  We measure the excitation spectrum of a dipolar Chromium Bose Einstein
Condensate with Raman-Bragg spectroscopy. The energy spectrum depends on the
orientation of the dipoles with respect to the excitation momentum,
demonstrating an anisotropy which originates from the dipole-dipole
interactions between the atoms. We compare our results with the Bogoliubov
theory based on the local density approximation, and, at large excitation
wavelengths, with numerical simulations of the time dependent Gross-Pitaevskii
equation. Our results show an anisotropy of the speed of sound
