Good to see this thread still going and I agree still with the comments of the Silkworm flat out musical rich in tone and I dont feel its missing anything in attack or detail. I have been using KCI cables exclusively now and received my digital cable. I find it very dynamic, detailed fast and crisp- just what I want on the front end. I have a green hornet and element to compare it with and while both of those are great cables the extra dynamics and transparency on the front end is my personal preference. I need more time with it but things are looking good.
As to the question about the Firefly I think it will fit your needs nicely. It is also a fine cable and I find it more Hi-Fiish with a lot of speed and detail. You dont have to worry about any harshness or splashiness but it just didnt have that last bit of organic tone color and flesh the silkworm has.
There is something about the intimacy and SET quality the silkworm presents that hooks me every time. Its hard to keep things in perspective when I am trying to do an honest cable comparison there is an unfair emotional aspect the silkworms have and I have to keep in mind that some tastes lead to absolute HiFi approach you are looking for.
