Digital Audio Blog: Classe CP-800 preamp/processor

This looks pretty impressive. Asynchronous USB, iPhone connectivity, lots of 192/24 optical and coax inputs. Subwoofer outputs, crossover capabilities, etc.

Thoughts?

It is - I sell them. I just installed one with a pair of Rockport Mira 2's - took out a little bit of room bump at around 70hz, augmented the very bottom at around 35hz, and used the tilt control to tame some room brightness and echo. Great results - no "standard" pre amp could have done what this allowed me to do.
The crossover fuction are aewsome as well.

That looks pretty damn good to me. Will see if I can get a home demo.
