Kimber 8VS Speaker Cable

“…While the Kimber 4PRs had brought those [musical] subtleties back to life, the 8VS cables presented them with even greater urgency, drama, and purpose,”   

“I was surprised to hear Omar say that the 8VS was ‘cheap’ and the 4PR ‘super cheap,’ but I guess I shouldn’t have been – the quality and value of Kimber Kable’s products speak loud and clear.”  — Stephen Mejias, Stereophile, July 2012.

8VS is one of the best value speaker cables in the whole Kimber range. 8VS doubles the number of conductors compared to 4VS and bridges the gap between their entry level PR range and higher end TC cables.

Kimber 8VS consists of eight gray and eight black conductors, arranged in a large format braid. The conductors feature VariStrand conductor geometry and are drawn from ultra-pure copper. The aggregate wire size is two 9 awg conductors. The smooth power and authority of 8VS make it a great match for full range speakers, subwoofers, and the low frequency section of bi-wired loudspeakers.

8VS is available with pre-cut and stripped ends, Kimber 4mm Banana plugs or UltraPlate™ Spade connectors.

Kimber SBAN is a good banana plug, both mechanically and electrically. It is convenient, affordable, and sounds very good. You can expect years of worry free performance from this classic 4mm plug.

Kimber PM33 Postmaster spades are special larger locking spades that fit oversized diameter (0.28″ through 0.345″) binding posts.
