Nordost frey speaker cable review.
This while preparing to review his company s s 200 signature stereo amplifier see issue 291.
Frey interconnects and speaker cables are the most transparent and least colored components i ve ever had in my system.

The nordost frey is a rising star to the top tier of cables and receives my highest recommendation.

My history with tyr 2 started when vtl s luke manley recommended updating my decade plus old tara labs zero and omega cables with something from nordost.
Frey 2 speaker cables offer superb detail dynamic range and weight recreating the natural beauty and impact of any musical performance.
In truth it s actually only one player in a much larger bloodline that in its complexity begins to resemble the competing factions in game of thrones the addictive hbo series overflowing with intrigue swords and sex.
