Transparent Audio

Transparent Audio has designed and hand-built high-end cables in Maine, USA since 1980. Many Transparent cables use network technology tuned to control the cable’s electrical behaviour, with performance levels from Plus and Ultra through Reference and Opus to Magnum Opus.

We carry the Transparent range in NZ: speaker cables, RCA, XLR and phono interconnects, power cords, digital, HDMI, USB and ethernet cables, headphone cables and adapters.

Buying guide & FAQs

Choosing a Transparent level

Match the level to the rest of your system and upgrade the link closest to the source first. Where possible, try cables in your own system before you buy — ask us about a home trial. See also Atlas cables and the Transparent brand page.
