The entry point into the Leif 3 series
The Nordost White Lightning 3 Interconnect is designed to offer a dramatic improvement in analog signal transmission over standard cables. Part of the Leif 3 Series, it integrates solid-core silver-plated OFC conductors , high-speed FEP insulation , low-capacitance geometry , controlled impedance , and optimized shielding , ensuring fast, stable, and consistent signal propagation.
Greater detail and control
Thanks to its low inductance construction, reduced EMI/RFI interference , linear signal propagation , minimised losses and phase stability , the White Lightning 3 achieves a more open and defined reproduction. The result is a more focused soundstage, with greater instrument separation and natural timbre.
Ideal upgrade for Hi-Fi systems
Perfect for connecting sources, DACs and amplifiers in stereo and home audio systems, this interconnect allows for greater transparency , improved micro-detail , reduced noise floor , more accurate transients and improved harmonic coherence .
Available in lengths: 0.6 m – 1 m – 1.5 m – 2 m
