Kimber KCAG versus Nordost, newer Kimber interconnects, etc


I have been trying out various speaker cables between my Coda No.40 amp and my Martin Logan CLX's.  I recently purchased a pair of Nordost Heimdall 2's which to my surprise were a good match.  I am now turning my attention to my interconnect cables which are all Kimber KCAG with XLR terminations.  I previously had Audioquest Niagara interconnects which are also excellent.   I currently have a heavily modified Wyred 4 Sound STP SE preamp with Level 2 mods as well as an additional custom mod by EJ.  It replaced an ARC Ref 5SE.  My digital source is a Marantz SA 10.  The Coda No.40 is a very pleasant surprise to me as it interfaces extremely well with the CLX's which are very fussy; it is tonally neutral, dynamic, transparent and quite detailed.  I prefer it to a number of solid state amps that I  have had recently including Pass Labs 100.5's and a Krell 402e; the ARC Ref 150 I had could not adequately control the CLX's, particularly in the treble.  I would appreciate if others have had experience comparing the Kimber KCAG's to Nordost interconnects - particularly the Leif series, newer Kimber interconnects as well as other high quality interconnects.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I would agree with Elizabeth i also ran KCAG years ago, two sets if I remember correctly. I've upgraded a number of times since then and haven't looked back. That being said I haven't heard any current Kimber offerings nor Nordost so can't be any help there.


Elizabeth and jond,

Thanks for the suggestions.  I do remain interested in the Nordost Leif series given my experience with the Heimdall 2 speaker cables.  There are  a number of  more current interconnect choices and often it comes down to specific interactions which is why I enumerated some of my equipment.  
Hi,
i have sold my Kimbers KCAG, LS1126, KS1016,..and their power cords, too hifi for me.
For the moment i am keeping the TAK ag which is ok with SME V..
They have good resale value and are easily sold.
I really love the old KS1016 and have one between my phono stage and my line stage.  I want to upgrade my Hero XLRs to the KS1116s but the hefty price keeps preventing me from pulling the trigger.  Probably a 2020 purchase at this point.
