Kimber Kable KS1116 XLR seven meter for preamp to amp link $3,106
I have used a seven meter IC in this place for many years.
I have my rack next to my listening position, and the amp between the speakers.
The first wire I used was Kimber PBJ. Back when I had cheaper electronics.
When I went to better electronics I bought a Kimber Hero, also 7 meters.
(though break in, but was good)
A few years ago I bought some 1 meter Cardas Parsec. And loved them, Thinking a long one would work, I spent $1,200 or so on a 7 meter Parsec. total fail, and I returned it, since it was worthless at seven meters. Bought some Kimber bulk wire (for $500!) and made my own.
That was OK but not great. Even back when I bought the Parsec and returned it, I knew I wanted the KS1116. But.. I was too cheap.
It is really hard for me to wrap my head around $3000 for one damn wire.
First meter is $1K then each additional meter is $330 or so.. The cheaper additional meters made it possible.
I did it since I wanted it for over two years.. Finally yeah, I have the money, close my eyes and buy it.
Pretend it never happened..
What wire? what money? hah ha you have me confused with someone else...
I am a certified cheapskate.
