Chord Electronics is set to unveil its latest amplifier concept, the Suzi, at HIGH END 2024. This cutting-edge design, created by Chord Electronics' founder and owner, John Franks, features a brand new preamp and an innovative ULTIMA-tech modular power amplifier. The Suzi can be utilized in various configurations, either as a traditional pre/power amplifier or as separate components when paired with the Hugo 2 DAC or the Hugo 2/2go streamer/player.
The Suzi system consists of the Suzi Pre preamplifier and the Suzi power amplifier, which seamlessly integrates with the Hugo 2 or Hugo 2 and 2go. With its versatility, the Suzi concept caters to three primary use case scenarios: functioning as an analog pre/power amplifier (Suzi Pre with a Suzi), a DAC/amplifier (Suzi with a Hugo 2), or a streaming amplifier (Suzi with a Hugo 2 and 2go). Stay tuned for its official launch later this autumn.
The Suzi system has been conceptualised to offer consumers myriad options while accommodating existing Hugo 2 and Hugo 2/2go owners by offering a purpose-designed ULTIMA-technology amplifier solution with similar space-saving chassis dimensions.
In its most accomplished configuration of a Suzi, Hugo 2 and 2go, the system offers three distinct Chord Electronics' proprietary audio technologies in one: amplification, digital conversion and streaming. In addition to advanced wi-fi/Ethernet streaming, the flagship arrangement also offers premium solid state library storage and playback, courtesy of 2go's twin microSD card slots.
