Nordost Blue Heaven Speaker Cable

Has anyone any experience of using this product in an all Linn system. And, more importantly using it in shorter runs such as 2.5m.

The Nordost in the right system will sing, and I believe there are many who are smitten by its sonics. The only caveat is you would have to pay much more for them to perhaps do a little more of what the K400 are fully capable of doing in a fully optimised Linn system. At that cost differential, there remains the uncertainty whether the overall sonic has been compromised in its tip-to-toe coherence, a usual trade off for substituting "foreign" cables into the set-up, though there may well be improvements in other specific areas. For me, this uncertainty, especially at the elevated price points, makes cable substitutions too risky - I'm a firm believer of getting exactly what I paid for, if I paid for something to work as it should in a fully dedicated one-make system.

This applies to all other cable-make substitutions, not just Nordost, in the context of a full Linn system, but as always, the money and choice are yours.
