Anybody knows about NBS cables?

Oh, almost forgot: had Nordost SPM full system for a year. Very linear and open, but thin in harmonics and especially in upper mids. Cardas; sounds nice/pleasant, but can compress dynamics. Cardas & Nordost polar opposites, so wonder why you'd be going toward both at same time. NBS exceeds each by wide margin in appropriate system.

Can sombody comment on the 'sound' of the Monitor series cables? I'll looking at Silver Audio Appassionata (a bit bright, but dynamic)but changing slowly) and Harmonic Tech Prosilway Mk II (great midrange warmth), and wonder how'd the Monitor I,II,III,IV and Statement would compare...

Avalon used to use NBS I believe. Now they use FIM. FIM PCs ICs and speaker cable are on a higher level of performance than anything NBS has made. Slawney mentioned Coincident and I agree with his opinion. As good as the Coincident cables are they are no where near the performance of FIM.

Please educate me. What is FIM? Brulee, for context of opinion, what is your system? Thank you.

Soblast, I am intriged by your statment that Harmonic Tech Pro Silway Mk 2 has great midrange warmth. That is the exact opposite of my experience with it and I consider it to me its greatest weakness. What system are you using these with?
