Nordost Valhalla Power Cords

LOL! So your system is VERY similar to Earl's!! Do you also have a VPI/Dynavector analog front end?

I think, it is System depending, some Designs react more, some less. I listened to Nordost ODIN power cords and I heard no improvement (with Lamm Tube amps) which justified their pricing.

John, although our systems are Very similar they're not identical. What can I say? ... I guess Earl enjoys coming over to listen to music as much as I enjoy having him.

The differences in our rooms have the biggest impact on the sound of his system vs. mine. I'm only running a digital front-end. The EMM's DAC2/TDS1 performance is quite considerable over Earl's EMM single-box. I'm also using a Finite Elemente Reference rack which is an improvement over the Zoethecus he is using at this time.

Back to the Valhalla P.C.s. I STRONGLY recommend to others that you try these in your system. I would not have thought a P.C. could have this kind of an impact a system's sound. Can only imagine how good the Odin must be!

enjoy,
Tom

Very much enjoying Valhalla in my system (PC and interconnects). They bring me closer to real music...

I just added a second Valhalla power cord to my Esoteric D-05. The first Valhalla went on the Esoteric P-05......and I will tell you that is does add some speed and clarity. The rest of my system is wired with Purist Audio's 20th Anniversary IC's, digital and speaker cables....the power cords are PAD's Limited Edition's.....very happy with the change and this mixture of brands. Wondering how one of the Valhalla's would work on the Esoteric clock ????
