Welcome to the Classé family Congratulations on your purchase of a Classé product. It is the result of many years of continuous refinement, and we are sure that you will enjoy it for many years to come. We value our relationship with our customers. Please allow us to stay in touch with you by returning your warranty card now, before you pack up the shipping carton of your new product and forget all about it.
Unpacking and Placement unpacking your CD player Carefully unpack your CD player according to the supplied instructions, and remove all accessories from the carton. Important! Keep all packing materials for future transport of your Classé product. Shipping your new component in anything other than its purpose-designed packing material may result in damage that is not covered by the warranty.
register your purchase! Having found the serial number, now would be a good time to fill out the registration card. Please register your purchase so we can advise you of updates and other items of interest. It will take only a minute or so. Please complete the card now, before you forget. operating voltage The CDP-100 CD player is set at the factory (internally) for 100V, 120V, 230V, or 240V AC mains operation, as appropriate for the country in which it is to be sold.
warm up/break-in period Your new Classé CD player will deliver outstanding performance immediately. However, you should expect to hear it improve somewhat as it reaches its normal operating temperatures and its various components “break-in.” It has been our experience that the greatest changes occur within the first 300 hours, as the CD player reaches thermal equilibrium and the capacitors fully form.
Special Design Features flexible graphical The LCD touchscreen on the front panel of your new component supports an user interface extremely flexible and versatile graphical user interface (GUI) while maintaining a clean, uncluttered appearance. The CDP-100 provides a range of controls that might otherwise require dozens of buttons and knobs on the front panel. Despite this power and flexibility, it remains simple to operate in day-to-day use.
extraordinary longevity Another benefit of having worked with highly refined circuit designs so extensively over many years is that we have vast experience in what works well over the long term. By using only the highest quality parts to begin with, and then using them in an informed way as a result of both accelerated aging experiments and actual longterm experience, we are able to design and manufacture products which we are confident will stand the test of time.
Front Panel 1 Standby button & LED indicator The front panel Standby button will toggle the player between its fully operational status and a standby mode that leaves the player off, yet ready to respond to system commands via any of the supported control options (e.g. IR input, DC trigger, CAN Bus, or RS-232). The current state of the player is indicated by the LED on the Standby button on the front panel.
2 Menu button Pressing the front panel Menu button will call up the menu system, replacing the normal status display in the LCD touchscreen of the CDP-100. 3 LCD touchscreen Most of your interaction with the CDP-100 will be with the front panel LCD touchscreen (and with the CDP-100’s supplied remote control). It will usually display the information you are accustomed to seeing on the front of most CD players (track number, time, etc.), as well as the basic transport controls.
Rear Panel 1 Coaxial digital output This output provides a S/PDIF digital audio signal for use with a processor or external digital-to-analog (D/A) converter. Connect this output to a corresponding coaxial digital input on your preamplifier/processor. Doing so allows you to feed the signal in its digital form directly to your A/V preamplifier for further digital processing.
For this reason, we strongly recommend using the balanced analog interconnections between your Classé components wherever possible. The pin assignments of these XLR output connectors are: Pin 1: Signal ground Pin 2: Signal + (non-inverting) Pin 3: Signal – (inverting) Connector ground lug: chassis ground These pin assignments are consistent with the standard adopted by the Audio Engineering Society (AES14-1992).
4 IR Input and Output Your Classé player includes two 1/8th-inch mono mini-jacks in order to support the infrared (IR) remote controls that are ubiquitous today. Infrared commands exist (for example) for toggling the player between operate and standby, in addition to discrete command codes for either operate or standby. These codes may be used in “macros” for sophisticated remote control systems, facilitating the control of the player in the larger context of a complete system.
The remote Trigger In will respond to the presence of 5–12VDC, with tip polarity as shown below: Similarly, Trigger Out will create a 12VDC signal that can source up to 100mA of current. 6 Classé CAN Bus Control Ports These RJ-45 connectors are reserved for future control and communication applications using Classé Audio’s implementation of the Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus specification.
The Remote Control STANDBY LIGHT INFO DISP Your new CD player comes with a versatile remote control which can control both the CDP-100 itself and several aspects of the rest of a Classé-based system. The keys are arranged in logical groups according to their functions. 1 TIME PROG 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 HOME • Light switches the backlighting of the remote control on, for better visibility under low-light conditions. After a few moments of inactivity, the backlight switches off automatically.
3 Navigation Keys The central section of the remote control contains the navigation keys. This array of keys is similar to what you may have seen on remote controls for DVD players, and is used for navigation of the menu system of the CDP-100. • Home returns you to the normal display of track, time, and transport controls shown on the LCD screen on the front panel of the CDP-100. This provides a quick way to get back to normal operation, regardless of how deep you might be in the menu system.
• (previous) will move backward through the tracks (or the playlist, if you have created one), one track at a time. As with most CD players, the single exception to this is the first time you press the key, which will take to the beginning of the track currently playing. Pressing the key again within approximately one second will then take you to the previous track. • (next) will move forward through the tracks (or the playlist, if you have created one), one track at a time.
The Menu System Your CDP-100 includes a versatile touchscreen LCD display which supports both an attractive information display and a flexible menu system. While its use is quite intuitive, it is also quite extensive. This section of the owner’s manual outlines the many capabilities found in the menu system. operational menu The operational menu consists of several screens that can be accessed directly from the normal display one sees when playing a CD.
controls menu The controls button on the operational menu brings up a menu of commonlyused controls, including repeat mode, shuffle, time display, and program. repeat mode Pressing the repeat mode button on the controls menu displays a screen on which you may select any of the three repeat modes available: no repeat, repeat track, and repeat disc. (If you have created a program, repeat disc will repeat the program.
main menu system Pressing the Menu button to the left of the LCD touchscreen brings up a comprehensive main menu system, the top two levels of which are shown above. This menu system provides access to many installation-specific features that let you customize how the CDP-100 works within the context of your particular system.
display setup This button brings up the display setup menu. This menu is detailed below, immediately before the corresponding menu illustration. (It allows you to configure the CDP-100’s LCD screen brightness, the display timeout, and the language used in the touchscreen and menu system.) remote Fkeys This button brings up the remote Fkeys menu. This menu is detailed below, immediately after the corresponding menu illustration.
display setup menu The display setup menu, described in the following pages, allows you to define your preferences for three aspects of the CDP-100’s LCD display: the brightness of the backlighting, the timeout of the backlighting, and the language used. brightness The brightness setting of the CDP-100 has three possible values: low, medium, and high. Select the appropriate setting based on the level of ambient light typically found in your listening room while using the system.
language The language menu offers you any of six different languages supported by the CDP-100. Classé have provided our international distributors with a software tool that makes it possible for them to customize the translations to suit their local customs and terminology, in an effort to ensure that the CDP-100’s operation is as intuitive to use in every country as it is in our home country of Canada.
Troubleshooting In general, refer any service problems to your Classé dealer. Before contacting your dealer, however, check to see if the problem is listed here. If it is, try the suggested solutions. If none of these solves the problem, contact your Classé dealer. 1. My CD is skipping. • Gently clean the disc itself using a damp, soft cloth, wiping along the radius of the disc rather than around the circumference. (Cleaning discs in this manner minimizes the chance of damaging the disc.
5. The screen shows an error message and the Load button does not eject the disc (or the player shows some other anomalous behavior). • Press the Standby button so the screen dims and the blue light goes on. • Using the rear panel power switch, turn off the unit for at least thirty seconds. Then turn the power back on and press Standby to restart the unit. 6. The IR remote control seems not to function.
Care and Maintenance cleaning the cabinet To remove dust from the cabinet of your CD player, use a feather duster or a soft, lint-free cloth. To remove dirt and fingerprints, we recommend isopropyl alcohol and a soft cloth. Dampen the cloth with alcohol first and then lightly clean the surface of the CD player with the cloth. Do not use excessive amounts of alcohol that might drip off the cloth and into the CD player.
