KCI Pure Gold and the benefits

Hi Guys just wanted to share my new love for the majic of pure gold interconnects. Ive been through the paces of tring different mid to high grade interconnects in my system and finally tried pure gold. Now the price does vary significantly from pure gold cable to pure gold cable, I picked up the KCI and have really loved what gold did for my modest system compared to pure silver, flat ribbon and tons of different copper. I have read the white papers about silver being a better conductor and even some on why gold is more pleasing to the ear. I feel that gold is more coherent top to bottom than silver but noticed many of my audio friends are using silver still. What is the general feeling and use here amongst guys with the high end of equipment? Are you using gold and does it get even better with higher end equipment?

I guess I should say that I agree that clean power makes a good difference.
But ic changes on any desent setup should be noticeable with some ic, even if power conditioning is not used.
But I believe ac power should be addressed.

Getting back to the *original* topic here, I have an update on John's KCI Gold interconnects.

After going through a lengthy up and down break-in process, the KCI interconnects took a final turn towards ultimate musicality.

I won't bore anyone to death with audiophile adverbs and adjectives, but I will say this,
these cables turned my system into a live presence of stark reality.

John went the extra mile for me to make sure I was served in a timely, orderly fashion, including follow-up emails and phone calls.

Do yourself a big favor and check his cables out, well worth the investment, a component upgrade is more the proper term than just replacing cables, no kidding.

Hi Rx8man,
Ha ha, told ya! Isn't it crazy how these cables behave as they break in? They open up in what I call "levels" and with each step they just get better and better. I'm glad you are enjoying them and I will keep you posted on the progress of the speaker cables we have in the works, I think you'll be very surprised!!

If you have any questions or requests please don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks again for your business!
Sincerely,
John

Just wanted to give some of you guys that have been asking for speaker wires an update. As you all know the pure gold speaker cables were just to expensive to make so we have been working with our vendor trying to come up with a gold alloy that has the same signature as our gold interconnects and this latest "mix" is on the mark! It sounds fantastic and I can't wait for you guys to give it a listen, your going to be shocked. I have ordered enough wire to make aprox. four 6' sets, I'll keep ya'll posted on our progress as things move along. Still trying to figure out the best connectors to use, the Oyaide(sp?) spades sure sound nice!
