Chord Electronics ULTIMA PRE 2 Stereo Preamplifier

Chord Electronics has launched its second ULTIMA stereo preamplifier following the introduction of the flagship model in 2018. The new ULTIMA PRE 2 (£12,500) directly replaces its predecessor, the CPA 5000. Modernized to complement the new Chord ULTIMA mono power amplifiers, the new ULTIMA PRE 2 uses the company’s striking new aesthetic, which benefits from a redesigned bolt-less fascia, featuring a 28mm-thick aircraft-grade aluminum front panel. Forming part of the company’s flagship Reference range, this unit features the latest proprietary ultra-high-frequency power supply and ultra-low-noise circuitry, delivering an incredible noise floor performance of below -130dB.
