Kubala Sosna Cables - Reality Check

I am auditioning some of the Kubala Sosna Expression interconnects and speaker cables. My initial impressions are that these wires are a bit to the 'warm' side of neutral. (Not complaining or criticizing the cables - just making an observation). Have you gotten similar impressions in your rig with these cables?

I was using KS Fascinations with tubes and Harbeths. Found them to be a 'warm' cable also - similar to Cardas.

It seems reasonable the KS could be ideal or less than ideal depending on other components or system context. The same could be said for Stealth or any cable for that matter.What cable is best with any compnent under any/all circumstances?
"Stealth cables are much better" with what?

Sounds like I am getting a number of 'yes's; the Kubala Sosna tend to have a 'warmer' tone in a number of different systems. Not bad; just a reality check for me...

I would agree with the "warmer" assessment, I guess, up through the Emotion line, though the "warmness" decreases somewhat as you go up the line. I would not characterize their top-of-the-line Elation cables as warm-sounding at all, though.

Yes, I would agree that Kubala Sosna cables are on the warm side of neutral.
