Frogman's insistance on believing that Kimber's digital cables exhibit the same sort of characteristics as their analog ones may be true, or it may just be that he associates those characteristics with the Kimber brand, and his brain tells him what to expect.
We can't overlook the affect of our preconceptions on what we hear. I would bet that many of the "golden eared" of the world would be shocked to learn their conclusions in true double-blind tests. (especially if not told WHAT they're testing!)
As a reviewer in one of the high-end mags wrote (about 20 years ago) "The amplifier delivers 300 WPC into an 8 ohm load and is housed in rich persimmon wood." He then went on to describe the amplifier's sound as "warm" and added, tongue in cheek, "which is typical for amplifiers housed in rich persimmon wood..."
Or, as I responded to my friend recently who asked, "Can you really hear the difference between a stock power cable and one costing $2000?" I replied, "If you just spent $2000 on a power cable, you'll hear a difference."
No hate mail please - I have upgraded power cables, interconnects, etc. My point is simply that our brains can convince us that we hear almost anything. Heck, that's why our systems sound good at all - because our brain fills in what's missing. Therefore, be sure YOU hear it - don't take someone else's word for it.
