DESCRIPTION
EXEMPLARY STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER EMBEDDED WITH LATEST-GENERATION CIRCUIT TOPOLOGY
When you think of Chord Electronics, you're probably thinking of one of its class-leading digital-to-analogue converters. And justified so; over the last two decades, the company has produced a long list of absolutely exceptional digital products. Chord has been so successful with DACs that it's easy to forget that it began as an amplification brand and has produced superb products in this field. The new Chord ULTIMA 5 stereo power amplifier is now one of them. The Chord ULTIMA series of stereo power amplifiers has achieved a legendary reputation in and out of the recording studio thanks to innovative clean-power technology and unique components. The latest-generation circuit topology gives the ULTIMA 5 the ability to react quickly and provide massive amounts of power while keeping transparency and little distortion resulting in nothing short of a masterpiece.

DELIVERING 350W OF POWER WITH ADVANCED DUAL-FEED-FORWARD ERROR-CORRECTION TECHNOLOGY
The ULTIMA 5 is a step up from the most famous stereo power amplifier, the iconic SPM 1200 MK II, which is widely regarded as the ultimate Chord Electronics amplifier. The new ULTIMA 5, which incorporates the latest-generation ULTIMA circuit topology, is destined to become a future classic. The ULTIMA 5 has the best performance-to-price ratio, with 350W of power capable of driving all but the most demanding loudspeakers. The ULTIMA 5 has taken the SPM 1200 MK II's inherent qualities and pushed them to the next level. They have been able to redeem supremely fast and powerful performance, with an extraordinarily high peak output current. The speed at which dynamic peaks can be delivered, bringing astonishing dynamics, timing accuracy, and, as a result, unrivalled musicality, by implementing their advanced dual-feed-forward error-correction topology incorporating their advanced concepts in ultra-high-frequency power supplies. ULTIMA is a unique amplifier architecture with outstanding performance, and it is one of the world's most advanced amplifier technologies. It's also built to drive even the most adamantly demanding loudspeakers, offer instantaneous power with minimal distortion, and maintain signal quality.


ULTIMA 5 COMES WITH KEY FEATURES TO DELIVER AN EXCEPTIONAL LISTENING EXPERIENCE
Chord Electronics is known for delivering a terrific experience by integrating aspects that keep you interested while also giving exceptional sound quality that is unlike anything you've ever heard before. The ULTIMA 5 embeds features like - Class AB Sliding Bias, HF Switch Mode Power Supply, Proprietary Chord MOSFETs, Fully Balanced Circuitry, Convection Cooled, Balanced XLR Inputs, Balanced XLR Inputs, 12v Trigger On/Off Input, Dimmable feature lighting, and Included Top Light Ring. With a wide range of compatibility options, you can't go wrong with the ULTIMA 5. Add to that lateral-structure dual-die MOSFETs and low-distortion amplifier circuitry, the ULTIMA 5 can readily drive loudspeaker loads with clarity and precision. The ULTIMA 5 features a whopping 32 patented MOSFET power devices, necessitating the most modern and refined driving circuitry, free of any sound-degrading components.

BUILT TO LAST WITH CNC-MACHINED FASCIA MADE FROM AIRCRAFT-GRADE ALUMINIUM WITH INPUT-OUTPUT CAPABILITIES
Naturally, this wouldn't be a Chord Electronics product if it didn't include some distinctive design aspects on the outside or a well-engineered interior. The aircraft-grade aluminium fascia is carefully CNC-machined and boasts a new fascia that reflects John Franks' latest design. The ULTIMA 5 has a solid aluminium chassis and a recessed spherical polycarbonate power button that lights for standby and operation modes; a discreet, hidden front panel switch, positioned in the vertical split line, provides dimmable lighting. Chord Electronics has a long history of designing devices that are not only visually appealing but also have superior sound quality. The amplifier’s rear panel contains both balanced and unbalanced connections, 1x Stereo Pair of Gold Plated Balanced XLR Inputs, 1x Stereo Pair of Gold Plated Unbalanced RCA Inputs, and 1x 12v Trigger Input – Chord Electronics Auto Start and output terminals of 1x Pair of High Quality, High Current, Gold Plated Type Speaker Terminals. The ULTIMA 5 provides a wide range of input-output capabilities, providing unparalleled interoperability. The amplifier’s rear panels contain both balanced and unbalanced connections, high-quality loudspeaker terminals, a 12 V trigger, and a C-19-type IEC.
