Chord Company has upgraded its Epic analogue interconnect, launching the EpicX Aray that builds on the company’s Shawline interconnect with heavier-gauge, silver-plated conductors.
EpicX Aray also has upgraded geometry, increased shielding volume and Chord Company’s Aray mechanical tuning technology.
The ‘X’ suffix denotes the upgrade to XLPE (Cross-linked Polythene) insulation, an enhancement which Chord Company has rolled out across several of its cables recently. XLPE complements the high-performance shielding architecture and proprietary Aray conductor geometry technology fundamental to the EpicX Aray.
Handmade to order in the UK, with connectors in VEE 3 RCA, DIN or XLR configurations, EpicX Aray’s connector contact areas/pins benefit from Chord Company’s trademarked ChorAlloy multi-metal plating system, which offers lower intermodulation, full solderability and a tarnish-free finish.
A directional design, indicated by arrows on the heat-shrink, EpicX Aray comes with a lifetime warranty against defective materials and workmanship.
EpicX ARAY is available in 0.5 m and 1 m lengths, with custom lengths/terminations available to order.
