room EQ e SSP-800 Room EQ capability allows you to build very precise digital audio
lters to help correct for fi xed sonic irregularities in your room.  ese lters
should be constructed based upon audio measurements made by a well-qualifi ed
acoustical engineer.  ese powerful fi lters are made available in a completely
manual fashion to help your professional installer give you the best listening
experience possible.
As many as fi ve fi lters can be built for each speaker channel, except the Aux
channels defi ned for Bi-Amp or downmix. A Bi-Amp channel assumes the same
lters as defi ned for the Front Left and Right partner channels.
In order to defi ne the Room EQ fi lters, select Room EQ from the Setup Menu.
Choose which channel(s) you wish to adjust. Individually select and activate a
band, then tune it with the appropriate centre frequency, Q, and gain. Once the
appropriate number of bands have been activated and tuned, use the Activate
Group button to turn the fi lters on and off as a before/after check on your
progress for the channel.
You do not need to have fi lters defi ned for every channel.  e installer need
only make the adjustments to the channels necessary to correct for the room’s
interaction. We encourage you to consult with your authorized Classé dealer to
properly calibrate the SSP-800 Room EQ function.
configuration Your SSP-800 has default settings for each speaker, but these settings should
be adjusted to match your system for optimal results. You may want to consult
your authorized Classé dealer to precisely adjust the settings to match your room
environment. On your own, you can identify each speaker’s distance from your
seating position, but it’s diffi cult to make speaker level corrections by ear. Your
dealer’s technician uses an SPL meter or specialized room measurement software
to optimize levels and adjust speaker equalization, a powerful tool to help
optimize your room’s interaction with your speakers.
