Well after 2 unanswered emails, I give Nordost a big FAIL in the customer response column.
Ordered some Neutrik NF2C-B2’s which were the Nordost OEM for this 1st run II version. I bought 2 pair for $54.96 including shipping, which probably saved me at least $100 +and hassle of an official Nordost repair(if I ever DID get an RA#).
Thought about getting WBT’s, but after looking at price, way out of my price tolerance.
You can’t buy 1 real WBT RCA for the price of 4 MIC’s which look ALMOST identical to ones used on my 1st gen Heimdall IC’s.
