Nordost Cables

I have recently changed over my amps from a valve set up to chip amps and need a new Interconnect. I currently have an Audionote IC and it leaves the sound a little too bright especially on bad CDs. I have borrowed a Nordost Frey and like what it does, although the blue Heaven lost too much detail in comparison. Unfortunately I can't afford a new wiring loom or a $1,000 IC at the moment.

Anyone any experience of the Heimdall or Baldur and will they give me something similar ? Would the SPM do the same magic as they appear used at lower costs?

If you like the flatwire concept try the Alpha Core Goertz cables. I had been considering Nordost SPM until I cam across a forum here that discussed these cables. Great value for the dollar. Mine are the Goertz MI-2 Veracity which is copper, but they make a silver version too.

I went from Nordost SPM and Quattrofil to Consonance and lost nothing! Nordost is good stuff but pricing is a killer...I was shocked the inexpensive Consonance matched up as well if not better.

Rink,
I have Andra II's and just heard cables from MIT, Nordost(Red Dawn), Cardas Neutral Reference, Audience Au24, Analysis Plus, and Nirvana S-X Ltd. The best by far are the Nirvanas. The harmonics are outstanding and much richer and truer than any other cable I have heard. The soundstage is well proportioned. Image focus is great. The quality that is hard to describe is the coherency and rightness of the music. The timing is right. Things hang together like a live performance. Overall the best sense of realism. The Andras have never sounded so good. Good luck,

Jim
