recommend excellent balance XLR cable for me plz?

I can't imagine the 1130 making your system "cold or dry" they are a good cable that is more towards the warm smooth side " in my system". More Sky will be along, in the meantime why not audition both?

AQ coral from HCM audio is good and cheap or Cardas Cross, warmer, cheap, and very good, or signal cable silver cheap and excellent, or VAmpire Silver, very good, hard to beat and about 35% or your budget.

Thanks everyone.
I have just bought the Kimber KS-1130 on audiogon.

Do you think the Kimber KS-1130 will be better than Nordost Quattro????????????

In my opion, balanced cables sound more alike than RCA cables. XLR are more uniform in sound. Balanced is better as a conncection, but I prefer the sound of RCA where noise is not an issue.

I don't know if anyone has heard the KS-1136 (XLR) but they offer the same airyness and detail without any brightness or harshness plus they offer a tad more bass and it it tighter. I've had both and sold the Sky.

Of course, some of the differences heard or what is better is system dependent.

The KS-1136 offers two silver positive conductors and two silver return conductors. The KS-1130 uses one of each.
