A fully featured Technics system, all packed into a stylish box - the Technics SC-C70EB is the perfect blend of sound and style.
Packed with sound enhancements
Full of Technics knowhow, the SC-C70EB delivers a stunning sound from a compact box. Helping to reduce distortion to a minimum is JENO (Jitter Elimination and Noise-shaping Optimization). The Technics system reduces jitter at both ends of the frequency range, giving you crystal-clear clarity. It also features LAPC (Load Adaptive Phase Calibration). This uses corrective processing to get the perfect alignment with the built-in speakers.
All-in-one style and convenience
Featuring built-in amp, speakers and multiple sources, the SC-C70EB is a one stop shop solution. Whether you want to stream music from your mobile or tablet using Bluetooth or AirPlay, stream Hi-Res music from your computer or just play CDs, this flexible Technics has it covered. Optical and USB connections also make it possible to easily add other sources, too.
Advanced networking including Apple AirPlay and Bluetooth
Built-in Apple AirPlay means that you can stream music from your Apple iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad or other compatible Apple device, wirelessly. If you use another brand of smartphone or tablet then you've also got Bluetooth, for easy music streaming from your portable device.
High Resolution compatible USB
For the highest quality sound use the asynchronous USB at the rear, connect your PC or Mac and enjoy file streaming right up to 192/32-bit PCM and DSD 5.6MHz. Use this in conjunction with hi-res music services, such as Technics Tracks and you’ll enjoy music realism and definition that’s a cut well above the rest.
Technics Music App
Technics haven’t just been working on their hardware, they’ve been developing some impressive software, too. The Technics Music App not only lets you select a music source and create playlists but also facilitates streaming music from other devices on your system, linked via DLNA. In short, it gives you effortless control of all your streaming needs. Available free for iOS or Android, the Technics Music App gives you complete control.
Top quality CD player
Taking centre stage, a Perspex plate glides to one side to reveal a high quality CD player. Using their decades of experience with CD players, Technics have produced a super-smooth sounding and highly detailed player. Although the Technics system is a fully equipped streamer it certainly hasn’t forgotten about your silver discs; playing them to their best ability.
Unique Technics style
This premium music system is just as serious about style as it is sound. A heavily ribbed front panel contrasts with the brushed aluminium top plate to give a unique and striking appearance. The heavy Perspex CD lid glides open to add theatre to playing your music.
Don’t compromise on sound or style, choose the flexible Technics SC-C70EB for all your compact music system needs.

Highly recommended as a one piece
Bought this to replace a 30 year old multi piece hi fi unit that had seen better days. Wanted good sound without the hassle of speakers and wires as well as the ability to move it from room to room. Did lots of research, neede the ability to play cds (still have lots) play from usb as well as radio.
Only downside is the small display which requires you to sit close to when setting up (do read the instructions or you will get frustrated). Perhaps youngsters can set it up easily but us oldies do strugle with the internet / router etc codes for this and that. If you read the instructions is does set up automatically and connect to the router!!
Especially good value now that the mark2 version has come out.

Excellent sound, feature rich and well built
I bought the OTTAVA as a study/bedroom system a couple of weeks ago. I have seen mixed reviews and did wonder if I was making the right decision. However, I need not have worried. It is a very solid well built piece of kit. Full of features, seemingly bomb proof operation with excellent wireless and bluetooth connectivity and most importantly great sound. (Solid bass expressive mid range and clear but not harsh highs, plenty of volume with no strain, good sound staging for this type of system. Definitely a premium product in my book. Given that my main system cost over £15k I am genuinely surprised at how listenable I find the OTTAVA. One thing, make sure you download the full instructions and read them carefully to ensure that you get the best out of the system.

Perfect for my needs
Needed a replacement for CD player that packed up (didn't want to throw them all away) and wanted my first music streamer. Also wanted it to be a smart looking unit as I planned to put it in my lounge. I was considering the Ottava but wasn't planning to spend the £650+ most places had it priced at, so when the offer from Richer Sounds came through at £499 I was made up and ordered straightaway. I'm not a great audiophile but know what I like and this to me sounds great. It fills a reasonably large room easily and is much better as background music for the neighbouring dining room than a smart speaker. Got brownie points from 'She-who-must-be-obeyed' for buying it, so it must be good!

Great sound - Easy Set-Up
I bought this a couple of weeks ago and have not regretted my choice. Build quality is superb as is the sound. Set-up was easy and straightforward.

Classy looking and packed with sound
Now into my second week of living with the OTTAVA Forte and it’s all good news.Purchased to replace an ageing Bose system which my wife was not keen on doing however in just one week we are both delighted with the improvement in the sound quality on all the sources we use.The bass sound could be a little deeper for sure but the sound is smooth like all Technics and the clarity is superb hearing so much more detail which is important as it used in our kitchen on a daily basis.The unit looks great and ties in with our decor which is an added bonus,the remote control is old school but that’s not a bad thing considering where we use.We are very pleased with the Technics and at under £500 represents excellent value,if it stays that price might by another for our bedroom.

Quality build and amazing sound
I have been looking at this unit for the last year, wanted as a replacement for my old Technics amp SU-A900mkII. I purchased the Technics SC-C50 speaker and was impressed by it sound so knew this would be the perfect piece of kit to replace my old system. As usual Richersounds had an offer that was too good to miss. Very happy customer once again.

Amazing, but not without limits
So, I bought, as did many before me, to replace a separates system. The lack of clutter is great, and I’ve even gotten a Bluetooth adaptor for my turntable so it plays through it. And it’s a great sound, especially when you consider the size. BUT, it doesn’t have the bass that my separates had. Pretty sure my neighbours are relieved but I like my blues and ska, and that stuff only sounds good when you can hear the running bass line.
However, once you get over that small issue (and compared to all its other qualities, it really is quite small) you will learn to really enjoy it. Recommended, honestly, but perhaps turn the bass up to 8 for old times sake.
