Classe SSP

Folks, 

I don't know if anyone else notice the trend, lately there is a flood of Classe gear on A'gon. Especially SSP-800, don't know what the heck is going on with the brand.  

Once highly reputed and sought after, now readily available on used market.  IMO, the delta series has taken a step backwards with Chinese manufacturing and 'ICE' tunnel technology being used in M600 and CA-2300 amps.  I have done A/B comparison, and they don't sound nowhere as good as old Delta amps (no issues with top and mid range but low end is simply flat).   

I am just looking for some insight on the brand trend in the used market and ridiculous resale. 

As a long time owner of Classe, it's sad to see the current affairs of the brand.

I'm actually holding off on buying a Classé Sigma SSP until I see their solution for UHD/4K processing.  This is probably why you're seeing so many processors (with HDMI 1.4) on the used market now.  The SSP-800 just seems to have so many unnecessary connections in this day and age.  The Sigma seems so... elegant.

Cheers,
Warren
