The Chord EpicXL Speaker Cable Terminated Pair combines elements of our Epic and Signature Reference/XL speaker cables. The cable adds a specially chosen soft PVC internal jacket to correctly space the shielding and minimise mechanical noise.
Each set of conductors uses a high-density braid and foil shield, and this is in turn protected by a translucent outer jacket, again chosen to reduce unwanted mechanical noise.ย The Chord Company build each set of EpicXL to order. The conductors are twisted together and clamped in place before being terminated with either banana or spade connectors.
By separately shielding the positive and negative conductors of each speaker cable run, we can produce a version of EpicXL that sounds markedly more refined and musically coherent. Itโs particularly good at carrying micro-dynamics and detail and brings great separation and definition to instruments and voices.
Source components and loudspeakers are evolving. The level of resolution that used to be the preserve of high-end audio has trickled down to surprisingly affordable designs. The downside is that they may well show you things you donโt want to hear โ like your cables.
EpicXL takes a crucial step forward in performance by using separate shields for each conductor.ย That means neutrality, less noise, a bigger and more immersive soundstage and most of all, it means getting new joy from your existing music collection.
Every set of EpicXL speaker cable is built to order and terminated at our UK factory with ChordOhmic 4mm banana plugs or ChordOhmic spade connectors.
