The Timbre is the best strandred cable kimber has yet manufactured. I prefer it over the select series of solid core cables as well. I have used or tried every interconnect kimber offers. There is a HUGE difference between PBJ/Hero and Timbre. The clear dielectric has minumim sonic signature on the signal. This is the most dynamic copper cable kimber has yet to produce. the purity of this clear dielectric allows the signal to pass without "loss". I have 3 sets of this wire. One balanced, one ultraplate rca and another that i have experimented with in a custom design. I also have several sets of PBJ (one with double copper to the center like the timbre) let me state my biased preference for the Varistrand kimber wire. This wire does things audiophile wise that no other wire I have tried can do. It has an open 3 dimensional sound with extended highs and lows. The midrange is full rich and powerful. How is it better than PBJ (which I prefer to Hero). The Timbre is very transparent and does away with that little distortion characteristic that the PBJ has in the highs. The bass is also tighter and faster. Additionally, the Timbre shows off dynamic contrasts at near reference level. Dynamic contrasts have been a weak point of many of Kimbers past designs (including PBJ). This new Timbre wire IMO- performs at a level FAR above the retail price. If somone knows of another copper wire that has this type of bandwidth/dimensionality/transparency - please let me know- cause I am always looking for something better.
