Overview
Nordost Odin 2 Tonearm Cable + – Supreme Reference
The Nordost Odin 2 Tonearm Cable + is Nordost’s Supreme Reference solution for connecting a high-performance turntable and tonearm to a phono stage. Designed specifically for the extremely low-level signals generated by phono cartridges, Odin 2 combines advanced conductor geometry, comprehensive shielding, and an exceptionally versatile grounding system to preserve the integrity of the analog signal.
Four 23 AWG silver-plated 99.999999% OFC solid-core conductors are suspended using Nordost’s proprietary Dual Mono-Filament technology, reducing insulation contact by approximately 85%. Each conductor is individually shielded using Total Signal Control (TSC) technology, providing 100% shield coverage against RFI, EMI, and crosstalk.
The Odin 2 Tonearm Cable + also incorporates a fully isolated bond ground along with two detachable silver-plated ground whips, providing flexible grounding options to help eliminate unwanted noise and accommodate different turntable and phono-stage configurations.
