The Chord Comapny generally favour a combination of silver-plated conductors and Teflon insulation, believing that this produces an extremely neutral tonal characteristic. Now with the new Vee plug, which has a profound effect on the performance of the cable. Detail and definition are enhanced and pace, rhythm and timing improved.
The Chord Codac VEE Plug however uses a low-density gas foamed polyethylene insulator in order to reduce the dielectric constant.
This allows Chord to produce an extremely cost effective and accurate digital interconnect. The heavy gauge of the central silver-plated signal conductor makes the Chord Codac an excellent choice for use in home cinema systems where the digital signal often needs to be carried over a considerable distance.
The foil and silver-plated braid shielding system ensures high levels of protection from interference, a critical factor, given the complexity of many home cinema set-ups.
