Nordost Valhalla Power Cords

Hi Bo1972,The cobalt power cord is the current top-line a/c cord,kinda exspensive,not as exspensive as the nordost odin!,and the performace of the odin power cord does not justify paying more for it over the tara to me,I will be useing the cobalt a/c on a cd-player,It seems to get great effect there,I guess I been around a while myself,The avalon,mit,spectral, you mentioned,I have had alot of exsperience with myself,liked the avalon speakers,did not like mit cables or spectral,they were just not for me,purist audio design are great cables indeed!,one of the best period!,I wanted the cabolt to match the tara zero gold I/C I have,have you ever listened to this I/c before?,cheers!

The thing I love about the Purist powercables is that the mid freq. are more open. Like a flower what comes to bloom. Low freq are more tight and better defined compared to Nordost. Makes your stage wider and deeper compared to Nordost. People of Nordost always became irritated wenn I said that there synergy of using only Nordost is the biggest bullshit. Purist is also much more musical. Tuesday I will receive the Puist Audio LE 2013 powercable for my Pass labs X250.5

I looked at the Taralabs website.

Hello Bol1972 - I was the original poster of this thread and as I noted ; Nordost Valhalla power cords are a good cords for the right system. They just seemed to thin for me, there was no texture to the music and I lost some of music's rhytham. My whole system is Purist 20th Anniversary's and Canorous cables......but the power cords are all the Limited Edition's. Let me know what you think of the sound when you put the LE on the monster Pass Labs amp.

Hi Bo1972,your description of purist audio design top tier cables sounds like my tast in sound,the extreme series Tara cables do that sound as well,you sound like me,,If you don,t have the mid-range sound right,you have nothing!,If you have profound mids,every thing else falls into place,If its a very good cable.,,I would like to here the cables you have,I have not listened to purist in a long time,,I believe nordost is a good cable,however,It seems its not for you are me,I do not like a analitical sound that comes with some nordost cables,like you said,does not sound like real music,I concur.,,are you mixing cable brands?,I run all Tara so I do not go thru,fix that ,or fix this,to me,seems like you have to make ajustments all the time to balance each sound out,,thats exspensive fighting that war,some people may have to do there cables like that to better there system sound,,I am glad I do not need to do that. cheers!
