Copland CSA70 integrated amplifier 2x70W
The CSA70 is the entry model in the new line of Copland CSA series Integrated amplifiers.
Created for the dedicated music lover, the Copland CSA70 is designed to provide exceptional audio performance that belies its power rating and price. The CSA70 provides four digital inputs, three analog inputs, a line-out function, as well a pre-out terminal, front-facing 6.3mm headphone output, and a 70 Watts per channel power amplifier that will surprise users who thought their speakers were power-hungry. For the vinyl enthusiast, we have included an excellent phono preamplifier.
Contrary to its bigger brothers, CSA100/CSA150 the CSA70 does not employ tubes in the line stage. The CSA70 preamplifier section is a solid stage architecture with vanishingly low distortion. The CSA70 boasts the same power amplifier technology as the CSA100/CSA150 with a feedback structure inherently faster than conventional amplifiers and wide large-signal frequency response. The amplifier is ruggedly constructed and designed to deal with the most awkward dynamic loads that the loudspeakers may present, contributing to the amplifier’s excellent transient handling capability.

-
“First of all, Copland is a company I have a great deal of time for. Since their inception in 1984, they’ve built a relatively small number of products that cover both source equipment and amplifiers. What’s notable is that the ‘hit rate’ of those products is incredibly high.”
-
“Compared to the warm and rich Consonance, the Copland sounded slightly drier and less sweet. It was taut and firm, with imposing authority and grip.”
-
“Hot on the heels of its tube hybrid integrateds comes this altogether cooler solid-state amplifier from Danish brand Copland. It packs on the style while also packing a punch..”
