I popped in to TomTom in St Alban’s after a meeting today as I had a half hour spare. We got talking about New Classic cabling and touched on Super Lumina (combining speaker and Balanced XLR, in addition to Powerline)
I’ve wanted to compare this sort of configuration against my evaluation last year of Chord Signature, cost to one side (it’s a lot), I was interested to hear if anyone had tried that SL combo or had an intention to.
TomTom had the SL XLR IC in their 200/300 demo setup, I’d never even seen one in the flesh before today, but they rated it and felt it was up there in Sarum T territory.
It’s mostly folly for me today given the cost but my curiosity remains.
I’m planning a longer listening test with them as time allows and will share any insights worthy of a post.
