The Chord Company adds XLPE technology to two more loudspeaker cables-- the Odyssey and Epic both receive an upgrade from the original PTFE (what most people know as Teflon) to XLPE (aka Cross-Linked Polyetylene).
The OdysseyX and EpicXL join several recently launched loudspeaker cables offering improved performance over the previous versions. XPLE promises improved phase properties over PTFE insulation, while offering a lower pricepoint compared to the flagship Taylon insulation. Cables featuring the technology also include silver-plated ChordOhmic speaker plugs.
