A step up from the Purple Flare cable, Blue Heaven is an industry standard for its price range. It boasts 4 heavy gauge AWG silver plate, oxygen-free-copper solid core conductors. More than its little brothers. Getting rid of the extra padding in the cable means a cleaner, faster, better signal.

A great cable that sounds 'fast' and is great for improving imaging and precision in your system.

The Heimdall 2 cables in Nordost's range use Dual Micro Filament technology as opposed to the Mono Micro Filament of the lesser models. Basically this means better insulation. But the insulation is improved in an ingenious way. Having two strands of the FEP insulation means the structure of the inside of the cable is like a double helix and there's lots of air around the different components...a highly effective insulator!

Where the quality of your digital source really matters, you can't go past this cable. The sound is a massive leap above the Blue Heaven and the best sounding USB cable we sell.

If you have a system you care about and want to get the most out of it, adding Nordost Tyr 2 interconnects will elevate the resolution, depth and spatial awareness of the system.

These are exceptional cables that cannot be underestimated. 

Nordost's 2nd level, interconnect cable, Purple Flare incorporates the Micro Mono-Filament Technology to further enhance the speed, accuracy and musical presentation.

The Purple Flare is the price point standard and the perfect cable if you're after some tightness and precision.

It can be terminated with XLR or RCA for the same price...yay!

The Heimdall 2 cables are the most popular cables in the Nordost range here at Carlton Audio Visual and for good reason - this is where they start to get REALLY good.

At the Heimdall 2 level, Nordost employs their Dual Micro Filament design doing away with the Mono Micro Filament design of the Leif range. Dual refers to the two bits of FEP insulation that are wrapped around the silver plated, copper conductors in a double helix type configuration. It's this special structure and twist of the design, that means one of the most effective insulators of all is used ingeniously - air. The structure allows air to be the insulator around the conductor to fantastic effect.

The Heimdall 2 cables should be tried to be believed.

The Nordost USB cables are our go-to for people who care about the quality of their digital source.

It's like turning the tap on all the way to let the music flow out.

The sound of instrumentalists and vocalists becomes instantaneous and things are sharper, clearer thus making small nuances in the music more apparent.

The Heimdall 2 is the real gold standard with dual Micro Filament but the Blue Heaven uses the same principle with only one strand of FEP (Mono Micro Filament)

A handy option to cater for USB Type C. But more than just that...people with impeccable musical tastes who don't want to bottleneck their digital source with an inferior cable.

There is no doubt, Nordost make awesome USB cables...and this one is no exception. 

It uses the goodies of the Nordost Mono Micro Filament cable design engaging all their special insulation and termination techniques to produce a cable that sounds 'faster' and 'cleaner' than others in its price range.

Its termination options make it a great choice for people.

Frey 2 boasts Nordost's Dual Micro Filament design of the cable that twists the conductor and the insulator (Nordost special FEP) in a double helix type structure keeping a consistent amount of air between all parts.

Air, like the FEP, is an extraordinary insulator and Nordost swear by this combination.

We do too because the sound delivered with a pair of Freys is nothing less than magical. There's a preciseness to the begining of notes, more sparkle...more life in the music.

The other great thing about the Nordost range is that you can choose your terminations...RCA or XLR. No extra cost.

These are Nordost's entry level interconnects and this is a company with which you can spend 40K on a set of interconnects. The White Lightning is no slouch though and Nordost have incorporated some clever design elements which make these cables really sparkle.

Silver plated oxygen free copper with a 99.9999% purity is a feature throughout the Nordost range and White Lightning is no exception to that. The conductors are also coated in FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene). This is a type of insulation that increases the dielectric properties of the cable making for a quicker signal transmission.

This is perhaps why Nordost cables sound 'fast'. There's lots of attack to the sound. Instruments and vocals come into focus because the beginnings of each note is heard more clearly. The variation of articulation is such a crucial part of individual musician's artistry and you can hear that more clearly with the White Lightning.

If you've got a good quality digital source whether that be a CD Transport or a streamer, having a poor digital interconnect can mean you're not getting the most out of the source.

Blue Heaven digital will open up your sources and make sure you don't bottleneck your sound quality in the interconnect

Norse 2 Series power cords deliver a level of performance not previously possible at their price points. Nordost’s proprietary Micro Mono-Filament construction creates a virtual air dielectric complete with an elegantly engineered suspension system. When combined with silver-plated OFC solid core conductors and FEP insulation throughout, the result is the ideal electrically and mechanically controlled construction for ultra-fast, low-impedance current and voltage transfer.

The complex topology of Micro Mono-Filament conductors is especially effective in dissipating mechanical energy present on the AC line, which otherwise enters your delicate electronics. Frey 2 adds additional conductors, further diminishing low-level storage and charging effects, creating wider, faster dynamic response and resulting in a more dramatic, involving and realistic musical response.

Consistency of design and materials across the entire Norse 2 Series means that you can easily create a clearly prioritized, no compromise system-wide cable solution, from wall socket to loudspeaker terminals, with each link in the chain specifically optimized for a purpose, finally unleashing your equipment’s full performance potential.

Nordost’s Tyr 2 cables are the top tier of our mid-range, Norse 2 family. The Tyr 2 range yields a realistic yet refined performance from your high-end components thanks to the superior technology it is produced with.

The years of research and development put into Nordost’s Reference and Supreme Reference Ranges, such as Dual Mono-Filament technology and mechanically tuned lengths, as well as specially designed, proprietary MoonGlo connectors, have trickled down into the Tyr 2 products, while still maintaining Nordost’s core cable design to unify the cable’s sonic signatures.

Tyr 2 cables provide the resolution, acumen and effortless musicality found in only the highest echelons of cables at a more realistic price point.

The Sort Füt is a mechanically tuned resonance control device. It is purpose-built to enhance the performance of your hi-fi system and improve upon the standard spikes and stabilizers that are provided with loudspeakers and racks.

Energy is an unavoidable byproduct whenever components are in use, creating vibrations which can greatly affect the sound produced. The Sort Füt’s proprietary four-part construction eliminates these unwanted vibrations by providing a direct ground path, allowing extraneous energy to escape from electronics. The result: a reduction in intermodulation distortion, a proliferation of musical information, and an increase of tonal and textural details that will allow your system to achieve the dynamic range it is capable of.

• Aluminum and Bronze hybrid construction
• Finial Dome to minimize effects of vibration 
• 3 Ceramic balls (Zr02) to minimize contact surface area while providing physical stability to components
• Each unit includes 8mm, 6mm, and 1/4-20 Threaded Adapters
• Minimum Height: 69mm

While individual units of the Sort Füt are available for purchase, the Premium Package includes all of the tools and instrument instructions necessary to get any system sorted with ease and, more importantly, precision.
