The Chord Ultima Phonostage is developed in the dual mono concept and uses Chord's proprietary Ultima technology. The novelty is able to work with both moving magnets (MM) and moving coil (MC) and provides an adjustment of the load impedance (47 kΩ with capacitance options for MM cartridges and 12 ohms to 2.2 kΩ for MC cartridges), as well as the ability to set the desired gain factor.
The Chord Electronics Symphonic phono corrector is designed for use with movable coil (MC) pickups. Symphonic provides an almost infinite number of combinations of input sensitivity and input impedance. The symmetrical or unbalanced inputs used are illuminated by LED indicators. The Symphonic design also uses a new woofer filter that effectively suppresses low-frequency interference occurring in both channels.
