I own Valhalla and Siltech Gen.5. Both are great and expensive cables. It depends on your budget. There are many lower cost products out there the compete with the best, however.

The "best" XLR cable is MarkerTek Pro using Canare Star Quad cable silver soldered to Neutrik connectors!

Very cheap but "pro" quality!

Many expensive XLR cable assemblies do not use "true" balanced cables, only three single end cables.

A "True" balanced cable has the + and - wires contained "within" a shield (ground).

Hi,
first I want to say that you must try cables in your system, because probably some excellent cables don´t work or match with your System.
Here you have some cables that probably exceed your Kimber, or probably not.
Stereovox Bal600
Shunyata Antares (now discontinued)
Harmonix HS-101 GP SUS XLR
Kubala Sosna Emotion
Tara Labs The 0.8
Stealth Indra or Metacarbon (both too expensive)
Acoustic Zen Absolute
For the price, the Shunyata and the Harmonix represent excellent options.
Hope this help you
