Tyr 2 vs Valhalla v2

Hi guys 

im on the edge on getting myself n upgrade on loudspeaker cables and power cables. 

Current setup: devialet 250, b&w 800 diamond 2*velodyne dd15+

I have been auiditing frey 2 and tyr 2 loudspeaker cables. 
They both are another world upgrade from blue heaven which i already have. 
The Main differense between the tyr 2 and frey 2 are that the tyr 2 are more punchy in the bass on my setup. If the price difference between tyr and frey is worth IT is discussable. 

The thing i Wonder, how would the Valhalla v2 stand againt tyr 2 (and frey2) loudspeaker cables.

is there anyone out there tested this? My dealer dont have the Valhalla v2 for auditioning.

if anyone have any experience with the powercables frey2, tyr2 and Valhalla v2. Feel Free comment the experiences:)

Here is my experience with the Nordost cable line:

There is improvement as you move up the line.

The power cables make the most difference, followed by interconnect cables, with the speaker cables making a noticeable, but the lease difference.

I made each upgrade after careful comparison to my existing cable. One of the main differences I noticed moving up the Nordost line was a reduction in background noise resulting in a blacker background, and a bigger sound stage.

My system is posted here so you can look at it if you like.

I am currently using V2 speaker cable, V2 power cable, and Tyr 2 interconncts.

I am also using SortFut and SortKones. The SortFut removed a layer of distortion I did not know was there and tightened up the bass.

V2 cable into the the QBase also made a big improvement removing a layer of distortion.

I agree that the SortFut takes time and effort to install. My dealer loaned a set to me and he did not get them back. Too much improvement to return them. If you try them be sure you level the speakers carefully and make sure none of the SortFut are loose.

I borrowed an Odin power cord to try in my QBase 8 and all I can say is that now I want one for my own.
