CA-1010 Third version of the CA-1000, the CA-1010 was a CA-1000III in Japan. The bigger one (CA-2010, aka CA-2000 in Japan) had some upgraded parts and more power for an even better 'speakers control. Both units are keepers (and sleepers) - great drive & finesse, if housed in a somewhat heavy-ish design. I really regret selling mine. The
variable loudness function inaugurated on the original CA-1000
was here kept for the lower ranks (CA-810,
CA-710), only to reappear as a regular feature of
Yamaha's amps in '79/80. The power transformer star-shaped heatsinks
were shared with the contemporary B-2
V-FET power amp - another bestseller. |
