From Chords latest price list....

Sarum T mains cable  £1,900

Sarum T speaker cable per metre  £600

Music mains cable  £5,000

Music speaker cable per metre  £1,100

Folkman,

I rechecked on Chord's website just to make sure I did not get it wrong. All are speaker cables.

Epic £50/m

Epic Reference £450/m

Signature Reference £675/m

Sarum T £1,800/m

Music £3,300/m

Not sure which information is correct though.

I think Chords website prices are for 1.5m pairs , checkout the full pricelist on Cymbiosis web site.

Just checked on the prices of Chord's speaker cables. A 4m pair of Sarum T speaker cable would cost £14,400 and the Music is almost double that. The prices seem to increase exponentially from the Chord Epic onwards (a mere £50/m). The Signature Reference is £675/m while the Sarum T is £1,800/m.

The Sarum T is undeniably tempting but too rich for my blood..

Eh? 5 metres stereo pair is £6,000. Still not spare change but where did you get £14,400 from?

£1,800 x 8 for a 4 metre stereo pair = £14,400

Check Audio T website, priced per stereo metre.

A 4mt stereo pair will cost £4,800.00 RRP for Sarum T Speaker Cable ( two cables 4 mts long one for each speaker).

I purchased a 5 Mt pair RRP £6,000.00 ( two cables each 5 mts ) for Sarum T.

Sarum T is £600.00 RRP per mt per single cable length.

Hope that clears up the issue

The Chord site is misleading. Epic Twin is indeed £50 per metre, but their other prices are for 3 linear metres - Epic Reference is £150 per metre (not £450), Signature Reference is £225 (not £675), etc..

I have recently purchased 2 x 5.5 metre lengths of Epic Reference, and believe me I did not pay £4,950!!

Did you find it enhanced the Dave, or that it made no difference?

I went from Signature TA to the Sarum SA and the difference was startling. I'd say it brought the best out of the Dave, but my guess (based on the recent T addition) that T or Music would reveal more.

Ah yes, the recent T addition....

sarum t interconnect with power cable on the dave is about 70% of the dave cost......

It's obvious French Rooster, one buys the Dave first  

A chord thread smitten with the dangerous Chord virus, now called Dave. I had hoped to read more about Sarum T.

a cable cannot improve on a source, only do the least damage.
