Audioquest or Nordost for speaker cable


I have all Nordost IC but have been impressed by Audioquest power cable and am thinking of changing my speaker cables to Audioquest Thunderbird zero. I currently have Nordost Heimdall. Do you think that’s a good idea, Thanks.

About a year ago I wanted to upgrade my cables.  I had a full loom of Audioquest Dragon and Nordost Valhalla 2 to test.  Over 4-5 days i went back and forth, but neither loom was giving me the balance that i was looking for.  I found the Nordost loom too dry and no warmth.  I liked its detail, but I wasn’t engaged with the music.  With the AQ I loved the bass and the fullness of the sound, but it didn't give me the detail I wanted.  Despite everyone advising me to go with a full loom I decided on the AQ Dragon on all power cords and the Valhalla 2 on my XLR’s.  I already had the AQ Thunderbird Zero speaker cables.  It worked spectacularly!  Im demoing Speaker Cables now to see what my next upgrade will be.  Good luck!
