bi-wire vs jumpers
thank you all for your inputs, and the additional links to more opinions. I wasn't expecting a definite answer to it, but it's all good info. Al's comment, agreed@Jmcgrogan2, I can only wish.@Rcprince, the speakers are Paradigm S1v3(pbt) -(I live ... 
Question About NORDOST cables
well, if I could afford two separate runs that would be my choice, believe me. fact is, I'm already using the jumpers that came with the speakers, so if the Norse's are better than the stock jumpers I've everything to gain.at the end of the day wh... 
Question About NORDOST cables
that's good news (to my wallet dismay); 10% is not too bad - I was expecting it to be more - not that they're not expensive already. having heard what the Heimdall's can do, I will probably upgrade to the Heimdall 2 once I've the disposable income... 
Question About NORDOST cables
received the cables a couple of days ago, so these are sort of first impressions, and I'm having some difficulty in exactly putting what I hear into words.more details, and I mean better details; better definition; better extension; the notes soun... 
Goertz Sounding a bit lean
moved from Goertz to Red Dawn speaker cable. if you think Goertz is lean, you DON'T wanna get the Red Dawn. 
Question About NORDOST cables
Xti16, omg you are indeed correct. I cannot believe they were sending a single cable! I genuinely thought that bi-wire involved twice as many cables - instead of one cable being split in two at the speaker end. that's not something I would opt for... 
Question About NORDOST cables
1350 is for bi-wire. I asked for a single run pair. now you got me worried, since I did this over the phone, and English is not my first language. but I'm pretty sure this is what I ordered. will have to wait till Monday to clarify this.

Question About NORDOST cables
I thought you were looking for a pair of cables.sorry, by a single run I meant a single pair, instead of bi-wire. the RD's am using atm are bi-wires. initially I wanted to get the Heimdall's bi-wires, but after hearing about the phase shift I didn... 
Question About NORDOST cables
ok, just to give an update on this - just spoke with Music Direct about Nordost cables, and all Hiemdall's are sold out atm, and had to be ordered. however, heimdall's cannot be ordered in single runs, but the FREY's can.so,I went ahead and ordere... 
Question About NORDOST cables
@Xti16 -are you saying that I should get a single run instead, and perhaps use jumpers instead?@Mt10425 -I hear you. that's a reason why I started this thread. I'm just not sure if I'd move to something else. fact is, Nordost's are superior cables... 
Question About NORDOST cables
thanks guys for the replies - interesting infoabout my comment on hearing some kind of imbalance... after I made the comment out of curiosity I checked the wires signal direction, and somehow I plugged one of the IC in the wrong way, so that's pro... 
Question About NORDOST cables
actually, I'm really, really liking how the Heimdall's IC's have turn out... the bass has really improved, and not only that.I think I'm just gonna go ahead and get the speaker cables too.oh yeah... 
Speltz anti-cables and Vandersteens.......
it would be great if you now changed back to the AQ's to see if you still like the A-C best 
Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?
yes, amazing more like.I've been using my first pair of Rev 2 R IC's (rca) for few days, and I'm very pleased with them. It's been like a significant component upgrade. I'm enjoying the music more.I don't know how he does it. truly amazing. best m...
