DF: How'd you get your name, and are there any other common references (E.C., for example)?
ED: Ecosse is the French word for Scotland-we like to think we're Scottish, ethically and quality -wise but with a universal appeal.
DF: Are you the founder? How'd you get involved with this industry?
ED: I am the founder.
DF: What product is currently your pride and joy?
ED: Well, we don’t have any out and out favourites but if forced to chose I’d mention interconnect wise our Nu Diva and Maestro MA2 for analogue, Producer and Director for Digital. Loudspeaker cable-wise you can’t go far wrong with our CS2.3, ES4.45 biwire and at the top end our MS2.3 Monocrystal cable and our state of the art Super Monocrystal SMS2.4. Oh, and power chord wise people rave about our Big Red Powerchords.
