Chord Odyssey X Loudspeaker Cable

Odyssey X is The Chord Company's most popular loudspeaker cable, sitting at a comfortable price point that would suit the needs and requirements of an entry-level system, a mid-point system, or a reference system and allow these components to perform at their very best. Regardless of the system you have, you can be sure that Odyssey will retain the dynamic detail and sonic integrity of every signal being carried through it, enhancing the resulting sound and guaranteeing a lifelike and natural performance. 

Chord Odyssey X uses the same materials as Rumour X.  Odyssey’s heavier gauge conductors bring so much more detail and dynamics to a system, along with a degree of control and definition. The conductors used in Odyssey X are also found in Chord Epic and Epic XL speaker cables.

Previous versions of Odyssey speaker cables used PTFE insulation (often referred to as Teflon™) and until the arrival of Taylon®, this was Chords “go-to” material. Although expensive, PTFE offered the best performance.

The Chord Company is constantly developing and improving their materials meaning that alternatives to PTFE are now available. While the high cost of Taylon® prevents them from using this in all of our ranges, they were able to find a suitable family of insulation materials known as XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene). One version of this material looked particularly interesting and following listening tests, proved to be clearly better than the PTFE in Odyssey speaker cable – now known as Odyssey X.

Sold as single metre lengths, please adjust the quantity accordingly. Please ensure that the correct length, termination and quantity is selected before ordering, as once cables are custom cut to the order specifications, they can not be returned.
