Cardas or Nordost for Simaudio/Magico

@audphile1    +1   Do you believe the Frey 2 is the sweet spot of the Norse series, or should one go all out with the Valhalla 2 and be done?

Haven’t heard Valhalla in my system but…Frey 2 is better than Heimdall 2 and Tyr 2 is better than Frey 2. So each step up the line gives you a more refined sound, better details and lower noise floor. I can’t imagine Valhalla not beating Tyr 2. 
But as I said earlier, it’s system dependent. For me personally a full loom of any cable manufacturer never worked. At some point you end end with too much of a good thing. It’s important to balance it all in this case using different cables. 

Swede58 tyr to Valhalla is a huge difference.And Frey to Tyr is also huge on my own experience.

I don’t own Valhalla but I always hear them at axpona.

While I don’t find lower tier Nordost harsh or shiny... I also don’t find them to be overall that good. However, upper tier Valhalla.... excellent  ... Odin 2 absolutely best of  class and perhaps the best available.
