CH Precision – 1 Series
SWITZERLAND · ULTRA HIGH-END AUDIO INSTRUMENTS · OFFICIAL SA DISTRIBUTOR

At CH Precision, precision is not simply a measure of performance; it is the principle that governs every decision, every technology, and every element of every design.
Every aspect of a CH Precision component is engineered in-house—from analog and digital circuitry to signal processing, streaming architecture, software, power supplies, and mechanical design. Rather than depend on off-the-shelf modules or outsourced platforms, we develop solutions expressly to advance believable music reproduction.
That same independence shapes our modular architecture. CH components are conceived as enduring platforms, able to evolve through hardware, firmware, and system expansion without rendering the original investment obsolete. It is not merely how we engineer. It is who we are.
Precision as Principle
CH Precision components are conceived not as fixed products, but as enduring platforms. Their modular architecture allows each component to evolve through hardware expansion, firmware refinement, and new system configurations, enabling listeners to deepen and refine their experience without abandoning their original investment.
This capacity for evolution is more than an architectural principle. It is the natural expression of a philosophy that unites invention, engineering discipline, and long-term respect for the listener.

D1.5 Transport/Player MSRP: R880k, Your Price R680k
The D1.5 is more than a disc transport; it is a statement of intent. By engineering every element in-house, from the MORSe transport mechanism to its modular architecture, CH Precision has redefined what optical playback can achieve in the modern era.
-
C1.2 DAC MSRP: R880k, Your Price R680k
The C1.2 DAC represents the full maturity of CH Precision's digital architecture: a high-resolution DAC, digital hub, and control center, all built around proprietary signal processing, advanced clocking, and a fully discrete dual-mono output stage. Its modular construction allows users to tailor digital and analog input configurations to their system, while its precision volume control, low-noise regulation, and scalable processing platform ensure performance that remains at the cutting edge. From optional streaming and USB interfaces to external clock synchronization and power supply refinement, every element is engineered with a clear upgrade path, allowing the C1.2 to evolve as the system around it grows

L1.5 Preamplifier TBA
Every source delivers a different combination of output level, impedance, grounding, bandwidth, and dynamic behavior. The preamplifier must accommodate these variables while providing the power amplifier with a stable, low-impedance signal—without altering the musical information between them.
-
X1 Power supply MSRP: R422k, Your Price R310k
The X1 External Power Supply captures one of CH Precision’s defining values: progression without obsolescence. Each component is designed to perform at the highest level in its own right, yet engineered with the foresight to grow as your system evolves
-
T1 Time Reference Clock MSRP: R610k, Your Price R480k
The T1 Time Reference is engineered to address one of the most overlooked yet decisive factors in digital playback—time-domain precision. By supplying an ultra-stable 10 MHz reference signal, the T1 can serve as the master clock for any digital device with a compatible external clock input, whether CH Precision or third-party.

A1.5 Power Amplifier MSRP: R925k, Your Price: R720k
eyond its technical accomplishments, the A1.5 is defined by its ability to translate engineering precision into a musical experience that feels immediate, effortless, and alive. Its combination of low noise, high current delivery, and wide bandwidth allows music to emerge with natural flow and unforced authority. Transients arrive with lifelike speed, sustained notes bloom with harmonic richness, and the soundstage unfolds with three‑dimensional stability. In a single‑amplifier stereo configuration, it will drive everything from compact monitors to demanding full‑range loudspeakers with confidence and nuance. And for those seeking to expand their system, the A1.5’s scalable architecture allows pairing in monobloc, bridged, or bi‑amp configurations, delivering even greater dynamic headroom and expressive potential.
