Obligatory Norne cable photography- just received an Einvaldi Reference that has been pre-loved…
It is a copper/silver fusion, though I choose to call it Mithril
.
It sounds wonderful and I am immensely grateful to have found one, as they are no longer made due to the high price of silver wiring to Trevor’s standards. It is sonically very relaxed, yet detailed, and with great extension of bass and treble, yet without harshness in the upper frequencies. Loads of air and detail without overwhelming you with information- it’s just… there if you need it.
The thickness/flowing ergonomics of the Einvaldi reminds me a bit of the Draug 3 I had once, though it is likely a bit chunkier. It is quite a bit lighter/thinner than my Vygarde and Drausk (partly because my Drausk is an early, larger-gauge version that I LOVE).
It’s a great link between my Stellia and the WA2. Another Norne in the stable!
