Frey 2 Speaker Cable

from £3,015.00

Norse 2 Series loudspeaker cables deliver a level of performance not previously possible at their price points. Nordost’s proprietary Micro Mono-Filament construction creates a virtual air dielectric complete with an elegantly engineered suspension system. When combined with silver-plated OFC solid core conductors and extruded, flat ribbon FEP insulation, the result is the ideal electrically and mechanically controlled construction for ultra-fast, low-loss signal transfer between amplifier and loudspeakers.

Frey 2 Speaker Cables offer superb detail, dynamic range and weight, recreating the natural beauty and impact of any musical performance. The use of consistent technology and materials across the Norse 2 Series allows you to easily build a coherent cable solution, maximizing system performance.

Norse 2 - High Performance Cables

The Norse 2 family is the second tier in Nordost’s product line, delivering the depth, precision, and nuance previously only found in live performances.

Norse 2 cables are constructed using silver-plated, OFC solid core conductors, extruded FEP insulation, and a mechanically tuned construction which, together, form the basis of Nordost’s great sound. Norse 2 cables build upon those fundamental elements, employing even further technological advances, unlocking the full potential that hifi audio systems have to offer.

After thirty years of extensive research and development, Nordost has perfected a proprietary technique called Mono-Filament technology, which creates a virtual air dielectric by winding an FEP filament in a precise spiral around each individual conductor before extruding an outer FEP “sleeve” around it. By minimizing contact with the conductor, Mono-Filament technology increases signal transfer speeds while enhancing mechanical damping and geometrical precision.

Nordost has also taken a step beyond its original mechanically tuned construction and introduced mechanically tuned lengths, reducing internal microphony and high-frequency impedance resonance.

Frey 2

Nordost’s Frey 2 cables are the second tier in our mid-range, Norse 2 family. Maintaining consistency with our entry-level products, Frey 2 cables use the same core design as the Leif ranges while introducing state-of-the-art technologies that were first seen in the acclaimed and much sought after Valhalla and Odin ranges. Advances such as Dual Mono-Filament technology and mechanically tuned lengths as well as specially designed, proprietary MoonGlo connectors all make appearances throughout the Frey 2 range, elevating the performance of the cables and bolstering your system as a result. The Frey 2 cables introduce a new realm of sonic possibilities to your sound system, allowing you to enjoy high fidelity performances in a reasonable price range.

Speaker Cables

Nordost’s most iconic products are our revolutionary, flat speaker cables. Due to the intricate extrusion process employed during fabrication, Nordost is the only audio cable manufacturer with the ability to achieve this unique cable design. The flat nature of Nordost’s speaker cables results in a far superior performance level than that of the commonly seen “round” variety. Nordost’s comprehensive range of loudspeaker cables take every factor into consideration: transfer speed, strand interaction, “skin effect”, and signal loss. The result is a line of fast, low-mass cables with low resistance and impedance that cannot be replicated or out-performed by any other brand in the industry.
