Nordost Valhalla 2 Bi-wire jumpers

Your sound system is only as strong as its weakest link, which is exactly why even the jumper cables attached to your loudspeakers are an integral part of your cable loom. Those last few inches of crucial cabling ensure that the sonic signature that you have invested in throughout your entire system is maintained between your loudspeaker and the binding posts. Nordost’s bi-wire jumpers improve upon the standard metal plates and generic wires supplied with most bi-wire loudspeakers, and replace them with the same groundbreaking technology and cable philosophy that you have already entrusted to upgrade your entire system.

Valhalla 2 is Nordost’s Reference range of high performance audio cables. These exemplary products benefit from three decades of research and development, resulting in cutting edge production techniques and technological innovations.

Like all Nordost cables, Valhalla 2 starts with a strong foundation: silver-plated, OFC solid core conductors, extruded FEP insulation, a mechanically tuned construction, and asymmetrical grounding. However, that is just the beginning. The advances made from that jumping-point are astounding.

Valhalla 2 - Reference Cables

Valhalla 2 is Nordost’s Reference range of high performance audio cables. These exemplary products benefit from three decades of research and development, resulting in cutting edge production techniques and technological innovations.

Like all Nordost cables, Valhalla 2 starts with a strong foundation: silver-plated, OFC solid core conductors, extruded FEP insulation, a mechanically tuned construction, and asymmetrical grounding. However, that is just the beginning. The advances made from that jumping-point are astounding.

V2 cables use Dual Mono-Filament technology, Nordost’s patented process of separating the conductor from its FEP insulation. During production, each conductor is intricately and uniformly wrapped in a twisted pair of FEP Mono-Filament, before being encased in an extruded layer of high quality FEP. This intricate process allows every conductor to be surrounded by its own air dielectric, which is directly responsible for the dramatic increase of signal speeds and excellent mechanical damping of the cable. This technology, along with innovative, proprietary HOLO:PLUG® connectors, designed to be the best possible interface between the cable and component, propels the capabilities of the reference range to previously unattainable levels.
