the volume up/down keys of the remote control. Balance is adjusted in 0.5 dB
increments by alternately boosting and cutting 0.5 dB from each channel. In this
way, the overall level stays roughly the same as the balance shifts. e Balance
control works by making adjustments with the master volume control, so no
additional circuitry enters the signal path when balance adjustments are made.
e Balance control oers a range of +/- 10.0 dB and moving the control to
either extreme turns o the opposite channel (used mostly for troubleshooting).
NOTE: Your L & R speakers may not produce the exact same
output for a given input, or their location in the room or relative
to your listening position may contribute to a perceived imbalance
of up to a few dB. To compensate for this, play a simple vocal
recording and put the CP-800 in Mono (press Menu, then Mono).
Open the Balance control page and using the remote, adjust the
balance until the sound image is perfectly centered. If you close
your eyes and do this a few times, you will nd that one number,
like Right 1.5 dB, may appear consistently. If so, you know that is
the adjustment your system requires. Leave the setting there, return
to normal stereo operation and then forget all about the balance
control.
Configurations You may create up to six dierent output congurations to accommodate
preferences like with or without subwoofer(s), or with subwoofer(s) having
dierent crossover settings. While these congurations may be associated with
specic sources, they may also be called from the Main Menu page or the remote
control. Pressing the Congurations button in the Main Menu or choosing
Cong Select on the remote opens the Congurations page. Choose the
conguration you wish to employ.

Mono Pressing the Mono button combines L & R channels, resulting in monaural
output on all channels (including Auxiliary and subwoofer channels). When in
Mono, the Mono button is shaded. Press again to deselect and return to normal
stereo operation. When in Mono, the word Mono appears in a box on the Home
page.
Status e Status screen provides several items of information on the currently selected
source and conguration as well as access to information on the rmware used
in and the internal settings and sensors of the CP-800. While on this page,
pressing the more button will access the CAN-Bus features for connected Classé
components.
