This is a surgical tool for the studio, packing Chord’s flagship ULTIMA technology into a compact frame that bridges the gap between nearfield monitors and high-end headphones. You sacrifice the footprint of a larger rack system, but you gain a level of sonic transparency that makes critical mixing decisions feel effortless.

This is a masterclass in driving demanding headphones with a sophisticated, slightly warm musicality that breathes life into any recording. It trades clinical neutrality for a rich, expansive soundstage, making it the perfect centerpiece for a minimalist desktop system that prioritizes pure listening enjoyment over raw analytical power.

This amplifier brings the lush, liquid warmth of direct-heated triodes to your headphones by stripping away the feedback loop. It demands a bit more patience with its tube-driven architecture, but the trade-off is an incredibly intimate, wide-bandwidth sound that feels more like a live performance than a digital recording.
