Introducing our 25th Anniversary ECOSSE CS2.15 Mk2 loudspeaker cable, a world beater thanks to our competitive advantage*
In our 25th Anniversary Year Ecosse Reference Cables are proud to introduce a loudspeaker cable that we firmly believe outperforms all others at under £10/m
It employs a solid conductor as opposed to our multi stranded types as it specifically addresses the oft-stated amplifier/loudspeaker combinations which may suffer slight upper-mid glare and treble edginess (and/or over-emphasised bass). The greater strengths of this cable’s perfectly circular solidcore conductors provide an apt solution to this problem.
The conductors are two solid cores of perfectly circular very high purity Oxygen Free Copper. High-grade polypropylene extrusions form the dielectric.
The conductors are then precision twisted with cotton fibres and tightly bound in cotton paper. This assembly ensures that the cable has high RFI, EMI and ESI rejection characteristics, is mechanically damped and that microphony is obviated. A cladding of soft PVC completes the structure, chosen for its excellent vibration-damping and environmental protection qualities.
*Ecosse Reference Cables competitive advantage.
We evaluate on the very finest music system that in truth is FAR FAR SUPERIOR to that of every one of illustrious competitors irrespective of where in the world they are.
We use the one of the worlds most advanced amplifiers, the Model88 Audiopax amplifier, at the core of our system to test and evaluate all our cables, with its unique so-called ‘timbre lock’ mechanism - which is a revolutionary device- the most significant advance in amplifier technology in decades. We are the only cable company in the world able to set this unique but ultra complicated timbre lock device! It gives us a distinct competitive edge bringing us closer to the music of the way the artist who recorded it intended it to be heard. Thus we are able to perceive the most minute musical deviations, ensuring that ‘competitive advantage’ when it comes to both evaluating any new cable we chose to introduce and of course any of our competitors cables we compare against.
The new ECOSSE CS2.15 Mk2 loudspeaker cable. From just £9.99/m unterminated.

This loom serves up a large and detailed sound, really eking out the finer points of the music...it takes apparent delight machine gunning fragments of detail at you missed by Atlas (Cables). Expansive and transparent sound, majors on rhythm and dynamics that many will love. No matter what type of music you present it with, it still makes a Herculean effort to deliver it to you in all its glory. Overall *****”

ECOSSE TRU-MONO VINYL TURNTABLE CONNECT REVIEW
“Whereas a mono button on a mixer does more than just joining the two legs, rather ensuring constant impedance and preventing sum and difference frequencies, this cable just joins them…Now, suddenly the music started to make a lot of sense. Surprisingly I didn’t hear artefacts from heterodyning. This £80 cable genuinely made the music come alive…The sound focussed in a way it cannot do in stereo. Scratches just disappeared…” HiFi Pig Magazine 2015
“The sound focussed in a way it cannot do in stereo. Scratches just disappeared… I think this is a clever and original product, and the sort of thing you might see presented on Dragon’s Den….Ecosse produce some of the most amazing and modest looking cables”. HiFi Pig Magazine 2015

BIG RED UC POWERCHORD GETS RAVE REVIEW IN HiFi+ MAGAZINE
“the Big Red in particular is very good at letting the electronics’ bass weight pass unimpeded; not in a kind of overt, ‘big bass’ sound but just in terms of improved resolution and expression in those lower octaves.” HIFI+ MAGAZINE NOV 2012
ALAN SIRCOM –EDITOR HIFI+ MAGAZINE RAVES ABOUT ECOSSE CABLES
“In some respects, the biggest impediment to using these Ecosse cables in truly mind-bendingly high-end systems is the price.
In a world where people spend tens of thousands on wire, the La Prima Donna and Big Red UC might just not cost enough to be taken seriously. How messed up is that!”

Nu DIVA INTERCONNECTS-5 STAR REVIEW WHAT HIFI Sept '05
BIG RED POWERCHORD 5 STAR REVIEW WHAT HIFI, Nov '05
Ecosse/Audiopax at the Scottish Hi-End Hi-Fi Show
Edinburgh Nov. 2004. Review printed verbatum from hugely influential website: avtalk.co.uk
I have to say I was very impressed by Elliots presentation. For me it was the best sound quality of all. What really impressed me was the room acoustics, well actually the lack of. To explain.
At one point when there was complete silence from the hardware, whilst in conversation with Elliot, I also listened to how our voices where behaving in the room which to be frank was none too clever. Lots of booming and multiple reflections from the hard perimeter walls made the room very unfriendly in terms of sound quality.
Luckily, Elliot has a vast amount of experience in sound production as well as the business he is in now which is re-production, so has first hand knowledge of how things "should" sound. In this respect, I guess that makes him one up on the rest of us.
The Audiopax hardware included the stunning 'Model Five' pre-amp, a pair of large but very attractive 'Model eighty eight' mono blocks and the Audiopax Ref 100 speakers. The speakers feature the famed dual concentric vifa tweeter which we're all familiar with here on AV Talk due to the Blue Sky 6.5's pro monitors. The bass and mid range drivers are all specially designed in house by Audiopax's Eduardo De Lima who has taken years to put this design together.
Elliot usually does his best to extract the best from his demo's by using some sublime high end Vinyl TT's for his front end. This is all very well but most of us will not use anywhere near this level of front end hardware so will find it hard to achieve the performance we heard via Elliot's system as a whole. Personally I think companies are duty bound to demonstrate the best quality their hardware can do but there are cynics out there who often call this "cheating". Not this time. Elliot was using a DVD player as his front end. And it certainly wasn't a Linn Unidisk. It was a Proceed DVD player which as transports go is not bad but certainly nowhere near as good as a dedicated high end CD player. How did it all sound? In a word, stunning!!!
I was sitting off centre and certainly not the ideal place distance wise. Regardless, imaging was pin point and with a well defined soundstage. One of the things that struck me was the massive dynamic range of the system. The range from quiet to loud passages added to the speed from which the system got there was just amazing. I listened to a number of what I'd call gentle music and vocals which all sounded lovely but I had my suspicions at how the system would handle a complicated heavy metal/rock track. Sure enough, Elliot also seemed to have mind reading skills as he pulled out just the thing. The Audiopax system just lapped up this heavy rock and asked for more. Every twang of the guitar was re-produced incredibly well, drums stopped dead "thwack"!!!, with no after effect wobble as in some "full range" speaker bass drivers. Full range speakers are hard to do. Producing speakers which handle a wide variety of music is possibly even harder.
To sum up. This system sounded stunning in a very poor room. God only knows how they would sound in a correctly treated room with optimum acoustics. With their Ref 100's, Audiopax have successfully created one of the best all rounders I've heard (good room or bad). Their pre-pro and mono blocks are not bad either
Ecosse at the London Hi-End Hi-Fi Show, Heathrow Airport Sept. 2004.
What an absolutely stunning show we had this year. Our room was constantly packed with show-attendees eager to hear the very best sound at the show-and quite a few rival manufacturers too('Big up' to Lars from Nordost, the gentlemen from Gallo, Tact, Hi-Fi+ Magazine etc etc).
On this occasion we paired our new Super Monocrystal SMS2.4 speaker cable with the Legend Mark II Interconnects -the result AUDIO NIRVANA!
Our cables we're paired with electronics from Meitner and Proceed and amps and pre-amp from Audiopax. Speaker were also by Audiopax.
Time and time people kept coming back saying how much better our sound was -and in such a small room-which I have to say was most gratifying but then again we do say that our cables outperform all others at similar price points - and its occasions like this show that give us the opportunity to prove it.
Roll on 2005!
