Kimber 8tc w/ Mark Levinson 23.5 and Revel F52

3/4 would work great, remember that as you open the braid up you will lose some length, but not alot. I have done this tweak many times with great results. If you hold the cable in both hands and push the braid closer together you will see that it opens up quite a bit, and the cross angles change to being more of a cross angle, this is good, and is what kimber does for all their more costly cables, they use carbon anti static sorbathane, but good luck finding that. you can take it a step further and fill the tube with pure silica sand for vibration controll, and get some nice jacket from parts connexion or tweak geek to finish them off, happy listening, chris

Thanks to all. I'll be using these until I switch over to something in the Transparent line.

I own the F52 and have a Pass X250 amp.

I originally had the TC8 and then did the tube mod on it and still thought it was holding back my system.

On a whim I went to radio shack and bought the Mega cable 50 feet for $25 and made 4 equal lengths. It was an Eye opening experience. The speakers opened up, it was like taking the veil off. I have since tried other cables and went back to the Radio shack, the best money I ever spent and the best sound I ever had in my room. These speakers are very underrated

Your looking good,no need to change out unless your addicted like most of us,cheers,Bob

I will agree about revel f52s being underrated , they are fantastic when set up right, to my ear way better than many more expensive speakers, happy listening !!!
