“I may stick with Nordost interconnects - Norse level Heimdall.”
There are certainly better options than pouring money into Nordost cable lineup below TYR2, IME.
Well, here is where I'm at, if I go with used cables. I know Nordost are a good, fairly consistent, match with Conrad Johnson amps and preamps. I've read numerous post on the CJ users website regarding interconnects. I current have Red Dawn speaker cables. Some consider these a sweet spot in the Nordost speaker cable lineup. Obviously, the higher end Nordost are much better and cost two times as much. Unfortunately, they are not within my budget or system's requirements. I'm not running a 20K amp etc. lalitk mentioned better interconnects are available at the Heimdall 2 RCA used price point. Any real life comparisons or feedback on this topic? |
Please refer to @williewonka post. I will also add Sternklang IC’s to that list. I’ve used Nordost Frey 2, TYR 2, Audio Envy, Zavfino, Sternklang and HIJIRI. Synergy is every thing, if you’re confident that Nordost matches well with CJ gear, then that pretty much settles it. If you’re open to trials, then consider AE - Prestige and Zavfino - Fusion and let your ears guide you. |
