Product Details
Chord Epic Twin's silver-plated oxygen-free copper conductors, Teflon insulation and silicone surround are borrowed from Chord Odyssey speaker cable, and the shielding system is taken from the Chord Signature speaker cable. The development and success of Chord Signature proved conclusively that shielding speaker cable could bring serious improvements in sound quality. The lessons learnt during its development have now been applied to Epic Twin.Fitting shielding systems to speaker cables can bring the same sort of benefits that improving the shields on interconnects does. The lower levels of interference and the resulting lower noise floor bring obvious improvements to the high frequency performance, but it is the jump in performance across the bass and mid frequencies that really surprises listeners. The space and the extra harmonic content that Chord Epic Twin speaker cable can bring to a system allows bass instruments to breathe properly. The complex harmonic information that makes up the timbre of cellos, violins and violas is carried extremely accurately, likewise piano.
The lower noise floor also makes micro-dynamic information far easier to hear and it is far simpler to follow, understand and ultimately become more involved in even the most complex pieces of music.
