It's 24awg solid rectangular silver.  It's not especially flexible, but it's less of a bear if you don't put a ton of fancy sleeving on it and stick to soft stuff.  It's ok for travel but best suited for home.
 
Also, all jokes aside, if people are wondering why the hell I'm working with Norse's wire, it was a one off project I did for fun, all I did was assemble it for GG.


Thanks for the reply.

Now now, what if your significant other sees this?

Not really because you would either have to buy 2 of everything or fight her off....  Then their would always be fights about what to upgrade next... No I'm perfectly fine with the fact that my wife couldn't care less about this hobby of mine.

+1 LOL. My wife likes good music and has really good ears too, but she's content to leave all technicalities to me and no longer asks questions about the cost

Congratulations GG on the new cables, and ianmedium on getting to such a good space with your system!

I can recommend a new accountant to you, but he probably won't give you very good financial advice, except to buy more cables 
:-D

I now use the ALO Reference 16 with the LCD3 and it is still too early to compare it with my Norse Litz cable since burn in time is limited, as my LF is a tube amp so I can only burn in the rig when I am in office. To reach 1000 hours I probably need to wait until next summer...

Could you post some pictures of the ALO cable/LCD-3?  If you have, I may have missed them.
 
Cheers!

You could get an Audiodharma cable cooker.  It cooked my cables in 2 days when I borrowed one.  You just need RCA to male mini XLR adapters to burn in the LCD2 cables.

It is not as flexible as the Litz but much more flexible and lighter than the previous Norse cable. About at par with stock cable I'd say, and definitely more flexible than the 8 wire version. They use a different coating for the 16 wire.
