Yamaha - CA-810 Solid state integrated amplifier

Yamaha CA-810 Stereo Integrated Amplifier – Classic “Natural Sound” Hi-Fi Icon
A legendary integrated amplifier from the 1970s in Yamaha’s renowned Natural Sound line. This amplifier is known for its musical, open and natural sound reproduction, combined with very solid build quality and surprisingly broad functionality for its time.
The CA-810 is often regarded by enthusiasts as one of the most balanced vintage Yamaha amplifiers: powerful enough for modern speakers, yet with the warm, analog sound that is so characteristic of this era.

Attention: the entire amplifier has been professionally cleaned, measured, refurbished, and calibrated.
There is a very small crack in the midway range of the volume control, audible only when no music is playing.
