Something I noticed about Kimber, as I worked my way through their offerings: all had faithfulness/transparency to the music (ie: none warmer, cooler, more colored than another), but: the progression always yielded more in the way of ambience retrieval (sound space size/shape), organics, image specificity...well, you know- all that stuff that makes it more real and some don't believe exist.

Having used in the past ks1016, ks1026 and ks1126, i agree with @rodman99999. You can start with the all copper version and see how it goes. |
Here's a way to select from a variety of Kimber's Kables, without having to purchase before auditioning: https://www.usedcable.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=kimber Use their Lending Library (providing you find something of interest) and any rental fee will be deducted, whether you buy new or used (hard to lose). |
My speakers are W&B 800D3 pair. Your responses have been very helpful and confirmed what I believed. I can not audition yet, since I am starting from scratch. I understand transparency and hearing those sublime notes which I enjoy having once owned Martin Logan Prodigy speakers two decades ago. My dealer unfortunately does not represent these cables so I will either purchase new once I have accumulated my equipment, which I am preparing to order the MC611 pair and C2700 preamp. Will the C2700 preamp translate warmth into the system using these cables, or it will it be negligible? I am considering the MAC Mcd SACD/CD player (tube) player also. |
