The Chord Company XLR Interconnect

The Shawline analogue interconnect is an exemplary cable, designed to offer the best possible signal transfer and audio quality at its price. The Shawline borrows much of the design philosophies that made Sarum Tuned ARAY one of the best cables in its class. This cable makes use of high-quality silver played multistrand oxygen free copper. These conductors utilise a unique shielding that has been designed to work across a wide frequency range while also reducing mechanical interference. 

The conductors are configured to Chord's Tuned ARAY technology and are contained within a specifically chosen outer jacket that ensures a flexible operation and unbeatable signal transfer at this price. 2 x XLR balanced cable connection. 

For Tuned ARAY cables to work, every aspect needs to be millimetre perfect. Hand building is crucial to the complexity of the design. Using a Tuned ARAY design within the Shawline interconnect enables us to offer you a product at a price that allows it to be matched with surprisingly inexpensive components. The Shawline conductors are built from silver-plated multi-strand oxygen free copper, insulated with high performance PTFE. The unique shielding has been designed to work across a wide frequency range and reduce mechanical interference, and is fitted with silver-plated Chord VEE 3 RCA plugs with PTFE insulation.

 The Tuned ARAY conductor configuration has been designed to improve the Shawline interconnect’s capability of carrying a musical signal coherently. The conductors are contained within a specifically chosen outer jacket to ensure flexibility and to further reduce mechanical noise. The Shawline Tuned ARAY interconnect is extremely transparent and carries signals with a high degree of accuracy. This cable will help you to enjoy your system at its musically coherent best. The Shawline range features Chord's latest Tuned ARAY technology and comprises RCA, DIN and XLR analogue interconnects, RCA, BNC and USB digital interconnects and a complimentary speaker cable. All connectors feature silver-plated contacts.
