Offered is „Audio Note Japan Operia SPs-2.7 Speaker cables 2x 3.5m“ by Kondo 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 7162185469 ends on 27.11.2026 at 23:14 o'clock.
A €4,480 ask is a genuine bargain against the current new-price context, which sits roughly around €6,400 to €8,000 for comparable lengths and finishes, while the used market data you gave puts this well below the €14,883 median and even under the €3,949–€32,952 interquartile band’s midpoint neighborhood. For a pair of 3.5 m Kondo silver speaker cables, that’s a strong entry point rather than a stretch.
These are highly regarded for the usual Kondo strengths: clarity, tonal purity, and that easy, unforced openness that silver can bring when the rest of the system is up to it. At this price, the appeal is especially strong if the terminations are original and the length suits your setup, because long silver cables from this tier rarely come cheaply; a clean, complete set is the kind of used piece that rewards a fast, confident buy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
# Kondo Audio Note Japan
Kondo Audio Note Japan was founded in 1976 by Hiroyasu Kondo, a metallurgist and son of a Buddhist priest whose technical expertise and philosophical approach to sound reproduction shaped the company's identity. Based in Japan, the brand has maintained its independence and commitment to handcrafted manufacturing for nearly five decades, recently adopting the "Kondo" name to reflect its founder's central role in the company's vision and legacy.
The brand is renowned primarily for vacuum-tube amplification, particularly its legendary power amplifiers and preamplifiers. The 1989 Ongaku power amplifier stands as a watershed moment in high-end audio history, establishing Kondo's reputation for sonic refinement and technical innovation. The company also manufactures integrated amplifiers, preamplifiers like the iconic M7 Heritage, and proprietary capacitors—all produced through meticulous, point-to-point hand-wiring and manual assembly processes that prioritize component quality over production volume.
Kondo Audio Note Japan occupies the ultra-premium tier of the hi-fi market, commanding prices that reflect its artisanal manufacturing, exotic component selection, and uncompromising design philosophy. The brand appeals to dedicated audiophiles and collectors who value emotional engagement with music reproduction and are willing to invest substantially in equipment that combines technical excellence with aesthetic and sonic character. Its reputation rests on exclusivity, heritage, and an unwavering commitment to analog-era design principles adapted for contemporary listening.
