5 February 2024, Kent, England: Chord Electronics’ all-new ULTIMA INTEGRATED stereo amplifier is now in full production at the Kent factory and is available to buy worldwide, following the amplifier’s international debut at HIGH END, Munich, in 2023 (£8,500).

Music lovers around the globe can now experience everything the new ULTIMA INTEGRATED has to offer, via the company’s international retailer network which spans an impressive 54 countries; global retailers are searchable from the Chord Electronics website: chordelectronics.co.uk/locate-dealer 

Five years since the introduction of ULTIMA, Chord Electronics’ most accomplished amplifier topology in its history, the British company has trickled the technology down from the flagship preamp and mono power amps into a full-width integrated amplifier for the first time, setting new performance standards for an integrated design.

The ULTIMA INTEGRATED is a 125-watt device designed by Chord Electronics’ founder, owner and chief engineer, John Franks. It features the latest dual-feed-forward error-correction topology, plus the company’s unmistakable industrial aesthetic.

The amplifier takes advantage of the very latest developments in advanced low-distortion power supplies, devices offering exceptionally low noise and outstanding operation. 

The British designed, engineered and manufactured, amplifier has four inputs, one fully balanced and three unbalanced, each enjoying individual buffering and selective filtering against potential ingress from radio frequency interference. Further features include an AV bypass input, plus a balanced preamp output for connection to additional power amplifiers.
