Chord Cobra Plus 2 RCA to 2 RCA 0.5m Interconnect
Cobra has been part of the Chord Company range for over twenty years and Chord Cobra Plus 2 RCA to 2 RCA 0.5m Interconnect represents its fourth revision. Cobra 3 (the cable that Chord Cobra Plus 2 RCA to 2 RCA 0.5m Interconnect replaces) has been one of The Chord Company's most popular cables, so the decision to revise this was not taken lightly. However, during the development of Chord Company high end cables some fundamental lessons about shielding have were learned. Applying these principles to the Chord Cobra Plus 2 RCA to 2 RCA 0.5m Interconnect has produced an extraordinary increase in performance.
The twisted pair configuration, pseudo balanced, oxygen free copper conductors used on Cobra 3 remain in place, as does the low-density polyethylene insulation. Mechanical damping however changes and four runs of twisted cotton now run alongside the conductors to help damp unwanted vibrations. The major changes take place at the point of applying the shielding. The density of the woven braid used on the Cobra 3 has been improved. This is then surrounded by a heavy gauge foil shield. Although The Chord Company has used foil shields for many years, the improvements in performance to be gained by increasing the gauge of the foil are very impressive. When compared to the original Cobra 3, the new Chord Cobra Plus 2 RCA to 2 RCA 0.5m Interconnect is capable of bringing a markedly more neutral and detailed sound to the system to which it is fitted. Dynamics (particularly micro-dynamics) are also easier to hear, so rhythms are more clearly stated and complex music is simpler to follow.
The Chord Cobra Plus 2 RCA to 2 RCA 0.5m Interconnect is fitted with new Chord VEE Plugs. A high performance RCA (phono) plug with vibration eliminating ABS enclosure. Teflon® insulated gold-plated centre pin and low mass signal return surround. Non compression clamping system reduces potential signal corruption.
