I'm now a Cardas Woman. I used to be a Kimber gal

Well i was interested in the new Cardas Parsec. I bought one and went WOW! What have i been missing!
So then I bought another.. then went for the big one (seven meter pre to amp, big bucks)
Added a few more. Bought a used Golden Reference here to have for a tease..
So I went from Kimber all around to Cardas.
I liked Kimber, used them for-ever.. Nice, but this new Cardas Parsec has me. (Kimber has some catching up to do guys..) The Cardas is just more 'natural'.

This is like changing auto brand: Lifetime loyal BMW owner.. years of Beemers.. suddenly buys a Porshe! And LOVES it.

Some of them are still in shipment from Cardas. I am just so excited.

Just wait until the Parsec speaker cables come out. Temptation, temptation, temptation...

You have to go all the way, right?

Really looking forward to hearing how the 7m Parsec sounds.

I purchased a 1M pair of Parsec about 6 weeks ago to go between my DAC and integrated amp. It sounded pretty good right out of the box but really started to open up around the 3 week (500 hours) mark. I now have about 750 hours on them and they really sound amazing. The sound is powerful and balanced.

I also have Kimber Hero in my system and it's an excellent cable and should match up well with the Cardas as you already experienced.

I'm guessing your system is going to sound amazing!

I used to have the Hero between an Aragon 24K preamp and McCormack DNA .5 amp and it worked wonders there. It's really a go to cable as far as I'm concerned. I believe the wire in your project cable uses an improved dialectric (white and clear) so you're ahead of the game right there.

Hopefully, whatever break-in takes place will be painless :-).

One thing I noticed was that the Hero had sweeter highs than the Parsec. The Parsec seemed more matter of fact.

Anyway, best of luck with your system.
