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.

Bifwynne, you are most correct.
I'm going to audition the 12TC and would go no higher.
I don't mind being a fool, but do mind being a sucker.
I was going to try the Harmonic Tech but they've just been sold and the Audience bi-wires are 2k.

Schubert, you are hyper, ultra wise. If you are auditining the TCs, perhaps you could also audition the PRs. I would appreciate reading your reactions about the sonic differences bewteen the two grades. I may be a bit of a cynic, but am willing to learn with a little convincing.

I had a pr of 4 pr when they first came out,only Kimber I ever had.They were good back then but I believe they'd be a little rough and ready , esp. in treble , on todays speakers.

Worked a treat on AR3a's though.

Schubert ... please post your comments after you've road tested the TCs. On paper, I surmise there's a lot of hype. But I am interested in learning whether the higher grade and cost delivers real performance.
