About the Crate Acoustic CA120D:

Designed for the performing artist, Crate’s CA120D Acoustic Amplifier gives you more of what you want.

More power. More clarity. More control. And, more freedom. Imagine: microphone quality sound, without feedback. And without being “chained” to a mic stand!

More power: a 120 watt RMS power ampli- fier drives a Studio Monitor-style 12” sub- woofer for plenty of volume and low end punch.

More clarity: a specially designed tweeter provides clean crisp highs and natural mid- range blend. A tweeter level control allows you to adjust the high frequency output to suit your taste.

More control: two separate channels, each with its own gain, tone, and reverb/effects controls. An automatic feedback elimination circuit with two filter select controls lets you kill feedback without sacrificing sound quali- ty. The filters can be controlled by means of a footswitch provided with the unit.

A pair of CD Input jacks allows you to play along with a compact disc, cassette tape, or a rhythm machine.

Still more: Footswitch jacks on the rear panel provide control for the feedback circuit as well as two “tracking” DSP presets. Level- controllable XLR and 1/4” balanced line outs allow you to patch into house sound boards or recording consoles, plus an effects loop line-in/line-out setup allows connection of external effects. An external speaker jack lets you connect the amplifier to another separate speaker cabinet.

Enough already? Not for us. The CA120D features Crate’s Digital Signal Processing (DSP) for a variety of digital reverbs, effects and delays specifically designed for acoustic instruments.

The CA120D was designed, evaluated, and tweaked by music loving engineers. Each amplifier is produced by skilled assemblers using sophisticated assembly machines and the finest components. Trained craftsmen assemble and cover every cabinet by hand. The finished product is tested – and played – by skilled musicians/technicians. It is only after the amplifier has passed this meticulous design/assembly/performance/approval process that we allow it to be shipped to our customers.

The CA120D Acoustic Amplifier. Designed to be the best, so you can sound your best!

To get this amplifier to sound its best, read this owner’s guide prior to its use.

To keep this amplifier looking its best, avoid abrasive cleansers. Wipe the cabinet clean using a slightly dampened cloth. Never use brass cleaners on the hardware since they could damage their protective coatings.

Crate Acoustic amplifiers are Made With Pride in the U.S.A.
