Like the CSA100 model, CSA150 is built in a hybrid concept. The input amplification stages are implemented on a dual 6922 triode, and the output stages are implemented on high–power MOSFET field-effect transistors. The switching arsenal of the novelty, in addition to three linear unbalanced analog inputs, includes a balanced input on XLR connectors, as well as a phono corrector input capable of working with pickup heads with a movable magnet (MM).
The 6922 lamp works in the preamp section, and MOSFET transistors matched in pairs work at the output. The device outputs 100 watts per channel to an 8 ohm load, and the power increases to 180 watts when the resistance drops to 4 ohms. The DAC section is built on an ES9018 Sabre chip with support for 32-bit/384 kHz streams and DSD128 when connected to a USB-B port.
Inside, users will find a DAC and a phono corrector. The first will allow you to connect analog and digital devices, the second — MM cartridges. There is also a headphone amplifier with a 6.35mm jack.
