Offered is „SPM 1200 B“ by Chord Electronics as second-hand device from the category „Transistor-Fullamp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 7784477440 ends on 24.12.2026 at 17:34 o'clock.
Are you looking for serious current delivery rather than a compact, low-power amplifier? At €2,100, this is a fair buy: it sits exactly at the median of five comparable listings, comfortably within the typical €1,996–€2,356 range, rather than being either a bargain or an ambitious ask.
The SPM 1200 is well regarded for its huge reserves, confident control of difficult speaker loads, and clean, dynamic presentation. Depending on the exact version, you get substantial output—roughly 315–350 watts per channel into 8 ohms—with both balanced and single-ended inputs. That makes it a particularly worthwhile match for demanding floorstanders or a revealing system where grip and composure matter. At this price, condition, service history, and confirmation of the exact SPM 1200 variant are the sensible checks; a clean, fully working example with original accessories would be an easy recommendation.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Chord Electronics, a British high-fidelity powerhouse, traces its roots to the aviation industry. Founded in 1989 by John Franks, a former Marconi Avionics engineer, the company emerged from his early 1980s innovations in ultra-reliable, high-frequency switching power supplies for aircraft electronics. Initially too costly for commercial viability, the designs became feasible with advancing components, launching Chord from its Kent headquarters in a renovated pumphouse that remains its manufacturing heart.
The brand excels in premium amplifiers and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), blending Franks' analog prowess with digital expertise from FPGA specialist Rob Watts. Early power amplifiers quickly won acclaim from professional studios like the BBC, Abbey Road, and Skywalker Sound, establishing credibility before shifting focus to consumer hi-fi. Iconic products like the Hugo and Mojo DACs exemplify their boundary-pushing approach, alongside integrated amps and streamers, all handcrafted in the UK without compromise on power, precision, or musicality.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Chord commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its uncompromising engineering, aerospace-grade reliability, and bold innovation. Independent and proudly British, it sets benchmarks in transparency and dynamics, attracting buyers who demand reference-level performance over mass-market concessions.
