Product review: Chord Company OdysseyX speaker cable - Hi-Fi Choice 504 July 2023

‘A splendid performance of Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto In A Major K662 by the London Symphony Orchestra continues the good work, illustrating just how well the OdysseyX conveys all of the energy and excitement of the recording. The violins are particularly commanding and real in my listening room.’  Hi-Fi Choice  

Product review: Chord Company EpicX ARAY - The Ear July 2023

‘All signs point towards the Epic X Aray interconnect being another hit for Chord Company. Whilst it may not be the natural choice for those with systems that err towards a bright balance, it could prove just the tonic for those needing a little more lift and incisiveness. It delivered a very clean and musical...

Product review: Chord Company PowerARAY - Hi-Fi Choice 502 June 2023

‘I already use a number of different mains conditioners in my system and the PowerARAY still manages to add an extra layer of refinement to the overall performance, making it a very worthwhile addition to any setup.’ Hi-Fi Choice

Product review: Chord Company Clearway Power mains cable - Hi-Fi Choice May 2023

Product review: Chord Company PowerARAY - The Ear March 2023

‘I am sure the Chord Company will do very well with the Power ARAY. Whilst I am unsure how it would respond in a system that already contains alternative mains conditioning, regeneration or filtering products, I would advise all audiophiles to talk to their Chord Company dealer about trying one. I certainly have no plans...

Product Review: Chord Company PowerHAUS M6 - Hi-Fi Pig Feb 2023

It allowed my system to perform closer to what I believe is its full potential. I heard cleaner-sounding music that seemed to float around the speakers. Frequency extension was subjectively wider, timing qualities of musicians were easier to appreciate. Via the PowerHAUS M6, the music sounds more dynamic and has a greater impact. The soundstage...

Product review: Chord Company PowerHAUS M6 mains distribution block - The Ear Feb 2023

‘The Powerhaus M6 has raised the bar of my system’s performance. The M6 is supplied with a basic power cable but I highly recommend the Epic ARAY mains cable used for this review, it’s not inexpensive at £750 for the 1.5m length provided (1m is £500), but I consider that a fair price for the...
