Offered is „transparent Reference MM2“ by Transparent Audio 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 9216241940 ends on 15.12.2026 at 14:49 o'clock.
In good condition, this is a clean-looking example, but €5,000 is ambitious against the supplied used-market comparables: the median is €3,607, with the 75th percentile at €4,304. Unless this is an unusually long, desirable termination or a particularly recent generation, there should be room to negotiate toward the low-to-mid €4,000s.
The Reference MM2 remains a serious speaker cable, with Transparent’s network intended to improve noise rejection, impedance matching, and composure; it is especially valued for controlled bass, spacious imaging, and effortless dynamics. Check the exact length, high- or low-impedance network version, termination, and whether the original packaging is included, since those details materially affect fit and resale. At €5,000 it is a good product, but not a standout buy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Transparent Audio was founded in 1980 in Saco, Maine, by audio enthusiasts Jack Sumner, Karen Sumner, and Carl Smith, who initially distributed high-end products like the Norwegian Electrocompaniet amplifiers and the iconic Well Tempered Turntable. Evolving from distribution, the company entered manufacturing in the mid-1980s, first with MIT cables before launching its own innovative line in 1993. This heritage of passion-driven innovation has defined Transparent as a pioneer in audio connectivity, with breakthroughs like patented network technology, unique cable geometries, and system-specific calibration introduced in the 1990s.
The brand focuses exclusively on premium cables and related components, including interconnects, loudspeaker cables, digital audio cables, HDMI cables, AC power cords, and power conditioners. Transparent eschews amplifiers, speakers, turntables, DACs, or headphones, concentrating instead on transmission solutions that minimize signal distortion and maximize sonic transparency. Their Reference line, debuted in 1994, established this niche, bolstered by ongoing refinements and an owner-friendly upgrade program.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audiophile market, Transparent commands respect among discerning buyers and professionals for delivering pristine, nuanced sound reproduction in world-class systems. Decades of awards, relentless R&D, and a reputation for pushing cable technology boundaries cement its status as a leader, where cables are treated as equals to components themselves.
