Kimber Carbon Interconnects
The Carbon range consists of an analogue interconnect and three speaker cables. The Carbon analogue interconnect sits close to Silver Streak and Hero-HB in terms of price but is a significant step-up in performance.
New Technology
A major feature – and a completely new direction for Kimber – is the use of carbon in these cables. The conductors are pure, VariStrand™ copper over which a carbon-infused conductive polymer is pressure-applied.
The polymer fills the spaces in between the strands
helping to maintain the geometry and means that the stranded conductors behave more like a solid core conductor (a benefit), while retaining its flexibility. The copper conductors and carbon polymer are then insulated in the conventional way with Kimber’s Fluorocarbon (Teflon®) insulation. The Carbon polymer both reduces mechanically-induced noise and improves the performance of the outer Teflon® insulating material.
Attention to detail
A feature of Kimber’s Axios headphone cables has been the development of a braiding machine which is able to maintain the famous weave at the point at where the braid splits into two, and this design has been carried over to the newer Carbon cables.
Instead of simply twisting the wires together for the positive and negative halves of the speaker cables, the braid is maintained at the breakout. Likewise, the interconnect consists of a single wire carrying both left and right channels which similarly branches out to both channels with no break at the junction and ensuring preservation of the braid.
Connectors
To complement the high performance of the interconnect, Kimber chose WBT-0114 Cu nextgen™ connectors for the single ended option and Switchcraft® XLR's for the balanced version.
The WBT connectors are finished with the laser engraved, Carbon logo for a truly unique look. A choice of either copper or silver WBT-0114 nextgen® phono connectors are available.
