The entire range of Chord speaker cables share
broadly similar design principles.
Chord Carnival Classic is similar to Leyline 2 in its
use of Oxygen free multi-strand copper conductors and polyethylene conductor
insulation.
The differences are in the diameter of the conductors
and the diameter of the polyethylene insulation that surrounds the conductors.
The larger diameter conductors offer a lower
resistance than those used in the Leyline and Carnival Classic will carry
information across a wider frequency bandwidth.
This is particularly noticeable across the bass
frequencies and makes the Carnival an excellent choice for use with home
cinema as well as hi-fi systems.
Carnival Classic's ability to accurately carry
dynamic information makes it a particularly good choice for the front three
speakers of a home cinema system, with Chord Leyline carrying information to
the rear speakers.
Chord Carnival Classic is available as a twin
conductor cable. If you wish to use this cable in a bi-wire configuration,
simply use two runs
