What do they charge for a quote? If it is say $100 for them to provide you a quote, that is probably a good investment, then decide from there. Since they shut down the Montreal facility, not sure what local service looks like any more.
Is Classe SSP-800 Worth Repairing?
I have a Classe SSP-800 that recently started acting up. It seems to go into what I would call a boot cycle where it clicks with the standby light flashing. I reached out to Classe and they suggested a factory reset and possible firmware update might be worth trying. I did the factory reset, but this time instead of turning off the rear power switch when it went into the boot cycle, I let it run its course. The result was the unit powering up with an error message stating circuit protection enabled. I don't think a firmware update is going to help resolve the issue.
So, I can request an RMA and send the unit from Idaho to New York and pay for repairs, or I can continue using my Oppo UDP-203 as a processor. I have a 7.1 setup with no plans to change to Atmos. I run HDMI directly from the Oppo to an Epson projector. I have a new Modwright KWH 225i on order that I will be listening to 2-channel through as well as using its HT bypass feature. My question is, is the SSP-800 worth saving? I'd appreciate any thoughts on what you might do if you were in the same situation.
