Speaker cables for Linn Kan I

Hi, I'm running both LS3/5a and Linn Kans with Kimber Monocle XL. With the LS3/5a the Kimber is a great choice in all ways. Not so much for the Kans. I think I can get more out of them with another cable choice, hopefully nothing like as expensive as the Kimber. I'm most interested in trying some budget or DIY stuff to find a better synergy. Less hardness in the mid and firmer bass with a leaner sound would be nice. Anybody's advice on a direction to go in would be most welcome, thanks.

I use Kimber 8tc with Linn Katan's. Works very well.

A very nice cable is the LFD biwire. I use it with Aerial 5's. Extremely detailed and tight with no hardness.

I'm sure there are tons of other choices....

As a former "Linnie" I would recomend Linn's own K20 or K400 for bi-wiring, cable. I always found that there was a real synergy with Linn's speaker cables and it's loudspeakers. Not really cheap but can often be found here used for very good prices.

Thanks for the ideas. I wondered about using Linn cables, so it's good to hear of your experiences.
