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?

Living across the pond in the UK Silkworm is almost unheard of. In my 40 odd years of buying Hi Fi I've been up in the stratosphere of £950 ($1600) interconnects but have never heard anything so beautifully balanced as the Silkworms. There isn't an area of the frequency range that is understated or exaggerated. It is all so natural, clear and enveloping. Great product and John is a top guy to deal with.
System:-
Primaluna Dialogue 2, Astin Trew tubed CDP, Vandersteen 1c's with Analysis Plus Oval 9 speaker cable.
I've been absolutely loving my Silkworm+ interconnects for a few weeks now; the best I've ever had in my system (and that includes quite a few of the big names)! And I echo the sentiments about John; just a pleasure to deal with and soon you feel like you have a new audio friend.

Best in 2010 to John and all the KCI users!

I am glad to see this thread back on track. While I do not own any KCI, I know it well and appreciate the designer who has shown passion for the cable and its customers.
