Valhalla spkr cable good match Pass and Legacy ?

I have noticed alot of the reviewers use the Nordost Valhalla speaker cables to audtion new equipment.
I have also read that along with all the accloades on that cable that the the Valhalla can sound lean in the bass and the midrange with certain equipment match ups.

There is know where that I know where I can audtion these cables with my equipment(except for the Cable co and I prefer not) and they are rather expensive to purchase even used.

So, I need some help, I own a Pass Labs X350.5 Amp in which I think has a warm sound and a Legacy Focus speakers where again these are not lean sounding , will a Valhalla speaker cable be a thumbs up or a thumbs down with my combo?
Thanks,
ozzy

I have Legacy Focus 20/20s as my rear speakers now (replaced by WHispers in front) with a McCormack DNA-500 amp. When they were front speakers, the best cables I found were from Virtual Dynamics - after break-in they were amazing. Since the Focii are now rears and used only for movies, I no longer require that level of cable to them. The VD's continue to shine even more strongly with my Whispers.

Tried Valhalla and would agree with prior comments - no bottom end in the system. My VDs provide all the speed, etc of the Valhallas with the most balanced, accurate yet musical presentation I have ever heard out of my system.

Good luck!
