The third installment of NOVO magazine’s three-part cable upgrade series,\u00a0The Journey to Higher Quality Audio With Nordost Leif Cables: Part 3 or 3<\/a>\u00a0was released this October.\u00a0Reviewer Suave Kajko is taking his readers through the process of maximizing the performance of their audio systems step by step. While parts 1 and 2\u00a0focused on Blue Heaven\u00a0Interconnects<\/a>\u00a0and Power Cords<\/a>, part 3 sees Suave shift his focus to Blue Heaven\u00a0USB<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Speaker Cables<\/a>. With a full loom of Blue Heaven cables finally installed in his system, Suave finds a refinement to every discernible improvement he made along the away. However, what may surprise most readers is the difference that the USB cable made, since many up-and-coming audio enthusiast dismiss such digital cable upgrades.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“With the Blue Heaven USB cable in place, between my laptop and the DAC, I was rewarded with a further lowered noise floor, which resulted in a wider soundstage, with more precise positioning… both instruments and vocals sounded closer to what you expect to hear in real life, deepening the music listening experience.” \u2013 Suave Kajko<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can now read all three parts of Suave\u2019s Blue Heaven cable review in the\u00a0review section<\/a>\u00a0of the Nordost website \u2013<\/p>\n
