Proudly Delivering Studio-grade Audio Performance
Chord Electronics is a British manufacturer founded in 1989 by engineer John Franks. The company first gained recognition for building extremely robust amplifiers for professional recording studios before expanding into high-end consumer audio.
A defining element of Chord’s design philosophy is the use of custom FPGA-based digital processing developed by digital designer Rob Watts. Rather than relying on conventional DAC chips, Chord components use proprietary digital architectures designed to improve timing accuracy and signal reconstruction.
Products such as the Chord DAVE DAC and Hugo series have received widespread international acclaim and multiple industry awards from publications including Hi-Fi+, The Absolute Sound, and What Hi-Fi?.
Why we are enthusiastic about Chord Electronics
Chord Electronics represents a distinctive engineering approach to digital audio. Its proprietary digital technology and rigorous design philosophy provide an exceptionally transparent source foundation for many of the systems we assemble at Walden.
