Strike a Chord

Chord Electronics has announced that its new British-made Ultima integrated stereo amplifier is now in full production, after making its debut High End Munich last year.

Five years since the introduction of its cutting edge Ultima topology, the tech has been distilled down from the flagship pre and mono power amps into a full-width integrated amp for the first time.
