KS 1016

About the KS 1016

The Kimber Kable KS 1016 is the top-of-the-line all-copper analog interconnect from the Select Series, evolving from the reference KS 1011 by incorporating six solid core copper conductors instead of two. This design provides increased bass response, augmented warmth, and maintains the sonic signature of the KS 1011 with smooth high-resolution analog signal transfer. The 2:1 rectangular profile copper conductors extend the top end while preserving copper's natural warmth and ease. It uses hyper-pure, molecularly optimized copper conductors, orthogonal braid weave around X-38R core compound, V-fluorocarbon dielectric for conductor purity, ESD (electrostatic discharge) yarn, and no traditional shielding to avoid antenna-like noise pickup. Supplied as a pair with WBT Nextgen 0102Cu locking RCA phono connectors and packaged in a protective Peli case. Reviews praise its dynamic transparency, midband clarity, lifelike timbres, deep bass, vast soundstage, realistic dynamics, and non-fatiguing performance under $1000 per meter.
