Nordost Cables All Nordost cables share a common design theme. That design is solid core conductors. Depending on the application, either flat rectangular solid oxygen free copper conductors, or fine micro-litz round conductors, strand interaction is eliminated. This significantly reduces the well documented audible distortions caused by skin effect and magnetic field interactions. This is done by using an extremely precise extrusion of FEP and a very precise conductor spacing which keeps capacitance and inductance extremely low. In addition, the use of our proprietary Micro Mono-Filament technology increases signal bandwidth in our video cable and reference cable range. This in turn results in cables which typically transmit signals at over 90% the speed of light. This is 20 to 25% faster than conventional cables resulting in a tremendous improvement in musical accuracy and clarity.

Auditorium 23. "Along with the Leben, Jonathan Halpern also sent a 2.5m set of Auditorium 23 loudspeaker cable that retails for $880. Rarely do reviewers -- let alone audiophiles -- agree on anything. However, in this instance I am in total agreement with my colleagues. The Auditorium 23 is easily the finest speaker cable I have had in my system yet. Like the CS-300X, no one area stands out as this green cotton-clad cable excels at walking that ever-tricky tightrope between resolution and musicality. The Auditorium 23 is a touch expensive to these cost-conscious ears yet I believe they are worth consideration and have clicked with every amp/speaker combo I've tried to date (and this from a guy who frowns upon mixing and matching different brands of cables). " - Paul Candy on the A23 Speaker Cables
