Nordost Valhalla RCA vs. Wireworld Platinum Eclips

Sorry to chime in late, but though I’d contribute since I just compared these two.

While I have not tried Valhalla 2, I did recently move from Valhalla 1s to Wireworld Platinum Eclipse 8 in 3 places: 1) Phono Preamp (CI Audio PEQ1> Levinson Ref 32 (RCA) 2) Auralic Vega G2.2 > Levinson Ref 32 (XLR) and 3) Levinson Ref 32 > Levinson 532 Amp ( (XLR). 

In my system the Valhalla was good: clear and transparent but a bit dry and lean.  

In each application the Platinum Eclipse 8 brought out more detail, more transparency and blacker backgrounds. In short, much more you are there rather than you are listening to a good stereo. 
 

YMMV. 

I've been very pleased with my WW Silver Eclipse.  Never heard the Platinum, and probably shouldn't!  :)

@gganaway I agree with your assessment of the Valhalla completely. I had Valhalla at one point, and I noticed the same thing.

OP what speakers and component you have. What cables are you using now.
