One pair of Oyaide PA-02 RCA interconnects, 0.9m in length.Cables are in excellent condition, just not being used. Connectors are the plug in type - not the screw in / WBT locking style.Will package perfectly. Freight at buyer's expense (approx $14.00). No discount at this very low price.
Oyaide PA-02 interconnects are a solid Japanese design from the early 2010s, but with newer Oyaide models like the SW series out for years, this listing's timing isn't a red flag—used PA-02s still hold appeal for their balanced, detailed sound without the premium markup of current gear.
At AUD$99 unknown condition, this is a screaming bargain against our database median of AUD$173 for 11 recent comparable used Oyaide RCAs (25th-75th percentile: AUD$134-278), undercutting even low-end sales by 25-40%. No need for external benchmarks; it's priced to move fast. Before biting, verify connector integrity—check for bent RCA pins or oxidation on the PCOCC copper conductors, common after a decade—and confirm both ends' strain relief aren't cracked. Original packaging or boxes aren't essential, but ask for close-up pics of plugs and any serials to spot fakes.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Oyaide Electric traces its roots to 1952, when founder Kazuji Oyaide (also referred to as Katsuji Oyaide) opened a modest electrical wires shop in Tokyo's Akihabara district. Initially focused on magnet wires and industrial cables, the company incorporated in 1971 and pivoted fully to specialty wires by the mid-1970s, abandoning home appliance sales amid Japan's economic boom. A pivotal shift came in the 1980s, spurred by audio critic Saburo Egawa's insights on wire quality, leading to Oyaide's first audio products like the OR-800 speaker cable and OCB-1 power distribution box.
Oyaide specializes in high-performance audio cables and accessories, including interconnects, speaker cables, power cords, distribution blocks, connectors, and turntable components. Under presidents Satoru Murayama from 2000 and later Naoko Murayama, the brand expanded through strategic partnerships with expert manufacturers, emphasizing oxygen-free copper litz structures and precision engineering—all made in Japan.
Renowned among audiophiles for meticulous craftsmanship and the "genuine Japanese spirit," Oyaide occupies a solid niche in the mid-tier to upper-mid market, offering reliable upgrades without extravagant pricing. Its products enjoy a cult following in Japan and abroad for enhancing system clarity and dynamics, positioning it as a go-to for discerning buyers seeking value-driven Japanese precision over luxury exotica.
