Offered is „NBS BLACK LABEL II XLR ANALOG INTERLINK NEUTRIK TERMINATION“ by NBS Cables as second-hand device from the category „XLR-Cable (Analog)“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 1741589275 ends on 10.12.2026 at 02:25 o'clock.
In good condition, this is still an ambitious ask: €2,150 sits well above the 17-listing market’s €771 median and €985 75th percentile, and is more than double the upper quartile. It is not a bargain on used-market evidence; the seller would need exceptional length, provenance, or completeness to justify that premium.
The Black Label II XLR is a serious, handmade NBS interconnect, valued for high resolution, coherent imaging, natural tone, and strong midrange presence. Its flexible stress-relief sections are useful in a cable that can otherwise be physically stiff. That said, “good” condition alone does not make €2,150 compelling: verify the exact pair length, Neutrik termination, original packaging, provenance, and connector condition. At this price, patience or negotiation is warranted.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
# NBS Audio Cables
NBS Audio Cables was founded in the mid-1990s by Walter Fields, a designer and entrepreneur based in Edina, Minnesota. The company's name stands for "Nothing But Signal," a philosophy that has guided its product development from inception. While specific founding details are limited in available sources, the brand has maintained continuous operations for over three decades, establishing itself as a Made in USA manufacturer with a European distribution presence.
NBS specializes exclusively in audio interconnects and speaker cables, positioning itself firmly within the high-end segment. The company's design approach emphasizes signal retrieval rather than sound coloration, employing solid-core copper conductors with unconventional silver shielding to minimize radio frequency and electromagnetic interference. Their cable lineup ranges from entry-level professional models to ultra-premium offerings like the Professional IV speaker cables, which retail at premium price points reflective of their market positioning.
NBS occupies a niche but respected position in the high-end audio market, particularly among discerning audiophiles and valve equipment enthusiasts. The brand has garnered positive reviews in specialized publications and maintains a loyal following among those who prioritize signal purity and minimal noise floor. While not a household name, NBS commands respect within boutique audio circles for its uncompromising engineering philosophy and commitment to domestic manufacturing, appealing to buyers willing to invest significantly in cable quality as a critical system component.
