EpicX is based on Chord's multi-award-winning Chord OdysseyX speaker cable. Both cables use 12 AWG oxygen free copper negative and positive conductors, silver-plated and insulated with XLPE before an outer PVC jacket is applied.

Chord Epic X Speaker Cable - Custom Length

 

EpicX has been part of Chord's speaker cable range for many years – it’s a shielded cable that works with pretty much every style of speaker. From mid-price to high end, EpicX brings detail, dynamics, resolution and coherence to every speaker it’s used with. It’s particularly good at bringing control and definition across the bass frequencies and is the ideal cable solution for floor-standing speakers.

EpicX is based on Chord's multi-award-winning Chord OdysseyX speaker cable. Both cables use 12 AWG oxygen free copper negative and positive conductors, silver-plated and insulated with XLPE before an outer PVC jacket is applied. The key difference (and performance leap) is due to the effective high frequency combination shield and translucent PVC jacket that is added to EpicX.

 

Specification:

  • Conductor: Silver-plated OFC
  • Insulation: XLPE
  • Configuration: Twisted pair
  • Shielding: High density foil and 93% coverage metal braid. Translucent PVC outer jacket
  • AWG: 12
  • mm2: 3.31
  • Diameter: 11mm

 

Termination

Futureshop Approved Chord Ohmic Terminator

This cable is custom-made according to customers specific requirements as selected by the various drop-down options above. Future Shop’s highly experienced engineers professionally terminate Chord Cable’s using their superb silver-plated ChordOhmic plugs.

ChordOhmic is Chord’s new silver-plated termination option designed to bring both the electrical and sonic benefits of silver to your speaker cable. Future Shop terminates Chord speaker cables using Chord’s special HEXGUN. An airtight crimp is applied to the plug creating a secure and protected termination. This is a solder-free, airtight fusion between the cable and plug offering optimum signal transfer, excellent signal quality and perfect long-term performance. Furthermore, the banana plug itself is in contact with the binding post again at 360 degrees. The net effect of this is it maximises the signal transfer from the plug into your equipment and hence a superior performance. When a bare wire is used not all the conductors are in contact with the binding post and as a result, some loss occurs.

Future Shop also offer gold-plated banana and spade plugs which are soldered as an alternative to the ChordOhmic plugs.

Surprised (and pleased)
15 Dec 2024
Acquired ATC SCM 40 speakers with no link between bass & mid-range posts (there was a Tellurium Q Blue jumper between tweeter & mid).

Replaced the solid core links with Epic X jumpers. I wasn’t really expecting much of an uplift, but I was wrong! There are huge improvements in all areas: bass extension, sound stage depth & width, and separation of instruments are all significantly better.

I was so impressed that I ordered a second set to swap out the Tellurium jumpers a couple of days later. A second set of improvements followed. I now think I will upgrade the speaker leads to the same cable. There is just the small matter of the cost of 2 x 5m to consider.

Replacement for standard metal links
28 Aug 2024
Verified Buyer
I ordered these as replacements for the standard metal links, which I had overlooked, and the difference was immense: extended treble and midrange, better separation, bigger soundstage, and vocals sound so much better.

I don’t have any other jumper cables to compare them to but they are well made, Futureshop done a really good job finishing them with spade connectors and delivered them the next day!

I couldn’t ask for more.

Fantastic cable
21 Jan 2022
Verified Buyer
Having recently purchased Chord Epic X speaker cable, I decided to have the same jumper cable. Noticed an improvement in instrument separation and dual harmonies compared to my previous jumper cables.

Certainly improved the sound stage.

Made a big difference swapping these for the metal bars that came with the speakers. Improved treble and mid range focus and clarity.
