Nordost Valhalla Power Cords


.....a question directed to the owners as well as the past owners of these power cords. We do not need to get in - what will it be going on, what are the room dimensions, what music do you listen to etc, etc, etc. Just your thoughts on these power cords...as I have mine and just want to see / hear what you think.

Nordost first only started from 2m with there powercables. We did test some wenn they were cut in two. And yes it changed a lot. Valhalla 1 metre has a different overwhole sound than 2 metre. They said; we never will sell shorter lengts than 2 metres. These days you can get a Valhalla of 1 metre. I guess they prefer money instat of giving the best advice. This is not my way of thinking. Valhalla and Brahma are for preamps and sources fine cables. PAD Aqueous Ann on poweramps is better than Valhalla powercable. I still prefer Valhalla on a source compared to PAD Ann Aqueous. But now I own a PAD LE, I know Valhalla is off the radar for ever. It is so much more complete. It has much more talents what a Valhalla does not have. Wenn we had powercables of about 100 dollar. People always choose the 1.5m over the 1 metre. It was only a little more expensive but better in overwhole sound. And yes it was!
Very Interesting Bo1972,never owned nordost period!I will say that alot of cables out there sound different with different legths,thats nothing new to me,kinda common these days,,eanyway,Bo,what is the performance diference between the purist audio 25th anniversary cable and the limited edition cable?or is it the same?and what is the length of your new a/c cable? was there a sound diference in the length with your new cable?there should be,,1 meter should sound diferent than a 5 meter for sure!happy listening!
I demoed/owned in my system a lot of power cords, as well as, the High Performance PowerLink power cords from Transparent, Mit Oracle, Acrolink 7N-PC7300, Shunyata Anaconda and King Cobra, Purist audio 25th anniversary, Kubala Sosna Elation and Elrod Statement Gold. At all in my system I fairly prefer the Nordost Valhalla Power Cords ( lenght 2 mt) because extremely neutral, free of grain, fast with an outstanding inner detail and an incredibly realistic presentation of the musical event. The differences with others power cords mentioned above are massive. The Nordost Valhalla power cords is is the best power cords that i listened until today.
I'm using (and still evaluating) Nordost Valhalla powercords (all through) + Quantum QB8, Qx4 and Qv2 in my system.

I believe the Nordost products (and Valhalla in particular) to be extremely open, transparent and revealing cables. What you hear is not the cables, but the quality(or faults...) of your system (in your room). Good or bad.
The real length is 1.8m. On the list this is a 1metre version. I did not have a chance listening to the 25 th Ann. I expect It will outperform the LE. Do not forget that this cable is 2 times more expensive. It is in a different league. Would be nice to compare it with Odin. Soon I will write a review of the LE powercable. It has more different talents than Nordost has. The LE puts some extra qualities to the overwhole sound of a system.
