Congratulations @fritzjurg. Good to know that you like the KEFs. I have listened to them multiple times at audio shows. As far as the Salamander goes, make sure that they are not as tall as the loudspeakers+stands, unless you do not plan to position that stand between the speakers. Check out Cullen Cables or Signal Cables for power cord option.
Hopefully Paul gets well soon and make the cables for you. If you get a chance, please do post pics of your new speakers. Make sure NOT to use loud volume to break-in the speakers. Just use moderate volumes and you should be fine.
In the meanwhile enjoy your system.
