RED DAWN LS - Leif Series
Nordost's original Flatline loudspeaker cable introduced the audio
world to both an entirely new level of performance and a unique
production technique. Our proprietary, extruded FEP cables, with
their thin, flat profile don't just look different - their deceptive
simplicity is a uniquely elegant answer to the conflicting requirements
for low resistance, capacitance and inductance that limit the
performance of more conventional cable configurations. Now, the
Red Dawn LS takes the benefits even further. By reducing dielectric
effects still further as well as optimizing the physical spacing
of the 20 heavy-gauge 12 AWG silver-plated OFC solid-core conductors
we have produced a cable capable of phenomenal phase accuracy
and detail, speed and dynamic range. From the quietest, most delicate
note to the power of a thundering orchestral crescendo or driving
rock track, the Red Dawn LS spans the range with effortless grace
and deft control, allowing music to seduce when it wants to, or
be savage when it must. Sitting at the top of the Leif Series,
Red Dawn LS bears comparison with competing cables irrespective
of price. As the best, non Micro Mono-Filament speaker cable that
we can make, it’s pretty much the best non Micro Mono-Filament
speaker cable out there!

The Red Dawn interconnect represents both the performance pinnacle
of the Leif Series and everything that we can build into a non-Micro
Mono-Filament/TSC cable design. But despite its (relatively) conventional
appearance there’s more to this cable than meets the eye.
A
fully-shielded design that can be terminated for balanced or single-ended
connection, it employs six, heavy-gauge 26 AWG, silver-plated
99.9999% OFC solid-core conductors, precision wound in a minimum
cross-section configuration that eliminates unnecessary fillers
or padding elements. Insulation is high-grade FEP, selected for
its superior dielectric performance, while the elegant minimalism
extends to the carefully selected low-mass connectors and differential
grounding. The Red Dawn LS interconnect (like all Nordost cables)
is manufactured and hand-terminated in the USA, enabling us to
further guarantee consistent performance. The result is a high-speed,
low-loss interconnect that fully preserves the sense of musical
power and momentum, scale and drama, delivering your recordings
with delicacy on demand, a compelling impact when required. You
will be shocked by the life and vitality that Red Dawn LS brings
to your system and your music.
