The story

Exacting impedance, minimal capacitance, impeccable shielding and rapid transmission are the four things Nordost says a digital cable must deliver, and Odin Gold is its answer at any price. The 75 Ω S/PDIF cable is coaxial with a single 14 AWG conductor and 15.3 pF/ft; the 110 Ω AES/EBU cable is twin-axial with two 18 AWG conductors and 10.5 pF/ft. Conductors are gold-plated 99.999999% oxygen-free copper, solid core, in Dual Mono-Filament inside class 1.003 extruded FEP, with TSC shielding for 100% coverage and a velocity of propagation of 90%.

The 75 Ω cable ends in gold-plated HOLO:PLUG BNCs and ships with a gold-plated BNC-to-RCA adapter; the 110 Ω cable has gold-plated HOLO:PLUG XLRs. A 50 Ω coaxial version with a single 18 AWG conductor and gold-plated BNCs is offered for clock and data connections. All three are built to order.

In a dCS Varèse or Vivaldi system this is the cable for the AES, S/PDIF and word-clock runs. Choose the type and a length of 1.25 m, 2.5 m or 5 m in the selector; other lengths are available to order.

Key technologies

  • Gold-plated conductors and shields. Odin Gold plates the solid-core OFC conductors, the TSC shields and the HOLO:PLUG connectors in gold rather than silver.
  • Dual Mono-Filament. Two FEP filaments wound around each conductor hold it in a virtual air dielectric inside its extruded FEP tube, cutting insulation contact by about 85%.
  • TSC shielding. Nordost's Total Signal Control: each conductor is individually shielded for 100% coverage, a virtual solid shield against EMI, RFI and crosstalk.
  • True impedance. 75 Ω coaxial, 110 Ω twin-axial or 50 Ω coaxial geometry, matched by true-impedance HOLO:PLUG connectors.
  • Adapter included. The 75 Ω version ships with a gold-plated BNC-to-RCA adapter.
