Get in touch with Paul at Clear Day cables.  He'll probably send you some cable for audition....you'll quickly ditch the Kimber.
pmotz.....nope...still like anti-cables....they (just today) came out with an even higher level of interconnect. I compared my balanced to many high level cables...Kimber, Audioquest, Nordost, Wireworld Cardas, etc.....they come very close to Wireworld. I heard Paul’s speaker cable (never heard his interconnects) and the speaker cable was better suited to my system, so I got 2 pair of double shotgun and using it for biwire.
ts49.....the poster's idea of double speaker wires may be unnecessary, but may be quite useful....its called Shotgun configuration and will sound better ...I use it with my speakers.
tis49  You are mistaken....I wasn't talking of bi-wiring (which I do with MY speakers)...but shotgun is using 2 speaker cables from the the amp (either on 1 or 2 outputs) (the same signal is outputing on both) to a single input of the speakers.
Tritonmark...oh so wrong. Cables make a world of difference. There was talk here of Purist....very lush, great mids but to THESE EARS highly colored...they very well may be great in YOUR system. Cardas in MY system was awful...although recommended by the manufacturer of all my electronics...grainy, stuffy, etc. ...and so it goes. In MY experience, power cords make the most difference, however, I just got new speaker cables which I thought made the least difference, and it really opened up my system...never sounded so good. It may be compatibility, it may be trolls...
