YAMAHA CA-810 Natural Sound Stereo Amplifier – Vintage Hi-Fi
**Condition Excellent
Description:
For sale is a stunning Yamaha CA-810 Natural Sound Stereo Amplifier in excellent working condition. This is a genuinely special piece of vintage Japanese hi-fi from the late 1970s — the kind of amp that audiophiles actively hunt for.
The CA-810 was Yamaha's flagship integrated amplifier in the NS Series, built by Nippon Gakki Co. Ltd in Hamamatsu, Japan. It delivers 65W per channel into 8 ohms and features a beautifully machined aluminium faceplate, real timber side panels, and twin backlit VU meters that look as good as they sound.
Features:
- 65W x 2 (8Ω), pure Class A bias design
- Three phono inputs (including MC via Phono-3/MC)
- Two tape loops (Tape 1 & Tape 2) with record/playback switching
- Subsonic filter and high filter switches
- Bass and treble tone controls with defeat
- Mode switch (Stereo/Mono)
- Speaker A, B, or A+B outputs
- Pre Out / Main In loop for adding external processing
- Headphone output
- 240V NZ wiring — ready to plug in and use
Condition: Fully working and sounds superb. Cosmetically excellent — the timber cheeks and faceplate present very well for its age. All inputs and controls function as they should. Serial No. 125299.
This amp will outperform most modern integrated amplifiers costing several times this price. A rare opportunity to own a genuine classic in great condition.
