Angeboten wird „Niagara 5000“ von AudioQuest als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Netzfilter“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 4940828734 endet am 05.07.2026 um 12:27 Uhr.
Listed as "good" condition, this €2,990 ask for an AudioQuest Niagara interconnect feels wildly ambitious—it's well above typical used market values. Comparable 1m RCA pairs in very good shape have traded for €700-1,000 recently, with even new 0.5m versions retailing around €1,300; longer or XLR variants push MSRP higher but depreciate sharply to 30-50% off on the secondhand scene. At this price, you're paying flagship premiums for what sounds like average wear.
Before biting, verify the exact length, termination (RCA or XLR?), and DBS battery status—those 72V packs drain over time and need replacement (€100-200 each), a common failure point that kills the "magic" without warning. Confirm original box, paperwork, and no kinks or oxidation on the solid-core conductors; test in-system for noise or channel imbalance, as Niagaras age unevenly after 10-15 years.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Founded in 1980 by Bill Low in Irvine, California, AudioQuest traces its roots to 1978, when Low, a hi-fi store manager and avid enthusiast, began crafting superior audio cables to overcome the signal degradation he observed in existing products. Dissatisfied with subpar materials and construction, he prioritized advanced conductors like 6N copper, innovative insulation, and precise geometries, quickly earning acclaim after demos at events like the 1979 Summer CES. This passion-driven origin propelled AudioQuest from a cable innovator—first U.S. company to advance signal transmission in 1985—to a global force in high-performance audio.
While renowned for its expansive lineup of analog, digital, and AC power cables, including HDMI for video, AudioQuest has broadened into USB DACs and headphone amps, highlighted by the multi-award-winning DragonFly series launched in 2012. The brand also offers Niagara and PowerQuest power conditioners, alongside custom-install solutions, all engineered to maximize system fidelity without venturing into amplifiers, speakers, or turntables.
AudioQuest commands a premium position in the high-end market, supplying thousands of specialist retailers across 60 countries as the dominant cable provider for discerning audiophiles. Its relentless innovation, from conductor purity to dielectric design, delivers tangible performance gains, cementing a reputation for value and musicality that serious hi-fi buyers trust.
