WHITE LIGHTNING SPEAKER CABLE
Nordost's original Flatline loudspeaker cable introduced the audio world to 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, by re-examining the geometry of each cable, we have 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.

WHITE LIGHTNING
Nordost’s White Lightning range is the entry-level product line in the Leif family. White Lightning interconnects and speaker cables employ Nordost’s core cable design of silver-plated, solid core conductors in conjunction with an innovative FEP extrusion process to bring a level of sophistication and dimension to even the most basic set-up.
LEIF CABLES
Nordost’s entry level cable ranges are perfect examples of quality cabling set at an affordable price range. The Leif family uses scientifically proven methods and technology derived from the development of our Valhalla and Odin ranges and applies their basic principles to create cables which evoke dynamic, low-loss and realistic performances from even modest components and Loudspeakers.
Leif cables are constructed using silver-plated, OFC solid core conductors, which form the basis of Nordost’s great sound. The conductors are then treated with Nordost’s innovative precision FEP extrusion process, where each conductor is individually enclosed in FEP insulation. This technique greatly reduces the dielectric properties of the cables in order to increase signal speeds and accuracy in signal transfer.
To build upon this foundation, Leif cables are designed with a mechanically tuned construction that optimizes the dimensions and spacing of conductors to reduce dielectric effects even further.
