The conductors were oxygen free copper, the insulation was gas foamed Polyethylene, Shielding was a three layer braid and foil combination, effective to high frequencies and the outer jacket a flexible polyethylene. It was just flexible enough to fit into a system. It didn’t need a press release or a review, it took off so fast by word of mouth, that for a while there was almost a permanent waiting list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt remained unchanged for about ten years, until we could apply improved building techniques and materials such as more efficient shielding, silver-plated conductors and PTFE insulation that would produce a more neutral tonal characteristic and a cable better able to carry detail, dynamics and timbre.  This became Signature Reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignature Reference, like most of our cables, used PTFE insulation (often referred to as Teflon™) and until the arrival of Taylon®, was our “go to” material. Although expensive, it offered the best performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial technology is constantly developing and improving and alternatives to PTFE are now available. While the high cost of Taylon® prevents us from using this in our Signature range, we were able to find a suitable family of insulation materials known as XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene). One version of this material looked particularly interesting and following listening tests, proved to be clearly better than the PTFE in Signature Reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery set of SignatureXL speaker cable is built to order and terminated at our UK factory with ChordOhmic 4mm banana plugs or ChordOhmic spade connectors.  Available in red\/black or all black colour combos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of these changes combine to produce a major step forward in musical reproduction at this price point – but don’t take our word for it. Request a demonstration from your nearest Chord Company retailer and hear for yourself what this cable can bring to your system and favourite recordings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chord Company","offers":[{"title":"3.0m","offer_id":57790369726851,"sku":"16514","price":2520.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.0m","offer_id":57790369759619,"sku":"16517","price":4200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.0m","offer_id":57790369792387,"sku":"16519","price":5880.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/9356\/6595\/files\/14636-1ChordSignatureXLMainSoundcraftHiFi.jpg?v=1776181970","url":"https:\/\/www.soundcrafthifi.com\/products\/chord-signaturexl-speaker-cable-2-2-factory-terminated-pair","provider":"Soundcraft Hi-Fi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
