NORDOST ODIN 2 ANALOG INTERCONNECTS
Introduction:
The Nordost Odin 2 Analog Interconnects represent the pinnacle of analog signal transmission, delivering an unparalleled level of performance, precision, and sonic purity. As part of Nordost’s flagship Odin 2 series, these interconnects embody the company’s most advanced technology, meticulous craftsmanship, and commitment to excellence. Designed for audiophiles who demand the absolute best from their audio systems, the Odin 2 Analog Interconnects are engineered to provide an unimpeded path for your audio signal, ensuring that every detail, nuance, and emotion of your music is preserved with unmatched clarity and accuracy. This comprehensive overview will explore the features, technical specifications, and benefits of the Odin 2 Analog Interconnects.
Key Features
- Dual Mono-Filament Technology: The Odin 2 Analog Interconnects feature Nordost’s proprietary Dual Mono-Filament technology, which suspends each conductor in a virtual air dielectric. This dramatically reduces insulation contact and capacitance, resulting in faster signal transmission, improved signal integrity, and greater sonic accuracy.
- Pure Silver Solid-Core Conductors: Each interconnect is constructed with ten solid-core, pure silver conductors, ensuring the highest level of conductivity and signal transfer. Pure silver is the most conductive metal, allowing the Odin 2 Interconnects to transmit audio signals with exceptional speed, detail, and precision.
- HOLO® Connectors: The Odin 2 Analog Interconnects are terminated with Nordost’s proprietary HOLO
® connectors, which are designed for maximum conductivity and signal integrity. Available in both RCA and XLR configurations, these connectors ensure a secure, low-resistance connection that minimizes signal loss and maintains the purity of your audio signal.
- Mechanically Tuned Construction: Nordost employs a mechanically tuned construction process that minimizes internal resonance and microphonic effects. This ensures that the Odin 2 Interconnects deliver a stable, noise-free signal transfer, resulting in improved clarity and detail.
- Dual-Layer Shielding: The Odin 2 Analog Interconnects feature dual-layer shielding that protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI). This advanced shielding ensures that your audio signal remains clean and free from external noise, even in environments with high levels of interference.

Odin 2 Analog Interconnects achieve the ultimate interface available in the hifi industry. Nordost’s Supreme Reference interconnects consist of ten silver-plated, 23 AWG 99.999999% OFC conductors, each utilizing proprietary Dual Mono-Filament technology and precise FEP extrusion techniques. These exacting processes, combined with a unique geometrical layout deliver unfettered signal transmission at incredible speeds.
Nordost’s design philosophy does not stop at the cable itself; its innovative technology extends to its connectors. Odin 2 phono and balanced interconnects benefit from their purpose built HOLO:PLUG® connectors. The low mass, dual ring design of the HOLO:PLUG® facilitates “asymmetrically balanced” cables, while the gold-plated, solid brass alloy pins reduce vibrations, eddy currents and harmful non-conductive elements when mated to other components. The combination of these aspects produces unprecedented resolution and seamless transfer of information, so that every nuance of musical detail is captured.
