F1... I've read your extensive experiences with Kimber products on Agon. I'm contemplating buying Bifocal XL (for $1,250) locally.
What's your thoughts? Is it a worthwhile upgrade from 8TC?

Default My cables...

Speaker cables : Paul Speltz anticables and jumpers. Cost : almost nothing. Length : very short ( less than 2 feet )
XLR cables :
- Mogami Pro Microphone cables between C1000 and 501's. About 120 euros a pair. But I'm sure time has arrived for an upgrade. Any suggestions, at a price of less than 500 $ for 1 x 4 meters and 1 x 2 meters ?
- Oyaide between MDA1000 and C1000 ( about 140 euros for 1 meter )
- Mogami AES / EBU between Linn Ikemi and MDA 1000
- Mogami "Carbon 16 " asym cable between MR 77 and C1000. 100 euros for 1 meter.

So as you see, I have never been an aficionado for "high end " cables.
I loved at a time the Van Den Hull carbon series for the smoothness of the treble. 300 euros a meter . I should check them for XLR cables....

Cheers,
Jérôme

No such thing as "off-topic" in these parts.

New Cables YAY!!! Purist Audio Design Musaeus Bi-wire 2m speaker Wire - $600... Compliments my PMC's in a dreamy sort of way, and my system isn't that high res to demand a higher price point . Did the demo thing with The Cable Co., I recommend everyone trying something with them if they searching for wire. I would have gone with the Analysis Plus Black Oval 9 if the damned PAD's didn't present everything so perfectly - Black background, tight defined deep bass, and a sweet top that matches our Solonex tweeter perfectly... I tried some Nordost, JPS Labs, AP, and didn't want to take the PAD's out of my system. I had the Musaeus interconnects which are coming as well out of my pre/pro to my amp. I'm going to go the extra step and get the Musaeus power cord for my pre/pro too, why not?. With an AQ Optilink 5 from my disc player, and soon to be Synergistic Research Tricon Analog with my Turntable.... I'm going to be in cable heaven!... Well almost anyway, judging by some of your guys' price points!
