The audio cable market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.11 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing adoption of high-end audio equipment, the rise of home entertainment systems, the expansion of the gaming industry, and consumers seeking personalized and tailored audio solutions. Additionally, the growing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) contributes to this growth. Major trends during the forecast period include support for high-resolution audio, continued advancements in wireless audio transmission technologies, innovations in materials and construction techniques for audio cables, and the integration of smart features. There is also notable integration with augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) systems.
The growth of the music and entertainment industry is expected to drive the expansion of the audio cable market. This industry includes the creation, production, distribution, and consumption of music, films, television shows, live performances, and other entertainment forms. Technological advancements, the rise of streaming platforms, innovative marketing strategies, and a growing demand for diverse and immersive entertainment experiences are contributing to the industry's growth. Audio cables are essential in the music and entertainment sectors as they ensure high-quality sound transmission across various audio components, allowing for precise and consistent audio delivery during live performances, studio recordings, and personal music production. For example, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, a UK-based organization representing the global recording industry, reported a 10.2% increase in recorded music revenues in 2023, primarily driven by the growth in paid streaming subscribers. Hence, the music and entertainment industry's expansion is propelling the audio cable market's growth.
Major companies in the audio cable market are developing tunable audio and speaker cables to meet the increasing demand for customizable sound experiences. These tunable cables enable users to adjust parameters such as frequency response, impedance, and capacitance, offering greater control over audio output.
