Do Nordost match with B&W


Hi guys!
Has anyone had any experience with the nordost heimdall and B&W805s? I have B&W 805s,marantz PM14 and FURUTECH interconnect. Now i want to buy NORDOST HEIMDALL to replace the furutech, please give me some advise. I'm from Vietnam.

Ngocdj,
Transparent just came with their new MM2 upgrade of all their cables. I readed in TAS that it's a big sonic upgrade, so if you buy a Transparent cable, bee sure it's the newest line.
All Transparent cables have the same sonic character, so try the one you can afford. It just get better, when you go up their product line.
Good luck! I am sure you will like them.
I'm sure it could be a grat combination, but it depends on wich sound you want out of your B&W 805S.
Can you describe your sonic terms? Maybe it's not even Nordost you have to look for.
Ngocdj,
Your friends describtion of the Nordost sound, is how I also would describe it. But if you want warm sound, you shall not look for Nordost. I would try with Transparent cables, I prefer these myself. Can you borrow Transparent cables from your dealer?
Can you compare the cables in the hifi store? I you can't borrow the cables, then I think that would be the best idea.
Good luck in your cable search. Cables can be a pretty big jungle.
Ngocdj,
Here in Denmark the Transparent MusicWave Super (speakercable) and MusicLink Super (interconnect), are in the same price range as the Nordost Heimdall.
You can read about them on Transparents website: www.transparentcable.com.

Yes I'm using Transparent MusicLink MM inerconnects, and then I'm going to buy the Transparent MusicWave MM2 speakercable. And I look forward to it, beacuse I'm tired of my stupid Audioquest Midnight, it sounds so boring.
Let me know your thoughts about the Transparent cables.
