Description
Suzi Pre
The clever Suzi Pre is a versatile and compact preamplifier featuring a built-in MM/MC phono stage with selectable gain and impedance.
Part of the Chord Hugo Range, the Pre can be used as a standalone pre-amplifier, and also allows direct integration of the Chord Electronics Suzi Amp stereo power amplifier to create a compact pre / power amp setup, too.
The unit features both 3.5 mm and 6.35 mm headphone outputs, three RCA inputs, one RCA output, and a 12 V DC output. A central polychromatic control sphere handles volume and input selection.
Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) compatibility is also offered, ensuring that lovers of vinyl are well catered for via the Suzi concept.
