Nordost Brahma vs Heimdall 2 power cords

Hi

Just want to make this a full circle. I took the plunge and bought brahma PC replacing Heimdall Norse 2 PC.

I like the Brahma much much better. Highs are more relaxed but retained its form. Bass is well defined, controlled but quite deep.

Advise that audiogoners to jump on brahma if one finds it for sale second hand.

Quite satisfied myself that i find answer to my own question. When people say that Brahma is quite to Valhalla, theyre saying it not without merit.

Thanks for looking

I am still breaking in 4 1M Blue Heaven connected to the QB4 that has a 4M BH connected to the wall. If you can afford it, try an Odin. How do you like the QX2? I have BH LS IC and a Heimdal IC with BH Rev II speaker wires. They sure make some good wires. I'd love to try some Odin. Best of luck.

Hi Polk432

QX2 brings better soundstage to the presentation. I'd advise you to also try Qv2 that you plug to remaining slots of your power distribution. the effect it brings is that high is more clean and well define.

the benefit of Qv2 outweighs QX2 if you weigh in the price of each.

Odin? I dont want to lure myself into more trouble :-) (had enough trouble from trying the valhallas)

I think you'll enjoy your Blue Heavens. I used full loom of Red Dawn before and i liked it. but as you try higher types of nordost cables, the more you want more. that's the danger of this hobby...

Would like to report back on this matter. I now think that it is somewhat better if you combine Nordost cabling with some other brands that are more warmer. Nordost (esp the Valhalla) is very revealing so something warmer can be quite complementary. I use Signal Cables from wall outlet to QX2 and to QB8 power distributor.

I owned Valhalla loudspeakercable and Valhalla powercabels. And I sold a lot of Valhalla and other Nordost cables. Beside this I did hundreds of Nordost tests. For me Nordost is predictable as 1 and 1=2. Realism in sound the Valhalla is a lot better than Brahma and Heimdall. But.......for poweramps it misses a lot compared to some other powercables like Purist Audio. In the lowest freq. you miss drive and definition with the Valhalla. By all the tests of Nordost I had the same outcome. You loose depth and wide by usint 100% nordost. You loose individual focus. And you loose involvement in the overwhole sound. Wenn you go up the line this gets better. Odin is maybe superior in natural sound. Then my qustion is: Why are other Nordost cables not that natural? And please stop witht the bullshit story of synergy. Nordost is not capable of giving all the parts in highend sound what should be there. Wenn I take a interconnect or speakercable out and replace it by another brand. I easilly can add other properties/talents which are not there. For me it is that easy. Because I did test it many many times.
