Classe | Surround Sound Processor – CT-SSP

Many feel that the Classé Delta series’ unique industrial design favors a shelf or open-rack stand where the full beauty of the design can be appreciated. Also, due to their size and conventional heatsink designs, Delta series amplifiers can pose complications for custom installations.

The special need to ventilate high-powered amplifiers in custom installations prompted Classé to develop the Custom Theater (CT) series. CT amplifiers, such as the Classe Surround Sound Processor CT-SSP, employ a newly developed Intelligent Cooling Tunnel (ICTunnel™, pronounced Icy Tunnel) architecture to simplify installations and enhance both performance and reliability over the long term. The Classe Surround Sound Processor CT-SSP is designed to match this new range of amplifiers.

There is a growing consensus among home theatre enthusiasts and critics that the Classé SSP-800 is the world’s ultimate surround sound processor. The Classe Surround Sound Processor CT-SSP uses exactly the same circuitry as the Classe SSP-800 and is identical in features, performance and price. The units differ in their outward appearance and chassis design, with the CT-SSP intended especially for equipment racks.

Like the Classe SSP-800, the Classe Surround Sound Processor CT-SSP is a ten-channel preamp/processor, offering both balanced and single-ended connections for all channels. Using HDMI 1.4 the CT-SSP offers internal decoding of Dolby TrueHD and DTSHD Master Audio sources. Digital Signal Processing (DSP) is handled by two Texas Instruments processors, each capable of up to a remarkable 2800 MIPS (Million Instructions per Second). The DSPs operate in 64-bit double precision and use floating point arithmetic for all audio signal calculations to ensure the most accurate results possible. All bass management filters, level adjustments and parametric filters also benefit from the added precision.

Throughout the Classe Surround Sound Processor CT-SSP/SSP-800, there are examples of HD technology executed at the highest quality level. It is the combination of advanced technology and genuine quality that sets them apart. And while technology and quality give the SSPs their intrinsic value, we measure their true worth first on the test bench and then in the sound room.

The wealth of knowledge applied to the Classe Surround Sound Processor CT-SSP/SSP-800 design and the inspiration for its execution do not come from a textbook—they come from the passion and dedication of those who have spent their lives in the pursuit of higher performance. Classé offers the SSP-800 and CT-SSP for those who share our singular passion for performance.
