I'm now a Cardas Woman. I used to be a Kimber gal


Well i was interested in the new Cardas Parsec. I bought one and went WOW! What have i been missing!
So then I bought another.. then went for the big one (seven meter pre to amp, big bucks)
Added a few more. Bought a used Golden Reference here to have for a tease..
So I went from Kimber all around to Cardas.
I liked Kimber, used them for-ever.. Nice, but this new Cardas Parsec has me. (Kimber has some catching up to do guys..) The Cardas is just more 'natural'.

This is like changing auto brand: Lifetime loyal BMW owner.. years of Beemers.. suddenly buys a Porshe! And LOVES it.

Some of them are still in shipment from Cardas. I am just so excited.

Maybe i should consider buying Siltech Cables's 'Empress Double Crown' seven meter pair.. ONLY $135,000.00 for seven meter pair. that is one pair of wires.. does not include Porsche.
Elizabeth, enjoy!

But when you do decide to upgrade further, I'd suggest that you are likely to do just as well sonically if you limited the cable expenditure to no more than $50K. That would leave enough left over for a Porsche Cayman S, including an extensive set of options. Great car!

And it's pronounced Porsh-uh. I learned that watching Two and a Half Men.
Yep and there's NO substitute! LOL!
It cost a lot of money to squeeze more technology into a wire than into a Porsche! :^)
The Pangea do all right. I would have to hear about some real imporvement in cord tech, that does not cost too much. As i have mentioned before, most of my powercords are LONG. and most powercords would be prohibitively expensive in four meter lengths.
And I am still not very inpressed with the gains a thousand dollar powercord can give. Better to have spent that money on the equipment in the first place than on a stupid powercord. (though if you have $20,000 a pop components a thusand dollar powercord would be fine.)

And finally i still love my 10% rule for wires.. My new Cardas Parsec MEET the ten perent rule. So do my current Pangea powercords... Those thousand dollar a meter cords really are not... Nor are several humbdred dollar a meter cords going to. So the change in powercords just is NOT gonna happen anytime soon.
PS i ordered the last two Parsec IC today.
