T+A CALA SR – Compact streaming hi-fi system with high-end sound and exceptional design

The T+A CALA SR combines first-class hi-fi technology, versatile streaming functions, and exceptional design in a remarkably compact housing. Developed for discerning music lovers, this high-quality streaming hi-fi system blends powerful amplifier technology with state-of-the-art digital music playback and elegant design. This makes the CALA SR far more than a classic audio device: it is a stylish design object that integrates harmoniously into sophisticated living spaces.

Exceptional design with captivating ambient lighting

The T+A CALA SR embodies the characteristic design philosophy of the German hi-fi specialist T+A: timeless reduction. Its high-quality, brushed aluminum body impresses with gently curved contours and precise workmanship. Thanks to its rounded shape, the CALA SR requires no additional feet, giving it its particularly clean and harmonious silhouette.

A striking visual highlight is the frameless acrylic front with its generously sized integrated display. The elegant appearance is complemented by individually adjustable ambient lighting. The integrated light strip illuminates the base in white, blue, green, or red, creating a striking accent in the living space.

In addition to its high-quality feel and materials, the CALA SR also impresses with its exceptional lighting design. It combines sophisticated audio technology with modern interior design, becoming a stylish focal point in any living space.

Versatile music streaming and limitless source variety

The T+A CALA SR also boasts exceptional technical versatility. Its modern streaming client provides access to numerous high-resolution music services and a wide range of internet radio offerings. Services such as Tidal, Deezer, and Qobuz are supported. Furthermore, the system is Roon Ready, allowing for seamless integration into compatible music systems.

Various network and connection options are available for playing back your own music library. The CALA SR accesses digital music files on your home network via Wi-Fi or LAN. Additionally, the USB port allows direct playback of compatible music files from external storage devices.

Traditional audio sources are also well catered for: Analog inputs, digital S/PDIF connections, and a configurable phono input offer versatile connectivity options. This even allows for the integration of a turntable into the compact hi-fi system. Bluetooth further expands the possibilities with particularly straightforward wireless music playback.

Powerful amplifier for impressive sound

Despite its compact dimensions, the CALA SR features an integrated amplifier with a nominal output of 55 watts per channel at 4 ohms. This provides a powerful foundation for operating high-quality loudspeakers and eliminates the need for additional amplifier components.

Digital signal processing allows for precise adjustment of the sound characteristics to personal preferences and the specific listening environment. Flexible bass management with various crossover frequencies ensures optimal matching of the connected speakers. Additionally, a virtual surround function is available, which spatially expands the soundstage.

For flexible system integration, the CALA SR features pre-out and subwoofer outputs, as well as a headphone jack and a digital audio output. This allows the system to be adapted to individual requirements at any time.

Convenient operation with the T+A MusicNavigator app

Operating the T+A CALA SR is exceptionally user-friendly. The T+A MusicNavigator app for iOS and Android allows you to select music sources, manage streaming services, and conveniently control numerous system functions. A system remote control is also included.

The CALA SR also proves versatile when it comes to radio reception. In addition to classic FM radio and DAB+, a comprehensive internet radio service with more than 11,000 radio stations worldwide is available. Features such as RDS, station name, program type, and radiotext provide added ease of use.

Compact dimensions, comprehensive hi-fi features

With a width of just 30 cm, a height of 9.5 cm, and a depth of 21 cm, the T+A CALA SR fits even where conventional hi-fi components would be too large. Its ingenious all-in-one design combines a streaming client, radio receiver, and powerful amplifier in a single, high-quality enclosure.

The combination of first-class workmanship, versatile connectivity, modern streaming technology and individually adjustable ambient lighting makes the CALA SR an exceptional solution for discerning music lovers.
