Offered is „Kopfhörer Kabel Cardas Clear 2m - 4-Pin XLR auf Klinke 2x3,5 (Hifiman, Focal u.a.)“ by Cardas Audio as second-hand device from the category „Headphone Cables“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 1954897606 ends on 23.11.2026 at 12:19 o'clock.
€650 looks fair to slightly good for a 2 m Cardas Clear, not a steal but comfortably in the sensible zone. New pricing on the Clear line sat very high, and comparable used Cardas Clear pieces often land around the mid-hundreds of euros, so this isn’t a stretch if the set is complete and genuinely clean.
What makes it attractive is the usual Cardas blend: big tone, strong dimensionality, smooth top end, and enough transparency to still sound resolved rather than syrupy. At this level, the main upside is getting a serious long-term cable from a respected flagship range without paying new-money pain. If the terminations are original and the cable jacket is tidy, this is the kind of used buy that should be enjoyed, not second-guessed.

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.
