Nordost White Lightning 3 Speaker Cable

With 10 x 26 AWG spaced silver-plated, solid core OFC conductors, and FEP insulation.

New for 2024, Nordost’s Leif 3 line moves the bar for entry-level cable ever higher. The third Leif series is 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.

Flatline Design

Nordost’s original Flatline loudspeaker cable introduced the audio world to an entirely new level of performance and a unique production technique. Nordost’s 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.

White Lightning

By re-examining the geometry of each cable, Nordost has reduced dielectric effects even further as well as optimized the physical spacing of the conductors. This results in significant musical gains, allowing White Lightning Speaker Cables to establish a completely new performance benchmark at this price point and deliver greater power and musical purpose from your system than you would have thought possible.
