Leif 3 is the new evolution of Nordost's entry-level lines, which have served as a benchmark in the hifi industry for over three decades.
Leif 3 cables embody the culmination of years of technological breakthroughs and advancements in craftsmanship, meticulously refined to meet the modern demands of mid-fi and hi-fi sound systems. They leverage optimal materials, unique geometry, and filter-less technology to unlock dynamic, low-loss, and lifelike performances from any audio system. Leif 3 cables return to the basics, focusing on the power, speaker, and signal cables in each of their ranges: White Lightning, Purple Flare, Blue Heaven, and Red Dawn.
Leif 3 Power Cords provide a better foundation than ever. Benefiting from Nordost’s trickle-down technology, they utilize FEP extrusion, as well as Nordost’s proprietary Micro Mono-Filament technology to impart Nordost’s signature sound. With Leif3, each range’s power cord is enhanced by heavier gauge sizes and updated connectors.
The improvements are audible offering expanded dynamic expression, increased musical nuance, and realistic precision in timing. Leif 3 Power Cords will be available at authorized Nordost Dealers shortly.
Retail pricing is as follows:
The Purple Flare 3 Power Cord is $259.99 for a 1 meter cable.
The Blue Heaven 3 Power Cord is $339.99 for a 1 meter cable.
The Red Dawn 3 Power Cord is $559.99 for a 1 meter cable.
Leif 3 Interconnects boast a complete redesign.
Their silver-plated, solid core OFC conductors are arranged in twisted pairs to reduce noise interference. Each pair is then individually shielded before being bundled and secured in a second, braided shield, providing 95% coverage. Leif 3 Interconnects have been further upgraded with Profi Neutrik gold plated RCAs, so now the same great RCA and XLR termination is available throughout both the Leif and Norse families, from White Lightning to Tyr 2. The reimagining of Leif 3 Interconnects allows for the enhancement of the textural aspects of music reproduction, which is only intensified by the quiet background they provide.
Leif 3Interconnects will be available at authorized Nordost Dealers shortly and the retail pricing for all Leif 3 interconnects will be released shortly. Leif 3 Loudspeaker Cables continue to offer the radically thin, durable and flat cable design of their celebrated predecessors, but now, Leif 3 Loudspeaker Cables simply give more. More conductors, and heavier gauge sizes improve the drive and dynamic realism of the music that these cables produce. Leif 3 Loudspeaker Cables will be available at authorized Nordost Dealers shortly.
