Chord Digital Cables
Chord digital cables are designed to transfer digital audio signals with maximum accuracy, helping your system deliver cleaner, more precise and more detailed sound. Manufactured in the UK by Chord Company, these cables focus on maintaining signal integrity while reducing timing errors and interference.
Used to connect digital sources such as streamers, CD transports and TVs to DACs or amplifiers, they are a critical part of any modern hi-fi system.
Engineered for Digital Precision
Chord digital cables are built around maintaining a stable and accurate signal, particularly important for formats like S/PDIF, which transmit audio data over coaxial or optical connections . Key design features include:
- True 75-ohm impedance for consistent signal transmission
- Tuned ARAY conductor geometry to reduce reflections and interference
- High-quality shielding to minimise noise
- Precision connectors for secure, low-resistance contact
These elements help reduce jitter (timing errors), allowing more detail and coherence to be preserved in the digital signal.
Formats & System Compatibility
Chord digital cables are available in several formats to suit different systems:
- Coaxial (RCA / BNC) – widely used for CD transports, DACs and streamers
- Optical (TOSLINK) – offers electrical isolation from system noise
- AES/EBU (XLR) – balanced digital connection for higher-end systems
Coaxial designs typically use shielded cable construction to protect the signal from external interference while maintaining consistent impedance .
Key benefits:
- Designed and manufactured by Chord Company
- Maintains accurate digital signal transfer
- Reduces jitter and interference
- Available in coaxial, optical and balanced formats
- Suitable for entry-level to high-end systems
A key upgrade for digital systems, Chord digital cables provide a reliable and performance-focused way to connect your components and unlock greater clarity and precision.
