Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

Re: Best User Interface? Classe' Delta Series (IMHO)

If one takes a gander at the pre-amp interface:

:the blue touch-screen offers a bery logical and flexible interface - with cascaded sub-menus and, due to the micro-processor controller, offers the ability to customise the legends on each menu item as well as program the four "Function Buttons" on the supplied remote.

Also available are the following functions:

- Individual level/balance adjustment per input
- Maximum system volume setting level (caps maximum level selectable)
- Deactivation of menu options for unused inputs
- Screen legend language selection
- Display brightness & timeout parameter adjustment
- Volume control "behaviour" customisation (volume change vs rotation)
- Menu selection of Phono gain (if phono stage installed)
- Programming of the two 12v trigger output logic (on/off/toggle)
- Menu selection of "SSP" for Unity-Gain in HT application
- Teach IR option for programming of universal remote controls

In addition, a "Sensor Status" display provides real-time read-outs for:

- Internal operating temperature
- Mains line voltage
- Earth/ground present

Best of all, the screen and menu approach seems much more acceptable to the fairer sex.

Similarly, on their disk players, the same technology is used, but - understandably - using different logic due to the functional differences:

All in all, I've found this User Interface to offer the ideal combination of strengths:

- comprehensive control
- flexibility
- simplicity
- configurability
- ergonomics

Well done, Classe' !!!
