"What a great sound, and from such a small cable!”

Speaker cables don’t get much more discreet than the new Sarsen from The Chord Company. Sarsen uses a clever mix of materials to produce a high performance speaker cable with a diameter of less than 4 mm.

Don’t let the diminutive size of Sarsen fool you. Use the right materials and bass is tight, defined and properly tuneful, giving the music a real sense of drive and rhythm.

Just like our other high-performance speaker cables, Sarsen uses FEP conductor insulation; the right choice of insulation makes a big difference to performance. Sarsen will surprise with the extra detail, dynamics and transparency it brings.

Even when used to connect an affordable/budget lifestyle home cinema system, Sarsen will surprise with the extra detail, dynamics and transparency it brings.

Sarsen is more than just a discreet cable for use with lifestyle home cinema systems. The Chord Company’s extensive test and development procedures mean that Sarsen has been used with some seriously revealing systems and with some seriously big and transparent speakers.

So wherever there is a need for a truly discreet cable, there’s Chord Sarsen: speaker cable that’s hard to see but easy to hear. The benefits are obvious even if the cable isn’t.

Sarsen was developed with high performance lifestyle audio and home cinema systems in mind. The kind of system where a really good speaker cable was going to make a difference, in a situation where speaker cable should definitely be heard and certainly not seen!

The clever use of oxygen free conductors and FEP insulation means that Sarsen will turn in a remarkable performance. Even when used to connect an affordable/budget lifestyle home cinema system, Sarsen will surprise with the extra detail, dynamics and transparency it brings.

It turns out though that Sarsen is more than good enough to find its way into some very serious systems indeed; the combination of performance and size appeals to a lot of people.

So if you really have a problem with the size of a speaker cable but don’t want to compromise too much on the performance – take a look at Sarsen.
