Odin 2 Power Cable
The Odin 2 Power Cord is constructed with seven silver-plated, close tolerance, 14 AWG 99.999999% oxygen free copper conductors. Nordost’s patented Dual Mono-Filament technology is then used so that the twisted pair filaments create a virtual air dielectric between the extruded FEP insulation and each individual conductor. These intricately wound and separately insulated conductors are aligned with superb geometrical accuracy and consistency, offering perfect conditions for mechanical resonances. To allow for a faster rise time in the 50/60 Hz cycle and negate any EMI or RFI influences, each conductor is then protected by a layer of silver-plated lapped ribbon shielding. Nordost’s TSC technology continues in the construction of its purpose-built, 100% shielded, HOLO:PLUG® connector, which is provided on both the IEC and plug ends.
The exceptional electrical and mechanical characteristics of this cable produce an overwhelming effect. Incorporating Odin 2 Power Cords throughout your system will result in a seemingly non-existent noise floor, an infinitely black background and the true depth in range that music calls for.

Odin 2 - Supreme Reference Cables
Nodost’s Supreme Reference, Odin 2 cables are designed to facilitate the perfect reproduction of sound. These exemplary products use every piece of revolutionary technique and technology in Nordost’s arsenal, in order to become the most celebrated range of audio cables in the hifi industry.
Each Odin 2 cable has a foundation of silver-plated, OFC solid core conductors, extruded FEP insulation, and a mechanically tuned construction. They then employ Nordost’s patented Dual Mono-Filament technology, where each conductor is intricately and uniformly wrapped in a twisted pair of FEP Mono-Filament, in order to create an air dielectric. These conductors are treated with a unique shielding technique known as TSC, which allows the cables to maintain signal transfer integrity while protecting them from the harmful effects of RFI and EMI.
Finally, Nordost’s proprietary HOLO:PLUG® connectors are introduced to the design. Each connector fits seamlessly with the internal geometry of the cable it houses, so when combined, these low mass, high end connectors create a perfect marriage of electrical and mechanical tuning.
Nordodst’s flagship cable range is the result of over thirty years of extensive research and development, great ingenuity and a sweeping application of industry knowledge. Odin 2 doesn’t just set the standard, it blows the standards away.
Power Cables
Power cords are the most important cables in a hifi system, and so it is absolutely crucial to run your components with the best AC mains available. Nordost’s extensive line of power cords are purpose-built for audio, ensuring the reliable and stable transfer of current to your components. Nordost’s proprietary technology and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques assure optimally designed power cords, which are proven to reduce the harmful effects of EMI and RFI, resulting in a faster rise time in the 50/60 Hz cycle, and guaranteeing an audible improvement to any hifi sound system.

… Odin 2 takes your system to new levels of performance you might not have thought possible: in this respect, it’s like listening to great old recordings played back on top-notch new equipment – you end up asking yourself, “did they know how good this is when they made it?” Odin 2 does that to both music and the equipment upon which that music is played.
