Offered is „Creascendo“ by Straight Wire as second-hand device from the category „Speaker Cable“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 3807636931 ends on 12.11.2026 at 12:29 o'clock.
At €990, this sits well above the current typical used market for this item: against a median of €619 and a 75th percentile of €826, it looks ambitious rather than fair. It is not in bargain territory, so the case for buying needs to come from exceptional length, terminations, or unusually strong condition rather than price alone.
That said, Straight Wire’s better speaker cables have a solid reputation for clean, controlled delivery and a mature, refined presentation, so the right system match can justify paying up. If the set is complete and genuinely well cared for, the main upside is avoiding retail pricing on a cable many enthusiasts already regard as a serious step-up piece; just make sure the configuration and connectors are exactly what you need before paying this premium.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Straight Wire is an American cable specialist founded by Steven Hill, with roots in Hollywood, Florida and a history that the company traces back to a garage startup. Its own materials and distributor descriptions place it among the early names in audiophile cabling, and it has built a long-running identity around performance-focused wire rather than full-system electronics.
The brand is primarily known for audio and AV cables: interconnects, speaker cables, HDMI leads, custom-install wiring, and related termination hardware. Its product lines have included a wide range of named cable families for stereo and home-theater use, with an emphasis on signal transfer, flexibility, and installation-friendly design. Straight Wire is not a maker of amplifiers, speakers, turntables, DACs, or headphones.
In the market, Straight Wire sits in the niche high-end cable segment rather than the mainstream component business. It is best understood as a specialist brand for audiophiles, custom installers, and home-theater users who want established, American-made cable products from a company with decades of continuity. Its reputation is solid but focused: respected in its category, especially among buyers who prioritize cable design and system matching over flashy hardware branding.
