\"Review<\/p>\n

As easy as it is to get swept away by new and exciting ranges and technologies, it’s important to remember all of the other amazing Nordost products that are still leaving major impressions on reviewers and consumers years after their releases! Valhalla 2<\/span> Cables have been in the spotlight since they were launched in 2013 and that doesn’t seem to be changing any time soon.<\/p>\n

The most recent V2 review can be found in the July\/August issue of The Absolute Sound. In his article entitled “Nordost Valhalla 2 Reference Interconnect, Speaker Cable, and Power Cable: Fast, Quiet, Clear”, Jacob Heilbrunn did a fantastic job describing the auditory enhancements gained through incorporating Valhalla 2 into a hifi audio system. Heilbrunn writes:<\/p>\n

…the outcome of using the Valhalla 2 is truly prodigious. Everything instantly improved as a result of this dynamically unconstrained cable. It was easy to detect that the Valhalla lowered the noise floor, and that the bass\u00a0notes became more defined and stygian… In other words, the bennies were evident across the sonic spectrum, in ways both large and small.\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n
