An analysis of the color indices and absolute magnitudes MV0 of the super-soft X-ray (SSX) binary sources (including the V Sge-type stars) and classical novae in the SSX phase is presented. It can help comparing the properties and configuration of the reprocessing medium in the individual systems. The (U - B)0 and (B - V)0 colors of the novae in SSX phase are similar to those of the classical SSX binaries, but display a larger scatter for the individual objects. The range of MV0 of the individual objects with SSX emission is very large, from MV0 = 8.5 to MV0 = -4. The SSX phase of the novae V 1974 Cyg and V 382 Vel occurred at significantly brighter MV0 than of most SSX binaries while MV0 of U Sco was comparable to the SSX binaries. The implications for the reprocessing medium are given.
