A discreet cable with a big performance. Speaker cables don’t get much more discreet than the new Sarsen from The Chord Company. Sarsen uses a clever mix of materials to produce a high performance speaker cable with a diameter of less than 4mm. The conductors are built from multi-stranded oxygen free copper and like other Chord Company speaker cables, are arranged in a twisted pair configuration. Insulation is FEP, a form of PTFE. The Chord Company uses PTFE insulation extensively – particularly with cable designs featuring silver-plated conductors. FEP however, has slightly different electrical characteristics, felt by the company to be better suited for use with un-plated copper conductors. The two conductors are covered with a special PVC outer jacket, chosen for its excellent mechanical noise damping abilities.
Don’t let the diminutive size of Sarsen fool you. Bandwidth – and particularly bass, is influenced just as much by materials as it is by diameter. The combination of oxygen free conductors and FEP insulation means that Sarsen will turn in a remarkable performance. Even when used to connect an affordable/budget lifestyle home cinema system, Sarsen will surprise with the extra detail, dynamics and transparency it brings. Sarsen is more than just a discreet cable for use with lifestyle home cinema systems.
The Chord Company’s extensive test and development procedures mean that Sarsen has been used with some seriously revealing systems and with some seriously big and transparent speakers. In fact, the performance characteristics of Sarsen clearly show the influence of their longest running speaker cable, Chord Rumour – a design so right that it has remained unchanged for almost fifteen years. So wherever there is a need for a truly discreet cable, but one with the performance of a heavier gauge product, there’s Chord Sarsen – speaker cable that’s hard to see but easy to hear. Chord Sarsen Speaker Cable connects your Amplifier to your speakers.
Chords ChordOhmic silver-plated loudspeaker plugs are designed to bring both the electrical and sonic benefits of silver to speaker cables.
Silver-plating not only makes sense from an electrical point of view, it can give an audibly superior result during listening tests, when compared with gold plated connectors. Plugs will also benefit from a major clean, using a good contact cleaner or enhancer.
ChordOhmic is Chord’s new silver-plated termination option designed to bring both the electrical and sonic benefits of silver to your speaker cable. Chord terminates their speaker cables using a specially designed HEXGUN. An airtight crimp is applied to the plug creating a secure and protected termination. This is a solder-free, airtight fusion between the cable and plug offering optimum signal transfer, excellent signal quality and perfect long-term performance. Furthermore, the banana plug itself is in contact with the binding post again at 360 degrees. The net effect of this is it maximises the signal transfer from the plug into your equipment and hence a superior performance. When a bare wire is used not all the conductors are in contact with the binding post and as a result, some loss occurs.
Chord Sarsen is available at £10.00 per metre, in any length up to 100.00 metres.
For all other lengths please contact us to discuss your requirements.
