Whether it is good practice or not, cables are often used as a tuning method. Early in the audiophile quest, this can lead to overcompensation, but at a certain point, many audiophiles strive for neutrality. Of course, the big question is what exactly constitutes neutrality. As I heard more and more cables, a pattern emerged where some cables pulled the sound in a smoother, lusher, or warmer direction, while others pulled the sound in a dryer, leaner, cooler, more analytical, or even clinical direction. Between these extremes lies a range of relatively neutral cables. While that seems entirely logical, it is important to keep in mind that the assessment of neutrality is still, in part, dependent on the system components, room acoustics, and personal preferences. Suppose a system and room tend to pull the sound in a specific direction, the natural tendency is to apply cables that pull the sound in the opposite direction, so that the overall presentation becomes more balanced. The danger here is that a skewed perception can emerge of what constitutes neutrality.

To improve upon perfection, changes must be elemental. Odin Gold is that change. Nordost’s newest and most advanced product line is a vanguard within the industry. Odin Gold takes the revolutionary technological advances developed in the Odin 2 range, and improves upon the very composition, introducing a material whose stability, conductivity, and tolerance yield transformative
