Speaker Cables for Sopra 2 & PremaLuna Dialogue


I've had the Sopra 2 for almost a year and the Dialogue integrated for 2. The combo works pretty well IMHO and I'm really enjoying getting back into the hobby. My current speaker cable is bi-wired LAT Int'l SS-1000D which have served me well over the years. I'm looking to upgrade the speaker cables and have narrowed the search to Nordost Heimdall 2 and possibly Acoustic Zen Hologram II. I'm hoping to hear from those with direct experience with these cables - at least with the Sopra 2 if not both amp & speaker.

Thanks in advance and happy listening!!

The Acoustic Zen cables are wamer with good detail, they will sound closed in and lack the excitement of the Nordost.

@audiotroy Troy, I recall you mentioned in the past you’ve had prior experience with Audioquest as well. Where does Audioquest fall in terms of sonics between Acoustic Zen and Nordost? I’m curious if anyone has similar results as me. I dumped Audioquest cables because I felt they dulled the sound. I replaced them with AZ and the AZs were smoother and created richer images (vocalists sounds really great with the Zens). The AZs are more "tube like" and the AQs are more "solid state" like IMO. What say you?
