Improving upon Nordost‘s Blue Heaven USB, the new Heimdall 2 USBis the high-end digital cable that will deliver ones and zeroes withthe efficiency and diligence necessary to maintain the correct impedanceto dramatically lift your system to a whole new level of performance.
Thanks to the experience acquired in the fabrication of successfulproducts such as the Blue Heaven HDMI and USB cables, Nordost can nowfurther refine digital leads through its most current, proprietarytechnology. The Heimdall 2 USB is constructed from 4x20AWG stranded, silver-plated 99.99999% OFC conductors,arranged in a precise, twisted double helix in order to ensurecharacter impedance, reduce noise and minimize cross-talk contamination.In order to increase dielectric, the conductors are suspended inNordost’s proprietary FEP Dual Mono-Filament, which is newly optimizedto increase flexibility and mechanical dampening.Add a dual layersilver foil jacket and silver braided shield and the Heimdall 2’sextreme data transmission speeds surpass the USB 2.0 standards.
To further up the ante, the new Heimdall 2 USB is nowimplementing mechanically tuned lengths. This technique, used inNordost’s Odin, Norse 2 and Valhalla 2 ranges, reduces internalmicrophonics and high-frequency impedance resonance, which ultimatelyallows you to enjoy the dynamics, coherence and balance of live musicplayed in the comfort of your own listening room.
