WORLD AWARDS HI-FI WORLD JANUARY 2018 www.hi-fiworld.co.uk BEST LOUDSPEAKER CABLE CHORD SARUM T I t’s rare that something truly different comes along in the world of loud- speaker cables – but Chord’s new Sarum T is just that. The reason? It uses a material called Taylon for its dielectric - which, under a different name, is used in the military and aerospace industries to ensure signal integrity at all operating temper- atures. Many cables impart a particular character on the music but the most impressive thing with the Sarum Ts is the absence of just that. It means the performance comes to the front with no smear or sense of constriction. Everything seemed improved once plugged in – from timing to instrumental cohesion. Only the very best ‘speaker cables do that and these warrant a place among that elite group. They are easily as good as some much more expensive rivals, being open, uncoloured and superbly natural – letting you hear the sound of your amplifier and loudspeakers as they should be.
