Bluebird Music Introduces Chord CPA 2500 and SPM 650
Bluebird Music has announced their new entry level preamplifier and power amplifier from Chord Electronics. The new Chord CPA 2500 pre-amplifier comes equipped with two pairs of balanced and one pair of unbalanced outputs and a full function remote control. The output stage has been specially designed to perfectly match any Chord Electronics power amplifier. Six pairs of RCA phono style unbalanced inputs are configured for two CD players, one VCR or DVD player, one Radio or Tuner and two recording output monitors.
The matching new SPM 650 entry level power amplifier delivers 130 watts per channel into 8 ohms or 170 watts into 4 ohms. The output from the power supply uses a “Dynamic Coupling” technique in which the positive and negative rails are mutually coupled by a strong magnetic flux. When a high demand is put on one rail, the energy required is actually drawn equally from both rails. Magnetic current sensors provide electronic shutdown, and the SPM 650 comes fully loaded with both balanced and unbalanced input connections. Gold plated speaker binding posts on the SPM 650 accept both spade and banana cable connections.
US retail price is $6,495 for each unit.
