Bozak CMA-2-80 (c. 1976–1982)
Documentation on the Bozak CMA-2-80 is thin. The archive record is two period sightings and little else. It appears to have been a professional power amplifier used in studio console systems. The first sighting is a 1976 classified listing in a recording-oriented trade magazine. The CMA-2-80 was offered for sale as part of a studio console package, alongside a Philips EL6911 delay unit and four Bozak CM109-23-AW modules, with mic, line, tape, and disc modules listed around it.
A later buyer's-guide entry in HI-Fi-Stereo-Buyers (1982, p.56) records what appears to be the same amplifier. The specs are 70 W per channel into 8 ohms, 0.25% THD, IM distortion below 0.1% at rated output, 110 dB unweighted signal-to-noise, and a 19-inch-wide black anodized aluminum chassis. The surviving copy of that listing is fragmentary, and the model name isn't visible in the extracted text. The entry is associated with the CMA-2-80 in the archive's records, so treat those figures as probable rather than confirmed.
If you have an original manual, an advertisement, or the amplifier itself, the page could use something better than these two fragments.
