speaker by 2-3 dB if the dialog in a particular movie is difficult to
understand. Note: level trims for surround and rear speakers are grouped
together as “surround”.
• audio delay provides an overall (“lipsync”) delay in cases where the video
signal seems to be trailing the audio by a bit. (Note that the sensitivity
of different people to this potential synchronization problem varies
widely.) You may occasionally run into a DVD with this problem, due
to inattentive mastering of the disc itself. If you perceive this problem
most of the time, you should make the adjustment in the delay setting for
that particular input, in the System Setup menu; if it seems related to a
particular disc, make the adjustment here.
• Dolby late night mode offers intelligent moderation of the dynamic
range in Dolby Digital recordings. This is especially useful when you
want to watch a movie in the evening, but are concerned about disturbing
either the neighbors or others in the household who might prefer to be
sleeping during your action movie. This feature is specific to Dolby Digital
soundtracks, and is grayed out (not available) when listening to other
formats.
• reset trims allows you to reset everything to the defaults settings, as
determined by the settings found in the System Setup menu. (Note that
the defaults settings are also restored automatically whenever you change
sources.)
zone control
The Zone Control menu allows you to turn the remote zone on and off, to select
the source you wish to enjoy in the remote zone, and to adjust the volume of
that source.
Touching the decrease or increase buttons will adjust the volume accordingly.
(The volume knob will not adjust the volume of the remote zone.)
The on button toggles the remote zone between active (highlighted) and inactive
(not highlighted). Finally, source selection is done through the familiar source
selection screens, by touching the source button.
