The Chord - Epic Super Twin
Loudspeaker hook
Chord's epic line is highly regarded, ranging from successful interconnects to speaker cables. The award-winning Epic Twin has won the hearts of music lovers for its good value for money. What mainly distinguishes Epic from its predecessor Odyssey are thicker conductors made of silver-plated oxygen-free copper, wrapped in PTFT insulation. The cable is armed with an additional high-density foil and a metal shield known from the higher Signature series, which is to improve the mechanical damping. Epic Super Twin is the same cable as EpicTwin, but in a double version of conductors from 2 to 4 for Bi-Wire.
Sound
Super Twin delivers a lot of energy and fast dynamic sound to the loudspeakers.
There is power, and a natural tone, a fresh musicality that welcomes us in each track, giving us a feeling of purity and wider insight into the recordings with well-captured details. Silver-plating of the conductors gives better timing and cleaner highs, the quality of which is close to higher-priced cables. Overall, the sound is fresh and consistent with a fast, crisp bass and well-defined vocals. Maybe the magic aura of the much more expensive Signature Reference or Red Dawn from Nordost is missing, but at this price we certainly cannot find any major flaws .
