nordost heimdall speaker cable

I bought this cable a week ago and have been playing it non stop. It has about 170-175 hours on it. it has settled down a little but I find the cymbals have a slight edge to them. How long will it take to take the edge off or is it a characteristic of this cable? Thanks.

When I hear a little edge to the highs with my Frey SC I give them a wipe down with Eco3. Any antistatic spray should also work.

The Heimdall Series 1 does not sugar coat anything, if you system has some edge, that will show through. I have read that the Series 2 are a bit more forgiving.
Agreed +1 - Did an in home demo and the Series 2 are also more liquid and warmer sounding. My Tyr 2 Ic's should be here tomorrow.

But I have the Frey's at at times (especially with recordings that do have an edge) The Eco3 helps. Not earth shattering but it does help a bit. Better recordings then sound better. That being said I only treat the cables every month or so.
