Nordost Superflatline vs Kimber 12TC

Hey,

I just emailed Nordost, and apparently their purple flare/blue heaven/red dawn don’t offer bi-amp capabilities, but they said it is still offered for the superflatline. Has anyone compared this directly to the kimber 12tc? I could save a little bit of money going with the Nordost. From what I’ve been reading, it seems like both these options provide a nice, wide sound stage.


Also, a comparison to the Acoustic Zen Hologram II and AQ Rocket 88 would be nice too

Bruce at Stereo Unlimited in San Diego carries 3 of the 4 you mention and could offer you valuable help. I trust him completely as a happy customer.
best to you on your musical journey.

Chrisr, it is interesting, but even on their website they say the flat, parallel wire reduces inductance and capacitance. After looking a little into it, there seems to be some debate over twisting vs parallel wires and inductance.

And thank you tomic, I will email them some questions.

My experience with Nordost is there really high end stuff is incredible, but there low to mid level stuff is just ok. I would recommend the Kimber route.
