Level meters used on the CT-W550R are generic digital peak reading meters. Full-logic transport controls used on the CT-W550R let it respond to the slightest finger contact for fast and effortless transport function selection.

Dolby C-type used in the CT-W550R provides 20 dB of noise reduction above about 1,000 Hz, fully doubling the amount given by B-type. The Dolby HX PRO system provides precise bias control during recording to reduce distortion and improve linearity in the high-frequency range, the result is recorded sound that is highly faithful to the original. To further maintain recording accuracy, the CT-W550R incorporates a switchable multiplex filter. When you record FM stereo broadcasts, the MPX filter of the CT-W550R can be swiched on to prevent the standard 19kHz FM pilot signal from interfering with the noise reduction system.

For undisturbed listening a jack connector for a pair of stereo headphones is supplied. Connection to other audio components for plaback can be achieved by a RCA cable and recording from a source by a RCA cable.
