Chord C-ScreenX Speaker Cable - Custom Length

 

The C-ScreenX Speaker Cable is a discreet, shielded cable enhanced by Chord's XLPE insulation. The use of shielding in this cable sets it apart from competitors at the same price range. Its small 9mm diameter and flexible white cable make it a good option for audio or home-cinema systems.

 

What Chord say

C-screenX is a shielded speaker cable aimed at both audio and home cinema systems and is a cost-effective upgrade for anyone who wants the best performance on a budget.

Now featuring improved XLPE insulation, it joins the award-winning line-up of Chord Company shielded speaker cables, including the acclaimed ClearwayX, ShawlineX and EpicX/XL.

Chord's design objective was to produce a cable discreet enough for easy fitting and routing, with all the performance benefits that shielding can bring.

C-screenX is just 9mm in diameter and flexible enough to route around corners with ease. It’s finished with a white outer jacket which protects the shielding and makes it virtually invisible against white skirting boards.

 

ChordOhmic Silver-Plated Banana & Spade Plugs

Chords ChordOhmic silver-plated loudspeaker plugs are designed to bring both the electrical and sonic benefits of silver to speaker cables.
Silver-plating not only makes sense from an electrical point of view, it can give an audibly superior result during listening tests, when compared with gold plated connectors. Plugs will also benefit from a major clean, using a good contact cleaner or enhancer.

 

C-screenX features multi-stranded oxygen-free copper conductors, insulated with XLPE and arranged in a twisted-pair configuration to reduce interference. The cable is then enclosed in a PVC casing that reduces mechanical noise and spaces the conductors correctly, relative to the twin-foil shielding.

C-screenX has the same characteristics as Chord's other shielded speaker cables: the ability to carry a musical signal with a genuine sense of musical coherence and involvement; shielded speaker cables bring real performance benefits to both hi-fi and home cinema systems, where interference can seriously affect sound quality.

  • Please note, you need to enter a quantity of 2 for a pair
  • Conductor: High Purity OFC
  • Insulation: XLPE
  • Configuration: Twisted pair
  • Shielding: High-density foil, PVC outer jacket

Termination

Futureshop Approved Chord Ohmic Terminator

This cable is custom-made according to customers specific requirements as selected by the various drop-down options above. Future Shop’s highly experienced engineers professionally terminate Chord Cable’s using their superb silver-plated ChordOhmic plugs.

ChordOhmic is Chord’s new silver-plated termination option designed to bring both the electrical and sonic benefits of silver to your speaker cable. Future Shop terminates Chord speaker cables using Chord’s special HEXGUN. An airtight crimp is applied to the plug creating a secure and protected termination. This is a solder-free, airtight fusion between the cable and plug offering optimum signal transfer, excellent signal quality and perfect long-term performance. Furthermore, the banana plug itself is in contact with the binding post again at 360 degrees. The net effect of this is it maximises the signal transfer from the plug into your equipment and hence a superior performance. When a bare wire is used not all the conductors are in contact with the binding post and as a result, some loss occurs.

In addition to the ChordOhmic plugs, Chord has introduced a 4mm crimp-fit banana plug with premium gold plating, designed for use with the Chord Company Hex-Gun crimp tool. This crimp version ensures reliable and durable connections, providing cost-effective, high-quality performance while reducing resistance and maintaining signal integrity and sound clarity.

Elite Reference Series Plugs: Next-Level Audio Connectivity

The Elite Reference AirTite plugs offer significant advantages over traditional screw-based speaker cable plugs. Unlike screw designs, which may loosen over time and potentially impact the connection and sound quality, the Elite Reference plugs use a cold-weld method to create a secure and reliable bond between the cable and the plug. This helps maintain consistent performance and minimises signal loss, supporting clear and high-quality audio. With a ferrule-free design for direct signal transfer, beryllium copper cores, and 24K gold plating, they are engineered for enhanced conductivity and long-lasting durability. The addition of protective metal barrels further reinforces their professional-grade construction, making them an excellent choice for those who value dependable audio connections.

The Elite Reference plugs are engineered with additional advantages that make them stand out:

  1. AirTite Ferrule-Free Design - Unlike traditional plugs that use ferrules, the Elite Reference plugs opt for direct conductor-to-plug contact, removing any potential barriers to signal transfer. Featuring four different inlet sizes, these plugs are perfectly tailored to fit various cable gauges with a cold-weld, air-tight design, that eliminates soldering, reduces resistance, prevents oxidation, and enhances durability.
  2. Beryllium Copper Core with 24K Gold Plating - The banana plugs feature a beryllium copper core, known for its exceptional mechanical strength and conductivity. This material resists corrosion and retains its shape, maintaining a tight and reliable connection over time. The 24K gold plating ensures a smooth, high-quality signal path while adding durability for years of consistent performance.
  3. Dual Functionality - Designed as BFA and banana plug compatible the Elite Reference banana plugs provide greater versatility, making them suitable for a broader range of speaker terminals. This added functionality ensures compatibility with high-end Hi-Fi setups and equipment.
  4. Silver Core Spade Plugs with Metal Barrel Protection - The spade plugs in the Elite Reference Series incorporate a silver base plated with 24K gold, offering superior conductivity compared to many alternatives. Unlike other spade plugs, the Elite Reference spades also include a durable metal outer barrel, providing additional protection and a premium finish.
  5. The Elite Reference plugs are manufactured in Taiwan, a region renowned for its precision engineering and high-quality manufacturing standards. This ensures that every plug is built to exact specifications, offering exceptional consistency, reliability, and performance.

About The Chord Company Made in United Kingdom

The Chord Company is dedicated to offering excellence in audio and audio visual cable design.

About Chord Company

English cable maker that designs and hand builds in Wiltshire, known for its ARAY conductor technology.

Chord describes its cables as designed and hand built in England, at Amesbury in Wiltshire. The catalogue covers interconnects, speaker cables, power cables, HDMI cables, Burndy cables and accessories. ARAY conductor technology, and its Tuned ARAY refinement, appears across several of the ranges, from analogue interconnects to digital and USB cables.

Read more about Chord Show less

ARAY conductors appear in several ranges

ARAY is Chord's conductor geometry. The Signature digital cables pair it with silver-plated oxygen-free copper conductors, PTFE insulation and silver-plated braid and foil screening. Tuned ARAY is a later development of the same idea and appears in the Epic, Signature, Sarum and Shawline ranges, while ClearwayX carries ARAY.

Power and grounding get the same attention

Chord extends its ARAY work beyond signal cables, with PowerARAY, GroundARAY, PowerHAUS mains products and the PhonoARAY grounding product. ChorAlloy is another named Chord technology. Grounding and mains products work on a different part of the chain from signal cables, so they are the place to look when noise is the problem in your system.

Named ranges from one English maker

The ranges are Leyline, C-series, Clearway, Shawline, Epic, Signature and Sarum T, with ChordMusic as a further line. Chord describes its cables as English design and hand construction, so choosing a range comes down to your budget and your system, not to changing approach.

Why we stock Chord

A lot of our customers own Naim. Naim's DIN inputs need a specific cable that most brands simply do not make, and Chord build them properly, in Wiltshire, by hand. If you are running a Naim system and you want an interconnect that fits it correctly, this is where you end up. We have stocked them since 2007.

AI Review Summary — Generated from 29 Reviews

Customers consistently praise this speaker cable for delivering noticeable sound improvements across various systems, including enhanced clarity, better treble and bass response, and improved instrument separation. The build quality is frequently highlighted as excellent, with well-made connectors and careful packaging. Multiple reviewers emphasize exceptional value for the price point, with some noting it outperforms cables at higher price brackets. Future Shop's service receives universal acclaim for prompt delivery and customization options. A minor concern emerged regarding cable thickness affecting flexibility during installation, and one reviewer noted the cable requires directional orientation and burn-in time for optimal performance. No significant recurring negative themes were identified beyond these isolated observations.

Very pleased with the quality of this product 11 May 2026
Good quality cable at a reasonable price. I certainly noticed the difference in sound, much improved.

Awesome result 20 April 2026
I was recommended this cable to try and tame the shouty top end of my B&W 606 s3 speakers. I had them bi-wired with some 4mm copper. Immediately, I switched to these in a single wire configuration I noticed the difference. The treble was much better, but also so was the bass. Astonishing.

Even my wife noticed. Ordering was easy and delivery was prompt. What's not to like?

Great product and, as usual, great service from Future Shop. This cable really brought my Atmos fronts to life!

Price point perfection 6 November 2025
I bought this cable maybe 8 years ago from F-Shop but had not really taken much interest in it using it to 'fill in' whenever a budget cable was required as a fill in. This all changed at the start of 2025.

I bought a Denon CEOL 7 second-hand from eBay with the intention of building a system all-in with a sub and speakers for £600 or so. This cable quickly secured its place as a great partner for the Denon and a pair of Mission LX2 MK2 speakers. Both the girlfriend and i conducted a number of changes to cables, fuses and plugs with the emphasis being on what sounded best to us. Whilst it was not surprising that this cable at £11/m sounds better than another Chord cable at £5/m, what was unexpected was that when connected to the Denon, it sounds better than Rumour X, which retails at £20/m and was a What hifi award winner.

Compared to the C screen, the Rumour X sounds sort of muddy and bloated, whereas this cheaper cable sounds musical, nimble, and really nicely engaging. When fitted to the CEOL and LX2 set up this cable sounds better than anything else i have so far tested. However, I am hoping to try both Tellurium Blue 2 at some point and maybe Van der Hul Cs122. By that time, I should have a final evaluation in place.

If your amp is in the ballpark of £350 and matched with stand-mount speakers around £200 i would definitely say give this cable a try i think you should find it very musical and enjoyable. The Rumour x clearly fits in better above about £500 (and with £350 speakers to match).

A very nice cable. You won’t get better at this price. I’ve never had an issue with Chord cables, and Future shop have been great, with a prompt delivery.

Excellent value speaker cables 25 March 2025
I opted for the banana plugs at both ends.

Came extremely well packaged and I'm more than happy with the sound through my B&W speakers. Excellent value
