Like the Signature Plus the most striking feature of the Chord Indigo Plus is the beautiful acrylic plug casing. Each one is hand machined to an exacting tolerance and polished to a mirror finish. Acrylic was chosen for its ability to control resonances around the RCA/phono plug contact areas and in comparisons with conventional RCA/phono plugs, the combination of low mass contact area and the resonance damping acrylic plug casing produced a markedly cleaner and more detailed sound. Extra $1300 per metre of cable.
The Indigo Plus also benefits from the addition of a secondary multi-stranded, silver-plated return path. The multi-stranded, silver-plated signal and return paths used on the original Indigo remain and like the Indigo, the Indigo Plus will transmit signal information over an extremely wide bandwidth. The addition of the secondary return path brings improvements to timing, dynamics and detail as well as depth and sound staging. As with the Signature Plus, these improvements not only enhance the enjoyment of music but also contribute to the high fidelity performance of any system they are fitted to. The Indigo Plus is capable of bringing dazzling clarity across the entire frequency range of a system and its ability to transmit micro-dynamic information so accurately at frequency extremes, coupled with its exceptional interference and noise rejection capabilities, makes the Chord Indigo Plus an ideal connection for anyone wishing to explore the potential performance that SACD, DVD audio, contemporary CD players and high end stand alone phono stages are capable of producing.
