• If none of these solutions work, please consult your Classé dealer

for assistance. Never attempt to replace an internal fuse. Th

ere

are no user-serviceable parts inside your unit.

3. Only one speaker seems to be playing.

• Check the main balance control setting of the CP-500 by

pressing the Menu button, followed by the balance button (or
simply press Bal on the remote control).

• Does the problem occur with all inputs? If so, check the

interconnect cables between the preamp and the power amp.
If no fault is found there, check the speaker wires for secure
connections.

Important!

Be certain that the power amplifier is off before checking
any connections between the preamplifier and power
amplifier, or between the speakers and the power
amplifier.

• If the problem occurs only with a particular input, check the

input balance control setting of that particular input:

Menusystem setupinputinput namebalance

where input name is the particular input in question.

• If the input balance appears to be correct, check the interconnect

cables between the corresponding source component and the
CP-500.

4. The IR remote control seems not to function.

• Ensure that there are no obstacles between the IR remote and the

IR sensor (located to the right of the Mute button).

• If the batteries are weak, replace them with fresh ones.

5. There is a hum coming out of the speakers.

• If you are running single-ended interconnects, make sure they

are not running alongside any AC power cords.

• If you are running single-ended interconnects, make sure they

are not too long. Long runs of single-ended interconnects have a
natural tendency to pick up noise even if they are shielded.

• If any source components connected to your preamplifi er has a

cable TV hooked up to it, try disconnecting the cable television
line from the source. If the hum goes away, you will need an
isolation device between your cable and that particular source.
Refer to your Classé dealer for one of these inexpensive devices.
