5.2 SPEAKER SETUP:
You may wish to set up the speakers first. It will make it easier to properly set the speaker output levels if you
have configured the SSP-30 MKII so it “knows” what speakers you have in the system as well as the speaker sizes. You
should also consult the manual for the speakers and for the subwoofer and decide what crossover frequency you
should set for the subwoofer. Usually the crossover frequency will be around 80 Hz, but if your speakers are small and
have no real Bass capability you may wish to get more information from the woofer by setting the crossover at 100 Hz
or 120. You may also wish to check with your dealer about this section of the setup sequence.
These displays show that you have accessed the Speaker setup sub-menu and
highlighted the Level setup. You can scan through the available choices by
pressing repeatedly the \/ and /\ buttons on the remote. When the speaker you
wish to adjust is highlighted press the < or > key to decrease or increase the
size or presence. To Exit scroll down to Exit and press the ENTER k

5.2.1 Level setup: Although this manual is following the setup sub-menus in the order they appear on the Main
menu screen, it will usually be necessary to first go to the Size setup section (Section 5.2.3), to configure the speakers
in your particular system. You must tell the SSP-30 MKII how many speakers you have, what their size is and where they
are in relation to the listener. We recommend you first use the “Speaker setup” selection to set those parameters, and
then use the “Distance setup” (Section 5.2.2), to set the correct distances before moving on to the “Level setup” Menu
selection. You will want to set the crossover point for the subwoofer you are using (if you are using one).
Level setup is most easily accomplished with the aid of an SPL meter. An inexpensive but relatively accurate meter is
available at most Radio Shack stores, or through their catalog.
Classé recommends all speakers be set at equal levels, at a sound pressure level of 75dB. This level will usually enable
you to watch movies with the Volume level set at 0dB, depending of course upon the show, how loud you like to listen
and, of course, your neighbors.
These displays show that you have accessed the Level setup sub-menu and highlighted
the Left Front speaker level control. You can scan through the available choices by
pressing repeatedly the \/ and /\ buttons on the remote. When the speaker you wish to
adjust is highlighted press the < or > key to decrease or increase the level. When you
are satisfied with the level highlight Exit and press the ENTER key.

Highlighting a speaker selection does not cause that speaker to play pink noise. To play pink noise at the relative level
displayed on the right side of the screen or panel, you must first turn on the Test signal. Press the CAL key on the
remote control to start the signal. The SSP-30 MKII will immediately begin playing pink noise through one speaker after
another. Next, use the /\ or \/ keys to scroll to each speaker you wish to test/adjust. Press either the < or > key to
begin playing pink noise through the selected speaker. Continue to press the < and > key to adjust the volume of that
speaker until the
