Speaker cables Mid High end


Currently have Kimber 8TC speaker cables and recently purchased a Mark Levinson No.526 preamp paired to Mark Levinson 532h amp and Revel speakers. Looking to upgrade speaker cables and have been looking at Cardas Clear line and also read great reviews on Audience AU24 SE . Looking to buy lightly used and want a neutral, open and a high resolution cable to capture the highly transparent and resolving attributes of the No.526 preamp. Any recommendations and thoughts on the Cardas and Audience are welcomed.

If you are indeed married to the KIMBER 8TC speaker cables, then I would stick with KIMBER ICs and KIMBER power cords for an intuitive cable array system synergy .... the best models that you can afford.

Both of your current ones on a first stab blind shortlist predicated solely on a review are fine options in their own right, but trying to guess which of them ( if either ) ) are optimum in your system is a crapshoot at best. 
Dedicated power lines and listening arena acoustic treatments will likely give you a larger immediate step up in audio performance (... if you have not done this already .... ) than tweaking with any speaker cables, ( especially speaker cables in isolation ) .

I have friends with an all-Mark Levinson electronics system driving WILSON MAXX speakers, that are cabled with an all- TRANSPARENT AUDIO array.

in a word ...  “ magical “ audio performance.
