Help: Connecting from Classe SSP25 to CP-60?

Hi,
I don't know why there is terrible hum coming from the main speaker whenever I use surround mode for movie on the CP-60. I connect the left and right output from the SSP25 to the surround input of the CP-60. Do I make a right connection? Has anybody use this combo before and has any problem? For two channel, the CP-60 works fine (no hum, noise or anything).
Do you think the surround mode was damaged? I aks this because I made a mistake to connect the input of SSP25 to surround input of CP-60 and turned on both units for about 10 min. Please help
Thank you very much.

The hum on the CP-60 was solved. I asked Classe and they told me to check the grounding on SSP-25 and CP-60. When I checked the power cord, I found out that I use PS Audio Lab II which has its own grounding. I disconnected the grounding of the PS Audio cord, and the hum went away. Moreover, Classe said that my mistake to connect input to input doesn't damage the unit.
Happy listining!

I have all Classe products, and your connection mistake was, well, not good let's say. Possibly having two volume controls in series for the same amp is the problem.
