Copland CTA407 is the latest in the CTA "saga" of the well-known Danish manufacturer. It has been preceded by many models, from the CTA401 to the CTA408, amplifiers that have always represented the ultimate in high-quality tube technology. Products ingeniously designed by Ole Moller, Copland's deus ex machina, and which have always ensured performance, musicality, and excellent market retention. A Copland CTA is a guarantee, in short, in every respect. This latest CTA407 comes after the CTA408 and loses a number because it is slightly less powerful than its predecessor, 50W per channel, due to the valves it is equipped with, which are the 6550, instead of the KT150 of the 408. But it is equipped, for the first time in Copland, with an automatic bias adjustment system, which allows it to fit any tube, from the 6550s up to the KT150s via KT88s and KT120s, thus leaving the customer free to choose. The system works particularly well, showing on a synoptic panel the "health" of each tube.
The internal construction is particularly thorough, with high-performance solid-state MM/MC phono input, an excellent volume pot, and remote control for input selection and level.
CTA407 is a pure analog amplifier, with no concession to digital, as is the Danish company's tradition. Those who decide on its purchase are buying a beautiful, high-performance, exceptionally built, extremely reliable product that can hold its own in the market very well.
