F1Fanatic:
I swapped out my Kimber for Jena Labs Symphony several years ago. Each cable has its strengths.
In response to your question about power cords, I try to stay away from after-market power cords because they tend to f-ck with high frequencies - everything upstream of my amps is fed by a PS Audio power regenerator, which largely obviates the need for special power cords. I do still run a Kimber PK(?)-10 power cord (the model below the Palladium) to my amplifiers.
