Nordost vs. Transparent...which is better?


Is one company much better than the other? Which do you recommend with a McIntosh tube integrated MA2275, Mac SACD player, and Sonus Faber Guareri speakers? thank you

Hi Adg,
Its ziggy (Frank) Glad your really enjoying the Valhalla IC in your system. Couldn't agree more but did not know you purchased Valhalla PC. As you know I have all Brahma PC's. Do you think the PC had a lot to do with your system sounding sooooo good. Hi musicallyinclined. Just my 2 cents. I also used Acoustic Zen throughout my system and after reading all the hype with Nordost,
I took the plunge and sold off all the AZ and went with a complete loom of Nordost. The Nordost IS a big leap from AZ. AZ are still great cables, but the Nordost are in another league. With my Pass equip. Adg's description are right on the money. What I'm using is ALL brahma PC's, ! Valhalla IC between source and preamp, Frey between pre and amp, and Frey bi-wire SP cables.
You can get a good deal on new ones or better yet buy used.(broken-in already)
