Owner`s manual

Make sure you keep a detailed record of the rear panel

connectors that you used while connecting the source

components!

You’llneedtoknowwhatconnector(s)eachsourceisattachedtowhenyouenter

the setup menus. An Installation Worksheet is included at the end of this manual

to assist you.

NOTE: In the CP-800 default settings, fteen rear panel inputs

are associated with corresponding source selections within the

Source Setup menu. Since most users will have fewer sources

connected, the Source Selection page(s) can be simplied by

unchecking the Enable Source box for each unused input. Doing so

removes the corresponding Source button from the Source Selection

page. See the Menu System section for details.

Step 4 Connect the power amplifier(s) to the CP-800 rear panel.

Important!

Verify that the power amplifier(s) is plugged in but powered

OFF before connecting to the CP-800!

We recommend using high quality cables with XLR connectors.

NOTE: ese pin assignments are consistent with the standards

adopted by the Audio Engineering Society. Refer to the operating

manuals of your balanced-input power ampliers to verify that the

pin assignments of their input connectors correspond to the CP-

800. If you are using Classé ampliers, this note does not apply.

If needed, the pin assignments of the XLR-type male output

connectors are:

Pin 1: Signal ground

Pin 2: Signal + (non-inverting)

Pin 3: Signal – (inverting)

Connector ground lug: chassis ground

Connect the Main L&R Outputs, either RCA or XLR, from the rear panel of

the CP-800 to the corresponding inputs on your amplier(s).

to the input of the designated amplier or powered subwoofer.

NOTE: Make sure connections from the subwoofer output go only to an

amplier connected to a subwoofer or a powered subwoofer, as low frequency

signals can damage a small speaker not designed for high output bass

reproduction.
