Chord Sarum Super Aray 2x RCA-RCA Cables - 2m The RCA interconnect cable uses micro-polished silver-plated conductors, with a gas-foamed PTFE dielectric and high-density foil and braid combination shielding. Key improvements include the proprietary Super ARAY technology and a PTFE plug surround.
At £1,200, this used The Chord Company SARUM speaker cable sits just above the £1,000 median for recent GBP listings but well below the £1,484 75th percentile, making it a fair and solid value compared to newer Sarum T speaker cables that retail around £1,650 for a 1.5m pair. You avoid the steep entry cost of the current T-series while getting the core SARUM performance that many still prefer for its warm, musical balance.
The SARUM is well-regarded for its smooth top end and rich midrange, delivering a cohesive, natural sound that avoids the sterile precision of some modern alternatives. At this price in excellent condition, it’s a genuine buying opportunity for anyone upgrading from budget cables or seeking a refined, analog-like presentation without overspending. No caveats apply here—this is a clean chance to own a respected cable at a sensible price.

The Chord Company was founded in 1984 in Salisbury, England, born from a serendipitous dinner conversation among Naim Audio retailers visiting from the US. They sought a high-quality DIN-to-RCA interconnect cable, unavailable at the time, prompting Sally Gibb—then married to a Naim executive—to propose crafting them herself. With Naim's endorsement, she launched the venture, naming it for the American term "cord" and its musical resonance, while insisting on fully British design and construction. Early prototypes were tested with Naim expertise, hand-built by friends, establishing a heritage rooted in precision and hi-fi passion from its Wiltshire headquarters near Stonehenge.
The company specializes exclusively in analogue and digital cables, spanning interconnects, speaker wires, power cords, and tonearm cables across performance tiers from entry-level C-series to flagship Leyline ranges. Unlike brands delving into amplifiers, speakers, or DACs, Chord focuses intently on signal integrity, employing advanced shielding, conductor materials, and geometry to minimize noise and preserve dynamics—catering to systems from budget setups to ultra-high-end rigs.
Renowned as a high-end boutique leader in the cable market, The Chord Company commands respect among discerning audiophiles for delivering exceptional value, transparency, and build quality that punches above its price. Its steady growth and international acclaim affirm a niche position: not vintage or mid-tier, but a go-to for upgrades that reveal system potential without ostentation.
