Jenna Labs Valkyre Vs. Nordost Reference

I have symphony's with Talon X's and Tenor 75's and they're great!. I heard a pair of valkyre's last week in my system and they weren't settled in from travel, but they are marginally diffrent and in this case lower volume and less detailed. While I couldn't anticipate this or explain it, it did occur. I haven't heard the Nordost Reference. My speaker cables are Jena 15's. It's wide open and detailed with extended bass and highs.

I went from the Nordost Quatra Fil to the Jenna Valkyre in a heartbeat. The Valkyre was much more open, detailed, dynamic and had a much larger stage in both depth and width. They were more extended in both top and bottom with more bottom detail and less high end grain. I use the Jenna 15 for speaker cables on Avantgarde Trios driven by either Tenors or KR Dual Kronzilla monoblocks. There was very little difference in the Valkrye and the one above that (I believe the Symphony) though the Valkrye was cryoed and the Symphony I tried was not. The Jennas breathed life like the Tenors and the Kronzillas do.
