Chord's innovative clean-power technologies and custom high-end components within their stereo power amplifiers are what have propelled the ULTIMA series to legendary status inside and outside of the recording studios and home Hi-Fi audio systems. Their ability to instantaneously react and deliver sheer power while maintaining transparency and incredibly low distortion leaves you with nothing but a masterpiece when it comes to your music.
Like the ULTIMA Pre 2, the ULTIMA 6 Amplifier is part of Chord Electronics' "Ultima" series, which represents their top-of-the-line audio products. The ULTIMA 6 is the latest update to the popular ULTIMA 5 power amp. Providing a great selection of balanced and unbalanced inputs and high-quality loudspeaker outputs, the ULTIMA 6 delivers nothing but up to 180 watts of clean and untarnished power to your speakers.
Chord's ULTIMA 6 power amplifier is a statement piece in itself, with a timeless yet futuristic design that is consistent across their ULTIMA amplification series of products. There's no denying that blue glow.
Dragon Cable Recommendation: The Silver Dragon Interconnect is one of our best-selling cables at Moon Audio and our top recommendation to pair with the Chord ULTIMA Pre 6 Amplifier. Sold in Pairs, the Silver Dragon V2 is our top-of-the-line silver conductor-based interconnect. With a braided geometry and amazing shielding, this interconnect is a remarkable solution where noise isolation is key. The Blue Dragon Power Cable is also recommended to provide the cleanest and unbridled power to your high-end amplifier.

The Chord Electronics ULTIMA 6 currently offers the most affordable way into Chord's next-generation ULTIMA family of stereo power amplifiers. It builds upon its award-winning predecessor, the SPM 1050 MK II, adding Chord's ground-breaking next-generation ULTIMA amplifier topology.
The new 180-watt model, which benefits from John Franks’ ground-breaking dual-feed-forward circuit delivers a lightning-fast response coupled with effortless power for astonishing dynamics and timing, delivering unrivaled fidelity. It’s the perfect addition to your high-end system, sending pristine analogue audio from your favorite DAVE DAC or Streamer and preamp to your speakers. The ULTIMA Series is not a headphone amplifier system or meant to be used with full-size headphones.
30 years-in-the-making, Chord's new dual-feed-forward topology offers breakthrough performance and is our first all-new circuit in three decades. ULTIMA amplifiers have been engineered for the very finest hi-fi systems; ULTIMA is the ultimate expression of the finest high-performance, ultra-fast, high-power amplifier technology available today.
The ULTIMA 6 has an incredible 16 proprietary MOSFET power devices that demand the most advanced and refined drive circuitry, featuring an ultra-low-distortion, high-voltage amplifier operating at a very high speed: 300 volts per microsecond.
Chord's TO3-style dual-die lateral-matched MOSFETs are continuously monitored with output stage error-correction circuitry and feature fully balanced input circuitry with DC-tracking servos and full temperature compensation.
The ULTIMA 6 power amplifier shares the same DNA as the flagship and reference-level monos, yet benefits from greater practicality and affordability, due to a differing power output.
Chord's renowned aircraft-grade solid aluminum casework offers a reassuringly high-end and entirely non-resonant enclosure for the electronics and is presented with a redesigned 28-mm-thick fascia featuring John Franks’ latest aesthetic.
A recessed spherical polycarbonate power button illuminates for standby and operation modes and a discreet, hidden front panel switch, located in the vertical split line, enables dimmable lighting.
The amplifier’s rear panel contains both balanced and unbalanced connections, high-quality loudspeaker terminals, a 12 V trigger and a C-19-type IEC.
