At A$210, this used Chord Electronics CLEARWAY RCA cable sits well above the typical Australian used market, where the median asking price is A$124 and the 75th percentile tops out at A$170. The listing is ambitious, exceeding the upper quartile by roughly 24%, so it only justifies this premium if the condition is truly excellent and it includes original accessories or a warranty.
The CLEARWAY remains a top-tier analogue cable, widely praised for its balanced clarity and low noise, making it a solid upgrade for serious RCA connections. If this is genuine original-owner stock in pristine shape with no wear on the connectors, it could still be a worthwhile buy for enthusiasts who value Chord’s build quality, but at A$210 you’re paying for confidence rather than a bargain.

Chord Electronics, a British high-fidelity powerhouse, traces its roots to the aviation industry. Founded in 1989 by John Franks, a former Marconi Avionics engineer, the company emerged from his early 1980s innovations in ultra-reliable, high-frequency switching power supplies for aircraft electronics. Initially too costly for commercial viability, the designs became feasible with advancing components, launching Chord from its Kent headquarters in a renovated pumphouse that remains its manufacturing heart.
The brand excels in premium amplifiers and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), blending Franks' analog prowess with digital expertise from FPGA specialist Rob Watts. Early power amplifiers quickly won acclaim from professional studios like the BBC, Abbey Road, and Skywalker Sound, establishing credibility before shifting focus to consumer hi-fi. Iconic products like the Hugo and Mojo DACs exemplify their boundary-pushing approach, alongside integrated amps and streamers, all handcrafted in the UK without compromise on power, precision, or musicality.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Chord commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its uncompromising engineering, aerospace-grade reliability, and bold innovation. Independent and proudly British, it sets benchmarks in transparency and dynamics, attracting buyers who demand reference-level performance over mass-market concessions.
