Symphonic Phono Stage: Unleash Vinyl’s True Symphony
Tucked within the Choral range, the Symphonic stands as Chord’s premier MC phono stage, surpassing the entry-level Dual with an array of sophisticated features. Leveraging the latest in high-frequency power supply technology, the Symphonic maximizes vinyl’s auditory potential, aligning with the Choral range’s esteemed performance level, including the acclaimed DAVE DAC/preamp.
Designed for seamless integration with high-quality turntables, the Symphonic offers extensive customization with nearly unlimited input impedance and gain settings, alongside both balanced and unbalanced cartridge connections. Its advanced settings are easily adjusted externally, with internal LEDs indicating selections.
Featuring a rumble filter to eliminate low-frequency noise across both channels, the Symphonic adheres to the RIAA curve precisely, with an optional IEC curve response available through the rumble filter setting. Compatible with Chord’s CPA series preamps, the Symphonic can be utilized in either balanced or unbalanced modes, depending on the turntable’s tonearm wiring, showcasing its versatility and alignment with Chord’s high-quality amplification standards.
My turntable is still in for repair, yet I’ve already been through three phono stages without even hearing them. But this one – this one is truly magical. Even the little portholes revealing the circuitry inside are worth it on their own.”
