I have not tried time enough to make a better review, but my first impressions are there is a noticeable difference between these and standard cables. I think it sounds louder, richer, cleaner, less harshness, less roughness, less gritty, (less strident overall) than standard gear.
Because of the more detail (and so complex), I did not need to rise the volume up to my normal listening levels. A few miliwatts were more than enough, so I wonder if this could be a good way to listen to loud music, like punchy or heavy metal music. I experienced also that after a couple of albums I get used to the improved sound of my system, maybe an inherent audiophile´s characteristic.
I think I am still hearing inconsistent very good sound because of AC line dirt and artifacts passing trough my standard USB cable to my DAC, so I am just about going for the Chord C- USB cable and some line conditioner or regenerator. Hope can find good ones at a fair price.
Review Update:
My first impressions are there is a noticeable difference between these and standard cables. I think it sounds richer, cleaner, less harshness, less roughness, less gritty, (less strident overall) than standard gear. I could find more detail and softness in the high frequencies. I experienced also that after a couple of albums I get used to the improved sound of my system, maybe an inherent audiophile´s characteristic. I´ve just purchased the Chord C-USB cable, for the Laptop to DAC interconnection, It is already on the way home and waiting to improve the listening experience also with this addition.
Next step will be adding some line conditioner or regenerator. Hope can find good ones at a fair price.

Such a massive improvement.
Wasn’t expecting a big difference, but...

I bought this hoping I might hear a minor improvement to the sound, but wasn’t expecting much. However, it’s now much louder and more detailed than before.
I’m getting a better quality and equal volume with the amp dial at ‘9 o clock’ as I was getting at about 1 o clock before. My last cable was about 15 years old and maybe had something wrong with it, because this is just so much better.

Using between my Technics SL1500c and Rega Fono Mini A2d for ripping vinyl. Recommended.

Very good cable with astonishing musicality in relation to the price with dynamics and a very open sound stage (we do not have this kind of manufacturers in France!).
Stamps respected but beware of the "clear" tendency which requires an opposite equipment.

This cable is a massive sound upgrade to my previous standard no brand cables. Very pleased I upgraded. The listening is much more enjoyable.
Best value for money under £50

The Chord C-Line surprised me by its construction and it fit very tightly on my amplifier and DAC. The cable provided what I wanted, removing interferences, but it brought me something I didn't expect, an improvement in the sound quality (a softer, deeper, musical sound). I definitely recommend this cable!
A great value for money cable

A great value for money cable which makes a positive difference to the system.
This cable is being used between my phono stage and my amplifier and has improved the sound over the cheaper cable it has replaced. There is a well defined and forward soundstage and clarity is far superior to the original cable.

These cables seem to put a smile from ear to ear every time I listen to Orchestral. They just seem to have a fluid finesse and dynamic presentation to them.
Absolutely Love them!! This is my second pair and have no regrets, Highly recommend this cable and FutureShop for providing awesome service!
