    Chord Prima

    Posted by Gerhardt on Mar 2nd 2021

    Another fine example of Chord's sophisticated style and staple Tube-like sound. Pairs very nicely with my Valvet Class A monoblock amplifiers to produce sweet highs alongside a full mid-range and lows. Additionally, the Prima uses the same chassis as Chord's legendary DAVE DAC so stacks quite nicely. My only critique is the single XLR output, as the RCA line output is restricted to recording purposes.
