A custom length of LFD Audio Reference Silver Bi-wire speaker cable with extra cost gold plated solid copper spade connection option. Solid silver multi diameter solid core construction. sounds similar to siltech but is better value. Was £4200.00 new. S/Hand
This is a timing-sensitive but not vintage-rare buy: with recent comparable used listings clustering around £214 median and £202 at the 25th percentile, £2,373 is far above the normal used market and reads as ambitious rather than collectible or opportunistic. Even allowing for an excellent condition example, the asking price is so far over the benchmark that it needs a very unusual justification to make sense.
That said, LFD cable is generally respected for low-loss, high-quality build and a naturally transparent, controlled presentation, so the product itself is not the issue. For a buyer, the key upside is only if this is a complete, original, well-preserved set with the exact specification you need; otherwise, the premium looks hard to defend against the modest recent used pool.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
LFD Audio, a boutique British hi-fi manufacturer, traces its origins to 1987 in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex, England. Founded by Dr. Richard Bews, a PhD student of Professor Hawksford—who pioneered influential audio research groups—the brand embodies a commitment to minimalist, low-distortion electronics. From its early days, LFD has prioritized hand-assembly by Bews himself, crafting components with painstaking selection of parts for sonic purity over aesthetic flair.
The company focuses primarily on solid-state amplifiers, including long-running integrated models like the LE, Zero Mk III LE, Mistral, and NCSE, alongside specialized gear such as the MCT preamplifier. LFD also produces high-end cables, interconnects, and phono leads, often refined in collaboration with dealers like Unique Audio, which has partnered with them for over 30 years. Their lineup eschews flashy features, turntables, speakers, DACs, or headphones, zeroing in on amplification and cabling as core strengths.
Positioned firmly in the high-end niche, LFD commands a cult following among discerning audiophiles for delivering some of the most natural-sounding solid-state amps available, despite their utilitarian, "butt ugly" appearance. As a low-profile, one-man operation far from mainstream fanfare, it appeals to buyers seeking uncompromised performance in a vintage-inspired, boutique package.
