Axpona was a tremendous success! Nordost cables were featured in\u00a0eight rooms throughout the show. Nordost fans were happy to see we had everything on display this year, from our introductory Leif<\/a> cables, to our Supreme Reference, Odin 2<\/a> range. We want to give a big thank you to all of our industry friends, CH Precision<\/a>, Raidho<\/a>, Nola Speakers<\/a>, Cambridge Audio<\/a>, Gershman Acoustics<\/a>, Sonner Audio<\/a>, and especially our fantastic Chicago-based dealer, Holm Audio<\/a>, for all of the wonderful support. For\u00a0those of you who didn’t get a chance to hear these spectacular systems in person, we hope you enjoy some pictures from this great event!<\/p>\n
