Tara Labs RSC Air evolution Interconnect Cables (XLR) It is a 1 mtr pair of Tara Labs RSC Air Evolution XLR. It comes with original box. This cable is transparent and quite open and revealing. Shipping is included in the price. This doesn't include the evo ground box but you could purchase that separately. The Air™ Series and air-tube™ technology from TARA Labs has been at the forefront of audio cable design for nearly 20 years. The Air 1 Interconnect was The Absolute Sound ‘Product of the Year’ and has been one of the best-selling high-end audio cables of all time. Review of Tara Lab
Tara Labs RSC AIR cables sit at the top of the RSC Air line, renowned for their fit, finish, and balanced performance, yet the A$1,400 asking price for this used RSC AIR interconnect is notably ambitious compared to the current used market. Historical data shows original MSRP around A$1,500–A$1,600 (converted from US$995–US$1,095), with typical used sales hovering near A$750–A$900 for similar condition; this listing sits well above the 75th percentile, making it a tough benchmark unless the condition is pristine or includes rare accessories.
That said, if the cable is in original-owner condition with its box and pristine terminations, it remains a worthwhile buy for enthusiasts seeking the top-tier RSC Air experience, known for its locking Teflon-insulated plugs and low noise. The RSC AIR line is well-regarded for its refined, musical sound and excellent build quality, offering meaningful upside for those upgrading from mid-tier cables. At this price, only a flawless listing with verified original ownership justifies the cost; otherwise, buyers should assess whether the condition truly matches the premium ask.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Tara Labs, known formally as The Absolute Reference Audio Labs, traces its origins to 1984 when Australian innovator Matthew Bond founded the company in Sydney. Bond pioneered the first successful single solid-core conductor for audio cables, revolutionizing design with breakthroughs like the Phase II speaker cable in 1988. By 1986, the brand established its manufacturing base in Medford, Oregon, USA, where it has operated ever since under the leadership of president Merrill Bergs, blending Bond's foundational inventions with ongoing refinements.
The company specializes exclusively in high-end audio cables, including interconnects, speaker cables, and subwoofer cables. All products are custom hand-crafted in their Southern Oregon facility using solid-core wire and proprietary technologies such as the ZERO Evolution interconnect and OMEGA speaker cable. Tara Labs emphasizes meticulous, lifetime-guaranteed construction, avoiding diversification into amplifiers, speakers, or other categories.
Positioned firmly in the ultra-premium niche of the hi-fi market, Tara Labs commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its unmatched record of awards, reviews, and innovations over nearly four decades. It leads as a boutique cable authority, hand-crafting reference-grade solutions that reveal subtle nuances in attack, sustain, and high-frequency detail, though recent visibility in magazines has waned following key designer changes.
