Nordost Heimdall 2 Digital Interconnects – 75 Ohm & 110 Ohm | Norse 2 Series

The Nordost Heimdall 2 Digital Interconnects are high-performance digital audio cables engineered for precise impedance matching and ultra-fast, low-loss signal transmission. Available in both 75 Ohm S/PDIF and 110 Ohm AES/EBU configurations, Heimdall 2 provides the correct interface for a wide range of high-end digital sources, DACs, transports, streamers, and processors. (Nordost)

Both versions use silver-plated 99.99999% solid-core OFC conductors, precision FEP insulation, and Nordost’s proprietary Dual Mono-Filament technology. Mechanically tuned construction and extensive shielding help maintain impedance accuracy and protect the digital signal throughout the cable. (Nordost)

Which Version Do You Need?

Choose the 75 Ohm S/PDIF version for digital coaxial connections using BNC or RCA. The included BNC-to-RCA adapter makes it compatible with many consumer HiFi components.

Choose the 110 Ohm AES/EBU version for components equipped with balanced XLR digital inputs and outputs. Nordost specifically impedance-matches the XLR termination to maintain a true 110 Ohm signal path. (Nordost)

Ideal Applications

The Heimdall 2 Digital Interconnect is an excellent choice for connecting CD/SACD transports, high-end DACs, network streamers, music servers, digital processors, and other reference digital audio components.
