Pre-Loved - Chord Signature Reference Speaker Cable - 1.5m

Chord Signature speaker cable was the first shielded speaker cable that Chord produced and it’s been part of their range of speaker cables for the past ten years. The original Signature speaker cable is still as impressive as it ever was, but with the development of their flagship Sarum speaker cable they learnt so much that they’ve been able to completely re-design Signature speaker cable to produce Signature Reference speaker cable.

Chord have improved the shielding, making changes to the spacing between the conductors and the shield and changed all the materials. The Signature Reference features silver-plated conductors in combination with PTFE insulation and the shield is of a higher density.

The changes have brought all the improvements they were hoping for and more. It isn’t as though the original Signature was exactly lacking when it came to levels of detail with its ability to carry dynamic information and the coherence and involvement it brought to any system it was put into. The Signature Reference though takes everything to another level and there’s more than a hint of the outstanding capabilities of Sarum speaker cable.

Extremely neutral, musically transparent and capable of producing profound improvements in all the systems Chord have tried it in.

Signature Reference is built in the same way as the original Signature. Each set is made to order and the two conductors are held in place with a precision machined aluminium clamp and twisted along their length to improve flexibility (Signature Reference is markedly more flexible than the original Signature). The aluminium clamp is designed to hold the cable securely but avoid any compression on the cable itself.
