Black Rhodium Stream High Current power cable (UK) in excellent condition (1.6m)
This is worth paying attention to now rather than waiting for a newer generation, because the Stream has long been a well-regarded design and there isn’t an obvious replacement-model penalty here. At £295, it looks like a strong deal against the recent used market: well below the £648 lower quartile and far under the £651 median, so the pricing is comfortably in bargain territory.
What makes it appealing is that the cable is known for a refined, controlled presentation with good transparency, speed, and low listening fatigue, rather than the usual “hi-fi” showpiece effect. A clean excellent-condition example at this level is the sort of buy that makes sense for someone who already likes the Black Rhodium house sound. The main thing to confirm is the exact length and plug format, since those details matter more than usual in power cables.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Black Rhodium traces its roots to 1975, when founder Graham Nalty entered the hi-fi industry as a loudspeaker demonstrator and retailer before transitioning into cable design. The company formally adopted the Black Rhodium name in 2002, consolidating decades of engineering expertise developed under Nalty's direction. Based in Derby in the UK Midlands, the brand represents a distinctly British approach to audio cable manufacturing with a heritage spanning over five decades.
The company specializes exclusively in audio and visual cables, positioning itself as a comprehensive solution provider across interconnects, speaker cables, and mains leads. Black Rhodium is recognized for pioneering Deep Cryogenic Treatment in cable manufacturing, which they introduced in 2004, alongside innovations including palladium wire interconnects, the VS-1 Vibration Stabiliser, and triple-screening technology for RFI rejection. Their product range spans four tiers—from the Intro Range through to premium offerings—ensuring accessibility across budget levels.
Black Rhodium occupies a respected niche within the high-end and mid-tier segments, earning numerous industry awards for cable design and performance.
