Nordic by Nature

摘要

Copland products are easy to love. Especially if you've had it up to your eyebrows with poorly-made components, absurd ergonomics and a sense that your pocket has been picked. But Copland rests in an arena of its own, for the products send out very mixed signals. Metaphorically, that is: sonically, they've never been less than delightful. What's so odd about Copland is its profile. Are these products, by virtue of performance and price, mid-range between starter kit and crazy high-end? Or are they entry-level high-end because they sound so good and exceed the £1500 barrier? Are they aimed at non-audiophiles because they eschew tweaky codswallop? Or are they strictly for audiophiles because the bulk of them contain valves?
