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.

Full looom is BS.

Expect to feel the wrath of Audiolabyrinth. ;)
I bought some Kimber Gq25SC 'unfinished' wire. So it is woven into a braid. But otherwise just raw wire.
i made some 6m XLR to replace the 7m Parsec.
(the Kimber is 25 gauge, I had planned to make them also 7m but went with 6m and a bit left over to make a pair of RCa besides.
The Kimber wire at 25 gauge is tiny. But with a good additional grond wire for pin 1 (XLR) they are great.
And no hum.. Unlike the 7m Parsec. which had a LOT of hum.(Laying in the exact same locations, unti lthe far end.. where I moved stuff a little)

So i think I have my final cable for the pre to amp distance.
The RCA cable Imade is no slouch either.
Kimber combined with some Cardas Parsec is GREAT.
So I am not altogether bashing Cardas Parsec.. Just the too long to work 7m Parsec IC I had.
