Price trend

Sold or Listed Prices

6 market transactions via web search — not HiFi Registry sales.

Understanding the market

Half of recorded transactions fall between $55 and $60. The full range is tight — lowest to highest is only 1.1×, which suggests these units trade in a well-established band and condition moves price less than it does for many models.

What buyers should know

Confirm the terminations are intact and have not been re-soldered, and check the length matches your needs, since cables are difficult to resell in unusual lengths. Counterfeit cable from well-known brands is a real risk — buy from sellers who can establish provenance.

This range reflects 6 recorded sales, compiled from publicly listed and completed sales elsewhere on the used market, not from HiFi Registry transactions. That is enough to establish a working range, but not enough to be precise — treat it as a guide rather than an appraisal.
