Cardas Clear Cygnus power cable (Schuko) - 2m. In condition as new.
Timing matters here because this is an older, established Cardas line rather than a current-gen “new toy” purchase, so value depends mostly on condition and termination rather than model freshness. At kr 5,500 SEK, it lands around fair-to-good used money for a Clear Cygnus power cord; comparable new/open-box asking prices sit much higher, and used examples of Cardas Clear-level cables commonly trade in the low-to-mid thousands of SEK equivalent rather than anything close to retail.
What makes it worth a look is the Cardas house sound: these cords are usually bought for smoothness, density, and a quieter, more fleshed-out presentation rather than hype or etched detail. If the plug ends are clean, the cable has no kinks or hard bends, and it includes the right connectors for your gear, this is the kind of cable that can be a long-term keeper. I’d treat kr 5,500 SEK as a sensible buy if the length and terminations suit your system.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Cardas Audio traces its roots to 1987, when George Cardas founded the company in Southern California, initially operating from a family garage in Ontario. Driven by a quest to perfect audio cables, he pioneered designs using ultra-pure materials, Golden Ratio resonance control, and solutions to transmission line issues. In 1992, the operation relocated to Bandon, a coastal town on Oregon's southern shore, where it remains headquartered and family-run, with George's daughter Angela now at the helm.
The brand specializes in premium audio cables, connectors, and component parts, emphasizing handmade craftsmanship and proprietary conductor geometries that minimize noise and resonance. While cables form the core—spanning interconnects, speaker wires, and power cords—Cardas has expanded to accessories, in-ear monitors, and even music releases, with their wire integrated into high-end speakers and electronics worldwide.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audiophile market, Cardas commands respect among discerning listeners, recording studios, and musicians for delivering transparent, fatigue-free sound. Their products grace the finest systems, embodying American ingenuity and a relentless pursuit of sonic purity that appeals to knowledgeable buyers seeking boutique excellence over mass-market compromises.
