Kimber vs. Chord


In the spirit of due diligence, I am continuing to look at speaker cable alternatives to replace the old Monster XPs in my new system. Two good options that are available in bulk here in San Diego for roughly the same price are Kimber 8TC and Chord Odyssey 4. Would be great to hear if anyone has any experience/opinions to share regarding the relative merits of these two.

A little bit about my new system to help:

Creek Destiny Integrated
Music Hall CD25.2
PSB Synchrony OneB
Nordost Baldur interconnect
Speak cable runs are pretty long, about 17 feet from the electronics.

Thanks in advance!

They are hard to beat, at any reasonable price, with regard to transparency (from top to bottom).
Don't know if this info will help you: (http://cls.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?cablspkr&1211479733)
why dont you try Audio Art. www.audioartcable.com
The IC-3's and SC-5s sound great with my cd 25.2 and evo amp. And Rob's a great guy to deal with.
Thanks for the suggestions and comments! Moving the ball forward a little, I am adding another cable to the short list: Synergistic Tesla Series Alpha Quad. All three are about the same cost, but I suspect much different in performance. Comments welcome!
