Nordost Norse Tyr 2 Digital Interconnect Cable

NOTE: This product has a typical lead time of 2-4 weeks.

It is vitally important to support your digital devices with cables that deliver the signal with the efficiency and consistency necessary to meet the demands of musical fidelity. Unfortunately, the precision and intricacy needed to produce a truly superb digital cable are out of reach for most cable manufacturers. Poor impedance matching has a dramatic impact on the accuracy with which the signal is passed from one electronic device to another. Nordost’s digital interconnects, on the other hand, implement the most advanced, proprietary technology and revolutionary techniques, ensuring the impedance matching necessary for S/PDIF and AES/EBU leads, guaranteeing the tight tolerance of characteristic impedance necessary to ensure greater musical detail, virtually unimpeded by timing errors or destructive jitter.

Manufacturer's Details:

Tyr 2 S/PDIF and AES/EBU digital leads are produced using cutting-edge technology, adherence to standards, and precision in workmanship. This extra attention given to our cables during the production phase guarantees the tight tolerance of characteristic impedance necessary to ensure greater musical detail, virtually unimpeded by timing errors or destructive jitter. At their base, both the 75 Ohm and 110 Ohm cables are constructed using silver-plated, solid core, conductors which are suspended in Nordost’s patented Dual Mono-Filament technology, creating a virtual air dielectric. They also both benefit from the implementation of mechanically tuned lengths, which have been meticulously calculated to reduce internal microphony and high frequency impedance resonance in the cable. The combination of these technologies yields cables with the extreme bandwidth necessary to accomplish zero-loss data transfer.

The function of these two cables is dictated by their differences in design and build. Tyr 2 75 Ohm S/PDIF Digital Interconnects employ a coaxial design and are terminated with gold-plated Neutrik BNC connectors for correct impedance matching. All Tyr 2 75 Ohm Interconnects are supplied with gold-plated RCA adapters to accommodate their function. Tyr 2 110 Ohm AES/EBU Digital Interconnects use a twinaxial design and are terminated with gold-plated Neutrik XLR connectors, ensuring that they maintain constant impedance throughout the cabling, as well as across terminations.
