Tyr 2 vs Valhalla v2

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.

"They both are another world upgrade from blue heaven which i already have."

skrymar-that had to be a significant jump. I was so pleased with just replacing some ancient BH speaker cables to Heimdall II, I replaced everything from the wall and IC's to H2 in my modest setup.

My system can't  justify going higher, but yours clearly would.

Good luck, and don't tell the wife how much you've spent$$

Jperry thx for the input here, im afraid its just gonna be better with the Valhalla v2, 

might be better idea get tyr 2 louspeaker cables, and than still afford the valhalla 2 power cable ? (as pr today i have no special power cable at all)

might be a better upgrade than gong for valhalla v2 speaker cables and than not can afford the power cables..

realy nice setup you have there man, and a cool looking room aswel.
Mancave delux.


Tablejockey: yea it was a dramatic lift when changing from old blue heaven series to the Frey 2 and Tyr 2..  Even wife heard clear upgrades, and she have spend less than 5 hours listen to my setup. and not intrested at all..  i did a blind test on her, telling all cables was around the same price. and she didnt know which i even had from before. voices clearer and instrument more natural. More details.

hehe no i cant tell her prices on this stuff... havnt bought cables yet though.. only borrowed them. but there gonna be a change.

Skrymar,
A group of us attended a Nordost demo at a local shop.  The Nordost rep was great and really didn't try to play games.  He did a complete power cable comparison on the CD player only-keeping all else equal on this $50k system.
The stock cord to the Blue Heaven was a huge jump.  Then going up to the Red Dawn was another huge jump.  Here's where things digress:  If money was no object, the Valhalla was another noticible jump in quality.  My problem was in between.  The Frey & Tyr went kind of sideways.  They had a different sound.  Can't say bad but not congruent with the rest to us.  You need to listen.  I'd take the Red Dawn or Blue Heaven over them.
