Ecosse The Director SE
For
Great sense of space; good with higher frequencies; nice styling
Against
Rivals are cheaper and offer more
At this lofty price, the Ecosse has its work cut out, but at first listen this modestly styled cable has plenty to offer.
It's a spacious-sounding performer, offering a welcome advantage in openness and high-frequency expression compared with its budget rivals.
But rivals are cheaper, while offering as much capability for less of your money. Given that some of these rivals are up to £20 less, that's enough to dock a star from the Director SE.
