in determining what type of cartridge you have, and which setting is most
appropriate.

max volume
e max volume screen allows you to establish a maximum volume setting for
your system. is scale runs from 0 to 100, with 100 indicating that you do not
want any artificial limit placed on the maximum gain your integrated amplifier
can provide.

then adjust the volume to see whether it is appropriate.
CAP-2400 e CAP-2100 can be combined with a CA-2100 to create a “new” integrated
amplifier with 400w per channel at 8 ohms. Selecting CAP-2400 activates this
configuration. You should contact your dealer if you are interested in upgrading
to a CAP-2400.
