Chord Company Signature ARAY Power Cable

Description

Chord’s first venture into the controversial world of hi-fi power cables began with the their Power Chord. With the knowledge wed gained from the development of high frequency effective shielding Chord were finally able to produce a power cable that was consistent in performance from system to system. The shielding was the easy bit. Chord learned an awful lot more strange things in the development process. Chord were truly shocked at the silence between notes and how much it added to the musical experience.

While this was happening, Chord were for the first time developing UK mains and IEC plugs of Chord’s own design. That was a really big deal. Heavily silver plated contacts and fitted with silicone damping to minimise vibration between the top and bottom section of the mains plug and more silver-plating on the IEC as well. From all of this came the Signature ARAY Power Cable. Fitted with Chord’s new silver-plated mains and IEC plugs and using an ARAY conductor configuration along with a dual layer shield featuring 95% coverage high density braid.

When you fit a Signature ARAY Power Cable its easy to hear whats suddenly missing. Noise! That lack of noise means more music and more of all the really beautiful stuff. Its the dying tones of piano notes, the real attack of a snare drum or the brittle aggression of a Fender Telecaster being played on its bridge pickup. Borrowing a Signature ARAY Power cable from your local retailer for the weekend and connecting to your source component is likely to be an enlightening experience. Why the source component?because if you reduce the interference entering the source component, youll hear it through the whole system. That doesnt mean that adding more wont make things any better, it will. Chord regularly use Chord’s CD transport to demonstrate just what one power cable in a system can do and when the listener is in a suitable state or shock Chord add them to the rest of the system! Were not making magic with power cables were just using an awful lot of experience to make cables that will makes your system sound more musical, so go have a listen.
