Tyr 2 vs Valhalla v2

"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.

"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."

elevick- I too have sat through a couple of Nordost sessions. I agree, once the stock cable is replaced with BH, things in between became increasingly subtle, until Valhalla/Odin.

That said, Heimdall works out as the "go to" for my midfi gear. Starting with BH, the power cord is the best buy. For the rest of the cables, Heimdall gets the "trickle down" from Valhalla.

If my system were top notch, I wouldn’t hesitate to go V/O.

thx all for inputs..

seems like im falling on the choice to get the Valhalla v2 speaker cables and power cable.  I havnt heard them or have no chance to hear them before buying.  i hope its gonna be a good jump up from the Tyr2 s..

i realy liked the grand slam the tyr 2 has. hope valhalla have the same punch.
