Several products from the Chordette range will also be in the suite, including the Index network music player (£990), the QuteHD USB/DSD DAC (£990) and the Scamp amplifier (£990).
A four-strong team from Chord’s UK business will be joining US distributor, Jay Rein, in the Bluebird Music suite. Attending the show will be: Proprietor John Franks; Production Manager Matthew Bartlett; Quality Control Manager John Morley and Sales Manger Colin Pratt.
