Nordost's Vidar 2 Cable Burn-In Service
The Nordost VIDAR 2 is a professional console with multiple top-mounted input and output connections which allow a variety of cables to be burned-in. It will burn-in loudspeaker, analog, digital and tone-arm cables. The unit has a timer function which allows cables to be burned-in for optimum performance.
How the Nordost Vidar works
New cables often have very high levels of electrical charge caused by the production process. In addition, gases are often trapped between the insulation and the conductor during manufacture. This can often result in new cables sounding brittle, bright and lacking detail. These charges must be neutralized if cable is to ever achieve maximum performance.
The Nordost VIDAR 2 uniquely combines three different functions all in one operation:
- It neutralizes charges that build up around the cables and the insulation.
- It provides a very wide band and deep conditioning into the conductor core, which produces changes in the way signals pass through the metal.
- It ultrasonically conditions the surface of the conductors.
Please call us to arrange a time to have your new or used cables burned in. Price per pair of cables - $95
