An innovative ULTIMA-tech stereo power amplifier, delivering 30 W per channel, designed to pair with the new Suzi Pre preamplifier, or the Hugo 2 or Hugo 2 and 2go to form a DAC amp or streaming amp.

The Suzi Amp power amplifier incorporates our groundbreaking ULTIMA amplifier topology, delivering 30 watts of stereo power in a remarkably compact design. It features 4 mm banana loudspeaker outputs, RCA inputs, and a removable solid aluminium cover block exposing connections for the direct integration of the Suzi Pre or Hugo 2.

When the Suzi Amp is paired with the Hugo 2 DAC and the 2go streamer, it transforms into a streaming amplifier complete with Roon Endpoint and DLNA/UPnP connectivity, plus the potential for up to 2 TB of onboard solid state storage from the 2go’s twin MicroSD slots.

Front-panel polychromatic buttons control power and the AV bypass feature, and its casework venting ensures optimal thermal performance. A 12 V DC output is provided for compatibility with other Chord Electronics devices and a headphone pass-through (3.5mm and 6.35mm) is active when the Suzi Amp is connected to the Suzi Pre or Hugo 2.
