Our Thoughts RADAR AI

Against 65 comparable used listings, the €1,869 median and €844 lower quartile put €399 firmly below the 25th percentile—an excellent bargain if this is genuinely the XL model in working order. It is priced like a quick-sale opportunity rather than a typical example, so the asking figure looks very attractive.

The XL is Transparent’s substantial, high-current, filtered power cable, aimed at resolving systems where lower noise, composure, and easier musical flow matter; its two-metre standard length is also practical. At this price, it is worth pursuing, particularly if the filtering network and terminations are intact. Check the exact mains plug and IEC fit for your equipment, confirm there is no damage around the heavy cable or moulded network, and ask whether any original packaging or provenance is included. Even without those extras, €399 leaves considerable room versus the used market.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Transparent Audio

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.
