Nordost Frey 2 Power chord
Norse 2 Series power cords deliver a level of performance not previously possible at their price points. Nordost’s proprietary Micro Mono-Filament construction creates a virtual air dielectric complete with an elegantly engineered suspension system. When combined with silver-plated OFC solid-core conductors and FEP insulation throughout, the result is the ideal electrically and mechanically controlled construction for ultra-fast, low-impedance current and voltage transfer.
The complex topology of Micro Mono-Filament conductors is especially effective in dissipating mechanical energy present on the AC line, which otherwise enters your delicate electronics. Frey 2 adds additional conductors, further diminishing low-level storage and charging effects, creating wider, faster dynamic response and resulting in a more dramatic, involving, and realistic musical response. Consistency of design and materials across the entire Norse 2 Series means that you can easily create a clearly prioritized, no compromise system-wide cable solution, from wall socket to loudspeaker terminals, with each link in the chain specifically optimized for a purpose, finally unleashing your equipment’s full performance potential.
Reviews
“Frey 2 power cords imparted supernaturally quiet black backgrounds and low-level resolving power” – read the review by Neil Gader, The Absolute Sound
"When the subject of conversation turns to the best cable manufacturers in the world, Nordost is usually one of the names that comes up. Their Frey 2 line combines a goodly amount of knowledge and engineering harnessed from their vaunted Valhalla cables, at an attainable price point -- no mean feat, given that they were designed and are made entirely in the US. Their terrific resolving ability is married to a sound of prodigious size and scale, qualities that any listener will be able to appreciate. Norse god Freyr would no doubt agree -- suksess!"
Nordost Frey Cable System Soundstage Ultra
"Nordost’s reputation, the very professional promotion of its products at dealers, shows, and on social media, is pretty well benchmark. Cables can be difficult to promote, and so important, but also much misunderstood by civilians and disparaged by cloth-eared audiophiles. I’m not sure even the wonderful Nordost Frey 2 cables could convince them, but for those of us who love hearing what fine cables add to our system, the Frey 2 line from Nordost will be a certain and happy upgrade. Very highly recommended"
