Product review: Chord Sarsen speaker cable - Hi-Fi Choice June 2015 Apart from sounding great, the cables that connect your power amp to your speakers often have to be routed inconspicuously around the edges of a carpet. Therefore, something that can handle the power from the amplifier has to be balanced with a cable that is both flexible and thin. The cable can be terminated in... View the Review
Product review: Chord C-line interconnect - Hi-Fi World May 2015 SOUND QUALITY Swapping in the C-Line for my usual Van Den Hul interconnect (which costs more than twice the price of the Chord) and it’s obvious this is no run-of-the-mill budget interconnect.

Product review: C-stream Ethernet - Hi-Fi Choice Review July 2014 C-stream Ethernet cable This cable is certainly well made and the connectors are noticeably superior in construction to the usual all-plastic RJ45 plugs that are often fitted to Ethernet cables and which squeeze the cable for strain relief. The C-stream, on the other hand, has a firm plastic clip and a gold-plated metal screen around... View the Review
Product review: Digital Chord (Indigo, Signature, Anthem) - Hi-Fi World Aug 2014 Resident analogue head Tony Bolton finds some digital interconnects that tickle his musical tastebuds. From their base on Salisbury Plain, near Stonehenge, the Chord Company have been busy creating a new range of digital interconnects using their ‘Tuned ARAY’ technology. They are tight-lipped about the details of this new configuration so I can only give... View the Review
Product review: Chord Signature USB Tuned ARAY - Hi-Fi News Outstanding Product July 2014 Chord’s top-of-the-line Signature Tuned Aray – voted the best USB in 2014! From the outset, it was patently clear we were auditioning a very ‘mature’ sounding cable, possessed of great control – delivering energy and passion when required as slickly as it revealed subtle details. Chord’s flagship Signature Tuned Aray cable sounds richly detailed and... View the Review
