About The Nordost Frey 2 Power Cable
Until recently, most systems relied on stock power cables as standard. But growing experience has shown that these cables are only a mere afterthought. High-quality, purpose-built audiophile power cables make a profound difference to overall system performance. So much so, in fact, that they’re now increasingly seen as the most critical cables in any setup.
The Nordost Frey 2 is a seriously impressive power cable that brings a real sense of refinement and control to any high-end audio system. It’s not just about power delivery - it’s about unlocking the full potential of your components, with cleaner backgrounds, tighter bass, and a more natural sense of flow to the music. The construction is top-notch, as you’d expect from Nordost, and the cable feels every bit as premium as it sounds. If you’re looking to elevate your system’s performance without diving into the ultra-exotic price brackets, the Frey 2 is a standout contender.
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 rendering dynamic responses sluggish and blurry. 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 purpose, finally unleashing your equipment’s full performance potential.
The Norse 2 family is the second tier in Nordost’s product line, delivering the depth, precision, and nuance previously only found in live performances.
Norse 2 cables are constructed using silver-plated, OFC solid core conductors, extruded FEP insulation, and a mechanically tuned construction which, together, form the basis of Nordost’s great sound. Norse 2 cables build upon those fundamental elements, employing even further technological advances, unlocking the full potential that hi-fi audio systems have to offer.
After thirty years of extensive research and development, Nordost has perfected a proprietary technique called Mono-Filament technology, which creates a virtual air dielectric by winding an FEP filament in a precise spiral around each individual conductor before extruding an outer FEP “sleeve” around it. By minimizing contact with the conductor, Mono-Filament technology increases signal transfer speeds while enhancing mechanical damping and geometrical precision.
Nordost has also taken a step beyond its original mechanically tuned construction and introduced mechanically tuned lengths, reducing internal microphony and high-frequency impedance resonance.
Swapping in Nordost Frey 2 power cables gives your system a clear lift in dynamics, tonal richness, and fine detail, heightening realism and pulling you further into the music.
