2 HDMI Output
The Sigma SSP HDMI output supports HDMI v1.4 featuring 2D and
standard 3D video formats at resolutions up to 1080p @ 24/50/60 fps,
Audio Return Channel (ARC), HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC), Deep
Colour, x.v.Color (xvYCC) and provides a 2-channel SPDIF downmix of
the source material.
NOTE: HDMI is an interactive format, which can occasionally
cause format errors between the source devices and the output
display. If you encounter connectivity problems, troubleshooting
techniques that are effective with ordinary digital and analog
signals, such as bypassing the SSP and connecting the source directly
to the display, are inconclusive with HDMI signals. Consult your
Classé dealer for assistance.
3 Digital Audio Input - USB
The Sigma SSP supports digital audio sources up to 24-bit/192 kHz via
USB. The rear panel USB Device connector mates with a USB Host such
as a PC or Mac.
4 Digital Audio Inputs - Coaxial
The Sigma SSP supports two digital audio inputs, with SPDIF connectors
labeled COAX1 to COAX3. These inputs accept PCM data streams up to
24-bits long and up to 192 kHz sampling frequency. We recommend using
cables that are optimized for digital audio signal transfer and that carry a
75Ω impedance rating. Your Classé dealer can help you with proper cable
selections.
5 Digital Audio Output - Coaxial
The Sigma SSP supports one digital audio coaxial output, with SPDIF
connector labeled COAX OUT. This output can pass PCM data streams
up to 24-bits long and up to 48 kHz sampling frequency.
6 Digital Audio Inputs - Optical
The Sigma SSP supports two digital audio inputs, with optical TOSlink
connectors labeled OPT1 and OPT2. These inputs accept PCM data
streams up to 24-bits long and up to 192 kHz sampling frequency. We
recommend using cables that are optimized for digital audio signal transfer.
Your Classé dealer can help you with proper cable selections.
NOTE: The bandwidth limits of TOSlink™ components are very
much strained at a 192 kHz sampling frequency. For that reason
you may want to limit signals using the TOSlink™ connections to a
maximum rate of 96 kHz.
7 Analog Audio Inputs - Single-Ended
The Sigma SSP supports 2pr of RCA type connectors for single-ended
analog sources. They are labeled R2/L2 and R3/L3. An optional internal
Phono Preamp Module may be installed, converting input R2/L2 for use
as a phono input.
