SPECIAL FEATURES

1. Ample Power and Lower Distortion

With a generous minimum rms output power of
25 Watts per channel, both channels driven, into
8~ohm speakers, and no more than 0.05%
distortion, CA-44 performance is exceptional.
And the same low distortion is preserved right
down to 250 mW, a tremendous power-distortion
range.

2. Full-Range Power Output Meters

The separate meters for L and R-hand channels
cover the whole range from 0.01 Watt to 50 Watts
in one unswitched range, a valuable feature that
lets you know how much power your speakers are
handling.

3. Special Low Distortion Low Noise Tone
Controls

A Yamaha 'first, these tone controls use a
combination of negative feedback (NFB) and capa-
citor-resistor (CR) elements, giving smooth and
accurate control of tonal quality, and a flat res-
ponse in the zero position, with extremely low
noise level (-100 dB) and correspondingly low
distortion.

4. Comprehensive Operating Controls and Func-
tions

With the CA-44 you can listen to any one
source while recording another, or while copying
one tape recording onto a second deck. Also you
can use the Rec Out Off position to disconnect the
CA-44 from your tape recorder when not actual-
ly recording.

5. Precise Continuous Volume Control and Full

Loudness Compensation

The volume control is an extremely precise,
continuous type, accurately in balance within :1
dB from maximum down to -70 dB. For listening
at low volumes, there is a Loudness Switch which
gives greatly increased naturalness of reproduction,
compensating for our ears reduced sensitivity to
high and low frequencies.
