AWARDS/REVIEW

"Ecosse's ES2.3/CS2.15 is superb."

"…you can't do better than the fabulous ES2.3/CS2.15 biwire."

WHAT HI-FI? SOUND AND VISION MAGAZINE,UK

Ecosse stands apart in regards to the appropriate conductors one should use in a biwire combination. Our extensive R & D confirms that a mix of multi-stranded and solidcore conductors offer greater dynamics, more extended bandwidth at frequency extremes, and the finest of detail. Our competitors fail to understand the obvious advantages of using both multi-stranded AND solid core conductors in a bi-wire configuration (they tend to use 2 x the same multi-stranded cable resulting in a rather sluggish sound).

For systems offering greater clarity and dynamics, we offer the superb mid/hi-end biwire set-up ES4.45, which employs separate multi-strand and solidcore conductors- in separate sheaths. With the ES2.3/CS2.15 (or ES4.45 bi-wire), our ES2.3 multistrand cable drives the bass/mids and is the perfect match with the CS2.15 solidcore, driving the tweeters. more...

Here we introduce a large perfectly round solidcore conductor-our, so-called, CS2.15 'speaker cable'.

The CS2.15 is a quality; full bandwidth loudSpeaker cable sometimes necessary when we acknowledge that some amplifier/loudspeaker combinations, while exhibiting many strengths, may suffer well documented slight upper-mid glare and treble edginess (and/or over-emphasised bass). The greater strengths of its 1.5 sq mm perfectly circular solidcore conductors provide the solution to this problem.

The occupation area for the mid and high frequency signals in a solidcore conductor is greater than a stranded conductor of similar X-section, therefore resistance is reduced and delivery of high frequency information is improved and even extended. Low DC resistance meanwhile maintains low frequency extension and control, presenting it with weight, speed and perfect pitch accuracy. The result is an improved sense of ambience and larger soundstage; vocals are clearer with real presence and natural breath tones; glare and edginess give way to a sweeter and more detailed treble.

This combination has won numerous 5-STAR/BEST of TEST/ULTIMATE GUIDE AWARDS

May be configured 2-to-4 or 4-to-4 and terminated in z/x copper bananas or spades, or our new Ecosse logo z/x bananas.

The ES4.45 is available ex factory pre-terminated and in nylon webbing- to keep the cables tidy. It represents our no-compromise, quality performance biwire cable set.

Suitable for both biwiring and bi-amping. In a tri-wire or tri-amp set-up, we recommend the ES2.3 driving the bass units and 2 runs of CS2.15, one driving the mid units and one driving the treble units for ultimate bandwidth extension and presence.
