Nordost users....time to upgrade!

We Nordost users like this pricey, cool looking brand for various reasons.

Odin II is known as the "final stop" for ultra setups. It is now 2nd tier  to the latest.
I've tried it in my system. Everyone should demo it if they get the chance. 

Just when you thought Odin was already over the top....Odin GOLD! Complete with gold plated conductors.

We're talking $200K+ to get a basic setup: 2 monoblocks, preamp, speakers and JUST ONE SOURCE!

I guess when you can roll big...YOU ROLL BIG! For some reason, this brings to mind Eastern Bloc track suit guy that annoyingly revs his Koenigsegg at a stoplight, as the target demographic?

Makes my Heimdall/Frey setup seem like the supplied cables you leave in the box.

Wow!

I've listen to Odin II, We matched the quality for around 400.00 with ribbons and weaves. The only thing missing other than our ribbon cables looked different was the wooden weight blocks with a name burnt in. We didn't use CHEAP gold plated connection, or shrink tube with Odin II printed on it.

We used silver plated red copper terminal ends.. The one thing that drove the cost up. Much better terminal ends and they were a cold welded. 

Polishing the silver is optional..

 @tablejockey  Now that's some bling!!! I would imagine that some lucky lad has convinced his better half that these need to be in his listening room, overlooking his garage full of Ferrari's and Lambo's.

If I am in the market for cables that not only sound great (subjective) but look exquisite, my money would go to Kimber Naked Series.

A closer inspection will tell you, the Naked series is built with lot of pride and passion. And they are not ridiculously expensive as Nordost Odin II Gold :-)
