Kimber 8TC or Alphacore Goertz MI2 Veracity?


My current set-up: MF XRAY, MF X-P100, MF X-AS100, MF X-A200 and B&W CDM9NT. all the poweramps are currently monoblocked and are running on PureSilverSound ICs and QED Silver Anniversaries. The sound tends to be bass shy and leans towards the bright side. I am thinking about Kimber / Alphacore in place of the QED (i know its crap, dun remind me!) to cure the problem. Anybody has any experiences between the 2? many thanx.

Like everything else in audio, system matching is essential. I'm a firm beleiver that given the right synergy, everything would sound great. Having said this, I agree with the people who have recommended the Goertz BASED on your sytem and your system's sonic qualities. The other person who is recommending the 8tc based simply on HIS equipment really is a weak recommendation. I've had them both and like I said previously, both are great-sounding cables GIVEN the right mix of equipment. Recommending components on absolute attributes is quite difficult unless they are ultra neutral-sounding. I'd go with the Goertz for your set up. Another good-sounding cable you might check out is the Audioquest Midnight (older model but would still hold its own) or Crystal. Both these have a "warmer" tonality with excellent transparency and very good bottom end.....Good luck!
