The Chord Electronics Alto is a reference-grade professional headphone and nearfield monitor amplifier designed specifically for recording studios, mixing engineers, and uncompromising desktop audiophiles. Marking Chord’s dedicated expansion into the PRO audio sector, the Alto integrates the company’s flagship ULTIMA dual-feed-forward error-correction topology into a compact, rack-mountable (1U half-width) chassis.
This ensures absolute studio transparency, zero coloration, and lightning-fast transient response. Engineered for ultimate studio versatility, the front panel features four independent headphone outputs (two 3.5mm and two 6.35mm), capable of driving the most demanding studio headphones simultaneously. Beyond headphone amplification, the Alto is a highly capable stereo power amplifier, delivering a pristine 50 watts per channel (into 4 ohms) to drive passive nearfield studio monitors with iron-fisted control. Featuring fully balanced XLR inputs and a front-panel volume control, the Alto bridges the gap between ultra-high-end audiophile fidelity and professional studio reliability, making it the ultimate desktop audio hub for critical listening and mastering.
