Nordost Frey series 1 or Heimdall series 2?

I am debating on whether I should buy the original Frey series speaker cable or pay a little more and get the new Heimdall Norse 2 speaker cables.

From the threads I have been reading the difference between the original Heimdall and Frey series is quite slight. If this is true and the Norse 2 series is marked improvement over the original line I am wondering if I should just buy the Heimdall Norse 2 instead.

With the discounted sale price going on now, the original Frey and Heimdall 2 are somewhat similar in price.

Maobacks, what are you looking to change? What are some of your components?

Series 2 has the same clarity, staging, dimension, and transparency as the original series. It adds more weight, body, warmth, "whatever," you want to call it. The decision can go either way based on components. It is also more neutral to me.

Great cable choice.
