How's about £1,183 for what otherwise is an 80p kettle cable ?

Reduced from £1,315 !!!!!! Buy now while stocks last.

But it does have "very low mains impedance"

I made my own 'designer' mains lead for a Cambridge Audio CD player,
using a length of braided 'iron' flex from a small electric shop, a
right-angle IEC connector from the local Maplin's, and an MK mains
plug I had spare (one of the proper ones with 'wraparound' terminals
and no loose bits, that you can't get in the shops any more). Looked
expensive, cost less than £10!

But does it have a low mains impedance?
It's wot matters you know

I think that the usp of the Russ Andrews Superkord is that the number of
conductors, coupled with the SawyerDiscs, also means that the cable has the
best interference-rejecting properties of any of their cables, bringing
significant upgrades to CD players, DVD players, tuners, turntables and
preamps too. IMHO, well worth the modest outlay of £1323 for a two metre
cable.

Indeed. It's a small price to lay out to win a million dollars:
