Kimber Select IC's


Of the Select series IC's, from copper, to hybrid copper/silver to silver, what differ them apart?
I heard they are pretty forward sounding and might be a flaw in a system very forward and vivid?
I look to get more authority/ body in the mid and a smoother top end. i use a class D amp and a ribbon speaker. A IC that puts soundstage more forward and pretty much throw the music against me would be wrong. I have heard MIT might be what i look for, but they are so expensive and it seems, there are quite often new versions out. I use Signalcable Silver Ref now. System is fully balanced (xlr).

What differ the 36 compared to the 30 (silver), the 26 compaired 21s (hybrid) and all copper?
I'd have the 11 series, mine is balanced, you run single ended i guess? A friend of mine ran the 1130 in his system (for a demo), he uses Transparent Ref. It was between cdp and preamp. He didn't like it. He claimed it was forward and bright. In the end he told me it was strident and not better at any point than Transparent Ref. I have only used up to Ultra with Transparent. I had an Ultra xlr a few years ago. My Signalcable Silver Ref, costing very little in compairson, was better. I ran them for a few months, but it was in my system. I have to do a trial and error. I would like a more relaxed nature in my system, more body and mid breast tone. No frequencies peaking. I want control, every little nuance coming forth from a silent background with no hard tendencies. No bloat or boom bass or midbass.
I'd suggest trying a Discovery Signature. A very underrated cable, IMO. Give Joe DePhillips a call.
The silver have a harsh, shrill sound while the copper have a veiled, slightly muffled sound.
might also want to contact Grover Huffman and see if he can help with his new Sx line, plus he's cost effective. I have Apogee Slant 6s that are tied wuth Grover's speaker cables (that are silver) have never had a complaint with them and they provide great imaging for me, just waiting for my Sx balanced Ics to use with them now as well. But this is my subjective opinion too.
Someone told you falascious info. The selects are neither hard, or forward. they are, quick, transparent, dynamic, and resolving, with a Mid-hallfocus I use the 1136 balanced, and KCAG
