I think most of the 12TC stuff on ebay (sold by the meter) don't claim to be genuine Kimber Kable but rather denotes no brand or generic. What i was wondering though is the basic physics of the cable - if the manufactures in China and elsewhere use oxygen free copper and braid it the same way as Kimber then the end results, re sound quality, should be the same? Have anyone purchased these cables and tested them? if yes, please share your impressions.
The issue of stealing Kimber's patent or intellectual property is another issue and i am not sure if it applies in this case?
