Oyaide 102 SSC Interconnect Cables (RCA) Excellent pair of Oyaide RCA interconnects - 0.7 metres. Full model number is 102SSC PA-02TR v2. Selling as a system restructure required a longer length before they were received. These cables have not been used other than to check condition. Condition: As New / Mint Payment Method: As agreed Region/State: (SA) South Australia/Australia By gemini07 0 Comments AUD $119 Date: December 1, 20241 yr
A$119 is fair-to-good rather than a steal: it’s exactly on the listed used asking level for a like-new pair, and below new retail at A$165, so you’re not overpaying for the condition. If the market around this model is thin where you are, that makes A$119 even more reasonable.
What makes it worth a look is the Oyaide house sound: the 102 SSC conductor is the brand’s well-regarded high-purity copper recipe, so this is the sort of cable people buy for clean build quality and a polished, low-noise presentation rather than hype. In like-new shape, the upside is simple: you get a premium Japanese cable with minimal wear risk and likely full life left, which is exactly where second-hand cable buys make the most sense.

Oyaide Electric traces its roots to 1952, when founder Kazuji Oyaide (also referred to as Katsuji Oyaide) opened a modest electrical wires shop in Tokyo's Akihabara district. Initially focused on magnet wires and industrial cables, the company incorporated in 1971 and pivoted fully to specialty wires by the mid-1970s, abandoning home appliance sales amid Japan's economic boom. A pivotal shift came in the 1980s, spurred by audio critic Saburo Egawa's insights on wire quality, leading to Oyaide's first audio products like the OR-800 speaker cable and OCB-1 power distribution box.
Oyaide specializes in high-performance audio cables and accessories, including interconnects, speaker cables, power cords, distribution blocks, connectors, and turntable components. Under presidents Satoru Murayama from 2000 and later Naoko Murayama, the brand expanded through strategic partnerships with expert manufacturers, emphasizing oxygen-free copper litz structures and precision engineering—all made in Japan.
Renowned among audiophiles for meticulous craftsmanship and the "genuine Japanese spirit," Oyaide occupies a solid niche in the mid-tier to upper-mid market, offering reliable upgrades without extravagant pricing. Its products enjoy a cult following in Japan and abroad for enhancing system clarity and dynamics, positioning it as a go-to for discerning buyers seeking value-driven Japanese precision over luxury exotica.
