KCI Pure Gold and the benefits


Hi Guys just wanted to share my new love for the majic of pure gold interconnects. Ive been through the paces of tring different mid to high grade interconnects in my system and finally tried pure gold. Now the price does vary significantly from pure gold cable to pure gold cable, I picked up the KCI and have really loved what gold did for my modest system compared to pure silver, flat ribbon and tons of different copper. I have read the white papers about silver being a better conductor and even some on why gold is more pleasing to the ear. I feel that gold is more coherent top to bottom than silver but noticed many of my audio friends are using silver still. What is the general feeling and use here amongst guys with the high end of equipment? Are you using gold and does it get even better with higher end equipment?

A few comments on the pure silver Firefly interconnects w/Eichmann silver bullet RCA connectors...

WOW!

These are remarkable cables and not just for the value - the Firefly is a true Class-A design. It offers exceptional transparency, resolution, pinpoint imaging and transient speed. There is absolutely no "silver harshness" but simply a smooth and pure sound with all of the best qualities of a silver design. They accurately resolve the signal without adding any coloration while remaining extremely musical and enjoyable.

One caveat: these cables require a LONG break-in period. I'm currently at 300 hrs and sound continues to change albeit with less and less degree of change. I estimate we are at 90% of final sound.

We believe so highly in the KCI designs we are now implementing KCI as the OEM source for the Manger 109-AG Silver Edition loudspeaker we distribute in US.

As a distributor of ultra high performance products (Delta Sigma 3Mhz amps/linestages, Manger "AG" loudspeakers and BOW digital), we require accurate cables to properly access their very special sonic qualities yet desire to hear the musicality of these designs. The Firefly interconnects are extraordinary in meeting this challenge.

Last but certainly not least, I must say John has been VERY supportive in this process and buyers will be getting a world class product with equally matching product support.

HIGHLY recommended!

Hi Jim,

Thank you for the kind words, I'm honored that TMH Audio choose us as your source for OEM wire for your excellent speakers. Now, if I can just talk you out of a pair of those babies and one of those spectacular amps I'd be in audio heaven!! Seriously though, I have to admit the pleasure was all mine in dealing with you & TMH Audio. I look forward to seeing what the future brings for both TMH Audio and KCI.

Sincerely,
John Prator
Just to add a note: Jim (TMHAudio) recommended the KCI cables to me about two months ago. I bought a one meter balanced Silkworm. It easily replaced the Stealth Indra and Acapella High LaMusika in my system. I can't believe the increased resolution and much more true voicings of the instruments, as well as having the widest and deepest soundstage I've experienced. Thank you so much for recommending them to me, Jim! Thank you for making them John!
Great to hear this went the direction it did Jim, congrats and best to both TMH and KCI....

John, what else new is on the horizon for KCI in 2008?
