Overview
Nordost Frey 2 Tonearm Cable + – Norse 2 Series
The Nordost Frey 2 Tonearm Cable + is a premium phono cable engineered specifically for the extremely delicate signal generated by a turntable cartridge. As part of Nordost’s Norse 2 Series, Frey 2 combines low-capacitance construction, individually shielded channels, Dual Mono-Filament technology, and an advanced grounding system to provide a quiet, high-speed signal path between the tonearm and phono stage. (Nordost)
Frey 2 features four 26 AWG silver-plated 99.99999% OFC solid-core conductors, arranged as two individually shielded twisted pairs. Its mechanically tuned lay and lengths, combined with Nordost’s Dual Mono-Filament design, are engineered to reduce dielectric interaction and preserve the low-level information produced by the cartridge.
