Audioquest or Nordost for speaker cable


I have all Nordost IC but have been impressed by Audioquest power cable and am thinking of changing my speaker cables to Audioquest Thunderbird zero. I currently have Nordost Heimdall. Do you think that’s a good idea, Thanks.

For me Nordost every time and I have my system running on a complete Nordost loom. But, as others have said it is system dependent and what suits my system (and ears) may not suit yours.

I've heard good things about Nordost...And that Audioquest is made in China. I'm not buying anything Chinese.

I upgraded my loom from Straight Wire Crescendo to Townshend Audio Fractal F-1 complete loom and I am very happy. 

My experience with Nordost and AudioQuest.

To me, the Nordost Valhalla produces a large soundstage that can be quite appealing but has limited dynamics compared to the AQ Thunderbirds. Especially in the bass.
