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 LLoyd, I haven't had the pleasure of trying Odin's with my G's. I would be a little afraid that if I did and they were amazing ( which I'm pretty sure they would be), I'd have to get a 2nd mortgage and the WAF would be at an all time low, LOL.
Hah! Very sensible! Still...if you ever to hear...let us know! I do think it would be amazing. ;)
Its been 10 years that Nordost Valhalla is out there. Really wondering why i still hear and read rave reviews by owners. Been looking for s/h Valhalla for me to buy and there hasnt been that many sellers, either on ebay or here at a'gon

Anyway, to cure the curiosity i finally got a pair of valhalla ic and valhalla power cord and connect 'em to my mcintosh mcd500. Wow such smooth operators these boys. Detailed, no fatigue over extended period of listening. Open mid range, and powerful bass. Pinpoint imaging and positioning of instruments. Diana Krall is singing in front if me! Pianist next to her, drums and cymbals behind her. I hook up heimdall version 2 power cords to my pre and amp.

This hobby is sooo much fun
