 Chord Cadenza Analog Interconnects
Chord Company
$345.00
Chord Cadenza Analog Interconnects - 1 Meter Pair
|
“Great definition and dynamics; rock music rocks like it should and jazz just grooves.”
The Cadenza Reference brings a sense of life and joy to the music played on the system it is connected to. If the original Cadenza were a band, it would have been a super tight rock’n’roll band, bringing rhythms to life and making the most of dynamics and detail. The new Cadenza Reference though does all of this, and at the same time brings a level of refinement that renders even complex sounding instruments in a natural and believable manner.
The Cadenza Reference is perhaps the simplest way of understanding or hearing just how much influence the choice of RCA plugs can have on the quality of sound. The original Cadenza brought life and dynamics to any system it was connected to. The Cadenza Reference does all of that, except the new silver-plated Chord VEE 3 RCA plug lifts performance in every area and brings a new level of refinement and coherence.
This could be the perfect cable with which to revitalise an older system, or an ideal partner for the latest generation of technologically advanced USB equipped CD players and DACs. We use this a lot with the Audiolab 8200 CD player.
Listen to the Cadenza Reference with: Pearl Jam’s “Jeremy” from the album “Ten”.
Hear: The layers of guitar at the end of the song.
Listen for: The twelve string bass at the start of the song.

 Chord Carnival SilverScreen Speaker Cables (3 Meter)
Chord Company
$295.00
Chord Carnival SilverScreen Speaker Cable with banana - 3 Meter Pair
|
Chord Carnival SilverScreen is an affordable shielded speaker cable inspired by our award-winning Signature cable and like Signature, Carnival SilverScreen is capable of bringing astonishing improvements to the system it is connected to. There can be no doubting the importance of high frequency effective shielding. From entry level upwards, every hi-fi system responds to the introduction of shielded speaker cable. More detail, improved dynamics, better timing, tonal neutrality across the frequency range and most importantly of all, a hugely enjoyable and involving musical experience.
The oxygen free copper multi stranded conductors used in Carnival SilverScreen have been borrowed from the Chord Carnival Classic. The twisted pair configuration conductors are insulated with low-density polyethylene insulation and these are surrounded by a soft PVC casing that provides excellent mechanical damping characteristics. The conductors and PVC surround are then shielded with two heavily overlapped foil shields. To hold the dual shields in place and provide further mechanical damping a final translucent outer jacket is applied.
Carnival SilverScreen can dramatically improve the musical abilities of almost any system it is fitted to. However, given the price, Carnival SilverScreen should also be seriously considered for use in home cinema and multi-channel music systems. The sheer number of components and the amount of cabling involved in a typical multi-channel home cinema and music system makes a compelling case for the use of a shielded speaker cable. Wiring the front three speakers with Carnival SilverScreen and the rear speakers with either Carnival Classic or Leyline will produce excellent results.

$225.00
Chord Chameleon VEE 3 Analog Interconnects - 1 Meter Pair
|
“The way you can pick out and follow a single instrument within a band is extraordinary.”
The new conductor configuration in the Chameleon VEE 3 has a profound effect on just about every aspect of performance that is important to a properly immersive musical experience. There is a good chance that the Chameleon VEE 3 will begin to let you understand that your equipment is better than you thought and begin to understand just how good your favourite musicians are.
Three sets of silver-plated conductors are connected to silver-plated VEE 3 RCA plugs using a special silver solder and shielded from interference with a 93% braid and a heavy gauge shield.
There are a lot of very impressive components available these days, particularly some of the new generation of digital to analogue converters. The cost of the Chameleon VEE 3 might seem to be out of context compared to the cost of the DACs but you do need to have a listen. It’s a remarkable cable that will do justice to some remarkable products.
Listen to the Chameleon VEE 3 with: Smoke Fairies “Awake” from the album “Blood Speaks”.
Hear: The looping reverb drenched guitar that runs hypnotically through the song and the beautiful harmonies.
Listen for: The way “Awake” builds towards the end and the different timbres of the cymbals.

“So that’s why you use silver-plated conductors, all the extra detail is amazing.”
Silver-plated conductors and FEP insulation means that the Cobra VEE 3 will carry more information, more accurately. It’s a brilliant way to discover that there’s more to your favourite music than you thought. Carrying layers of detail and very fine dynamic information, bringing music to life and revealing subtle differences in timbre. Opening a window on the complex and wonderful sound that is the result of a beautifully played cello.

 Chord Odyssey Speaker Cables (3 Meter)
Chord Company
$425.00
Chord Odyssey Speaker Cable with banana - 3 Meter Pair
|
Chord Odyssey speaker cable shares its principal design features with Chord Rumour. Like Rumour, each conductor is made up of 19 strands of silver-plated oxygen free copper surrounded by PTFE insulation. However, the strands are of a heavier gauge and whereas Rumour uses 1.5mm overall diameter conductors, Odyssey uses 2mm overall diameter conductors.
The larger diameter conductors help Odyssey to carry dynamic information extremely well and this produces real improvements to the weight, attack and dynamic of notes across the entire frequency range. Cymbals are noticeably more realistic and acoustic guitars and pianos more lifelike; this ability to carry dynamic information so well means that Odyssey produces a remarkably musical and coherent sound. This, combined with Odyssey’s neutral tonality, helped it to win the Hi-fi News Best Speaker Cable award for five years in a row.

 Chord Optichord Digital Cable (1 Meter)

$95.00
Chord Optichord Digital Cable - 1 Meter
|
In theory, all optical cables should produce fairly similar results. In practice this isn’t the case. The Optichord is constructed using polymer tubing with a domed and polished cable end. The signal cable is protected with a cushioned outer jacket with a hard outer surface. The plug has been carefully engineered to provide a positive connection. When compared to a standard optical cable the Optichord brings vibrancy, life and colour to the system it is fitted to and the Optichord will perform well over lengths of up to 10 metres.
The Optichord is also available fitted with a minijack connector at one end. This connection is often found on laptop computers and the Optichord is an excellent cable to use when wishing to connect a laptop to a DAC.

 Chord Prodac VEE 3
Chord Company
$175.00
Chord Prodac VEE 3 Digital Cable - 1 Meter
|
“What pleases me about the Prodac is just how well it works with the new plugs. That’s a lot of performance for the price”
The Prodac VEE 3 Digital cable is a perfect example of just how much influence a digital cable can have on the sound of a system. The Prodac uses a specially treated conductor and a shielding system designed specifically for digital cables to produce a cable that brings a natural feel to voices and instruments without compromising detail or dynamics.
The signal conductor is produced from very high purity single crystal copper and insulted with foamed polyethylene. The shielding is a combination of different materials that perform really well when used with digital cables.
The VEE 3 RCA plug is gold-plated and attached to the cables in a way that ensures there are no signal quality affecting changes to the precise 75 Ohm impedance of the cable.
Listen to the Prodac Digital with: Caitlin Rose “Shanghai Cigarettes” from the album “Own Side Now”.
Hear: Caitlin’s great voice and a really tight band.
Listen for: The way the guitarist takes a run up to get into his guitar solo.

 Chord USB SilverPlus (1.5 Meters)
Chord Company
$125.00
Chord USB SilverPlus - 1.5 Meters
|
Responding to demand from computer audiophiles, we have produced our first USB cable. Using techniques developed during the design of our award winning HDMI cables, the USB SilverPlus uses heavily silver-plated oxygen free copper conductors in a twisted pair configuration to carry data. Insulation is gas foamed polyethylene and as with every Chord interconnect, obsessive attention has been paid to ensuring that the conductors are protected with a high frequency effective shield.
Prepare to be surprised at the difference it makes. We've been using one with an Arcam rDAC and a MacBook and it sounds amazing.
