IMPORTANCE OF A FULL LOOM
Valhalla 2 will transform your hifi
system. Music lovers who wire
their systems entirely with these
Reference Cables will not only
achieve the performance they have
been searching for, but will discover
results they never imagined were
possible. Using Valhalla 2, you
will finally find yourself immersed
in a complete and pure musical
experience.
However, if a full loom of Valhalla 2
is not an immediate possibility, you
can make your upgrade in stages.
If any of your components are of a
higher quality than others in your
system, it is best to service those
components by upgrading their
cables first. However, for systems
with components of equal quality,
Nordost has provided you with a
comprehensive framework to help
prioritize your system upgrade.
First, identify the most important
cable in your system — the power
cord coming out of the wall, feeding
your QB8 distribution block — and
continue by following the diagram
below...
(Note: Every system is unique. There
is always a chance you may benefit
from deviating from this guide.)
