High-Performance 100-Watt Stereo Amplification

The CALA CDR incorporates a powerful stereo amplifier delivering 100 watts per channel into 4 ohms. Its high-performance power supply provides the current necessary to drive a wide selection of bookshelf and floorstanding loudspeakers.

Advanced digital signal processing provides adjustable sound characteristics, virtual surround processing and comprehensive bass management. Selectable crossover frequencies of 40Hz, 60Hz, 100Hz and 150Hz allow precise integration with an external powered subwoofer.

Integrated CD Player

A dedicated CD mechanism supports conventional audio CDs, CD-R and CD-RW discs, including CD-Text display information.

The integrated player allows owners to enjoy physical music collections alongside high-resolution streaming services without adding a separate disc player or digital transport.

High-Resolution Network Streaming and Roon Ready

The CALA CDR features a built-in network streaming client supporting PCM audio up to 32-bit/192kHz, with compatibility for FLAC, WAV, AIFF, ALAC, MP3, AAC and OGG Vorbis.

Streaming capabilities include TIDAL, Qobuz, Deezer, UPnP network playback and Roon Ready integration, subject to service availability and applicable subscriptions.

Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity provide flexible network installation, while T+A's MusicNavigator app enables convenient control from compatible iOS and Android devices.

Bluetooth, Internet Radio and Digital Sources

Integrated Bluetooth allows wireless music playback from compatible smartphones, tablets and computers.

The receiver also includes internet radio through airable, along with FM, FM-HD and DAB/DAB+ reception where supported.

Digital inputs accommodate external sources such as televisions, CD transports and network audio components.

Flexible Analog Inputs and Phono Playback

Two configurable analog inputs support additional audio components. One input can be configured for moving-magnet or high-output moving-coil phono cartridges, allowing a compatible turntable to connect without an external phono preamplifier.

A selectable Surround Pass-Through mode enables integration into a multichannel home theater system.

Dedicated preamplifier, subwoofer and headphone outputs provide additional system flexibility.

Premium Aluminum Construction and Ambient Lighting

The CALA CDR features a solid aluminum enclosure, hand-finished aluminum top cover and glossy black acrylic front panel with a dimmable graphic display.

Optional integrated ambient lighting illuminates the rear base of the component, with adjustable white, blue, green and red illumination.

Its compact dimensions make it an ideal choice for sophisticated living rooms, offices and dedicated stereo systems where performance and visual design are equally important.
