Also, it is a good practice to physically disconnect any and all valuable
electronics from the AC mains during electrical storms, as a lightning
strike anywhere near your home can put a tremendous surge on the AC
mains that can easily damage any piece of electronics, no matter how well
designed and protected. The best protection in the case of severe electrical
storms is to simply remove the electronics from any connection with the
power grid.
2 Select button
The Select button is used (along with the Mode button) when configuring
the amplifier for either balanced or single-ended operation. It is also used
when configuring the turn-on delay or amplifier number for connection
with a Classé preamplifier by the DC Trigger or CAN Bus control systems.
3 Channel status LED indicators
Your amplifier has two front-panel
Channel LED indicators. There is a
separate LED to indicate the use of either the balanced (XLR) or single-
ended (RCA) input.
These indicators are also used to indicate fault conditions in your amplifier,
should any ever arise. If either of the
Channel LED indicators blinks red,
there is a problem with your amplifier.
Caution! If you see any Channel LED Indicator blinking red, please
disconnect the amplifier from the AC mains immediately and
check that all external connections are cleanly made and
secure. If the AC mains are not easily accessible, you can press
and hold the Standby button for three seconds to reset the
amplifier. If no fault is immediately obvious, please call your
authorized Classé dealer for assistance.
