Chord : EpicX Speaker Cable
Description EpicX has been part of Chord’s speaker cable range for many years – it’s a shielded cable that works with pretty much every style of speaker. From mid-price to high end, EpicX brings detail, dynamics, resolution and coherence to every speaker it’s used with. It’s particularly good at bringing control and definition across the bass frequencies and is the ideal cable solution for floor-standing speakers. EpicX is based on the multi-award-winning Chord OdysseyX speaker cable. Both cables use 12 AWG oxygen free copper negative and positive conductors, silver-plated and insulated with XLPE before an outer PVC jacket is applied. The key difference (and performance leap) is due to the effective high frequency combination shield and translucent PVC jacket that is added to EpicX. EpicX is the perfect partner for Chord Company ChordOhmic plugs, neatly complemented by the new ‘trousers’. In addition to factory terminations, the cable can also be professionally terminated by participating Chord Company dealers equipped with the new ChordOhmic Hex Gun tool; the service not only delivers tailor-made lengths, but it also jumps the build queue at the factory.
This versatile system comes standard with four distinct siren tones and can be used to alert a variety of situations including: a lost camper; an unwanted guest; inclement weather; or signal the “all clear” when everything can return to normal. Available from single through quadruple siren station packages, the Camp Emergency Alert System include:
- All-weather, 120 degree directional horns
- WAVE-wireless transmitter with antenna
- AC power supply and battery backup
- 50′ coaxial cable
- Optional: solar panel, strobe light, and emergency button (allows for quick activation with the punch of a single button)
