Our latest stereo amplifier, the ULTIMA INTEGRATED, is now in full production and available to purchase worldwide.

A 125-watt device – the latest design from our chief designer and founder, John Franks – the ULTIMA INTEGRATED takes advantage of the very latest developments in advanced low-distortion power supplies, offering exceptionally low noise and outstanding performance.

All-new design
A ground-up design integrated amplifier with the very latest technology, circuit design and aesthetics. Pure analogue.

125 W into 8 Ω
A powerful full-width ULTIMA stereo integrated amp with 125 W into 8 Ω

Dual feed-forward error correction
Incredibly fast, dual-feed-forward error correction developed by Chord Electronics which monitors and immediately corrects signals before the output stage, resulting in astonishing signal accuracy.

4x inputs (XLR and RCA)
One fully balanced and three unbalanced inputs for wide-ranging flexibility with a number of source components

AV bypass
Input specifically for the addition of an AV processor/receiver to route signals directly to the preamp’s output, bypassing volume control

Proprietary MOSFET output transistors
Left and right channels behave identically. Close matching of our 16 proprietary MOSFET devices gives an overall better performance than ‘off the shelf’ solutions

Pre-out
Capable of adding another power amp if needed

Handmade in England ensuring the highest level of quality control, this versatile amplifier is now available to demo/purchase at ULTIMA retailers worldwide.
