Offered is „Ortofon Reference 905-Silver RCA 905 Silver High End Cinchkabel Cinch RCA Neu 1m“ by Ortofon as new device from the category „Cinch Cable (Analog)“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9198205112 ends on 19.12.2026 at 09:31 o'clock.
At €439, the obvious alternative is buying a newer mainstream interconnect, but this is a strong deal against the used market: it sits well below the €636 median and above the €204 lower quartile, so it is not quite a bargain but clearly attractive for a high-end silver cable. It is also close to current new-stock pricing around €449, making the listing especially compelling if genuinely unused and complete.
The Reference 905 Silver is a serious, discontinued RCA interconnect built around pure-silver conductors, substantial shielding, and rhodium-plated connectors. Its appeal is a clean, transparent presentation with plenty of detail and focus, particularly useful in a revealing system that benefits from extra openness. At this price, check that the full 1 m pair, original packaging, and undamaged plugs are included; otherwise, a clean example looks like a worthwhile buy rather than an inflated cable listing.

Ortofon: A Century of Precision Sound
Ortofon traces its lineage to October 9, 1918, when Danish engineers Axel Petersen and Arnold Poulsen founded the Electrical Phono Film Company in Copenhagen. The name itself derives from Greek, meaning "correct sound"—a philosophy that has guided the company's trajectory for over a century. Initially focused on synchronized sound film technology, Ortofon pivoted to audio reproduction after 1945, when the superior recording quality of new cutting equipment revealed the inadequacy of existing playback systems. This gap sparked the development of the pioneering Ortofon mono pickup in 1948, establishing the foundation for the company's future dominance.
Today, Ortofon is the world's largest manufacturer of magnetic cartridges for phonograph turntables, producing approximately 500,000 units annually. The company's product portfolio centers exclusively on phono cartridges—both moving magnet and moving coil designs—with over 300 distinct models developed since 1948. This singular focus reflects deep specialization rather than diversification, positioning Ortofon as a micro-mechanical specialist rather than a broad-based audio manufacturer.
Ortofon occupies the high-end segment of the audio market, commanding respect among vinyl enthusiasts and professional studios alike. The brand benefits from Denmark's established reputation for acoustic engineering and industrial design, supported by in-house research and development. For discerning turntable owners, Ortofon cartridges represent the gold standard—a heritage brand whose century-long commitment to cartridge excellence remains unmatched in the industry.
