Offered is „Reference MM2 XLR interconnects 15 feet / 4.5m“ by Transparent Audio as second-hand device from the category „XLR-Cable (Analog)“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 5751438999 ends on 18.10.2026 at 06:03 o'clock.
Compared with a typical used pair of full-range speakers at this money, this is priced like a cable, not like a full-system expense, and that makes it stand out immediately. Against your own market anchor, €3,495 sits below the 25th percentile of €3,660, versus a median of €3,819 and a 75th percentile of €3,978, so this reads as a strong deal rather than just fair value.
Transparent’s Reference line is well regarded for scale, control, and a very low-noise, highly resolved presentation, so the appeal is not just the brand name but the performance ceiling. In good condition, the upside is especially attractive if the run is complete and ready to drop into a serious system; at this level, a clean, well-kept example should be treated as a buying opportunity, not a project.
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.
