SPECS
Basic structure PCOCC Speaker Cable, 8-conductor braided shield
Core structure 0.2 10 8
This is the only oxygen free copper speaker cable in the Kondo line, and this is also the
only copper cable using KSL technology developed to remove the sound roughness
which arises generally from the lower grade digital sound in the system like home theatre,
for example.
The heavily decoded signals from home theatre surround sound decoder and receivers
usually comes with very unpleasant edginess and ear scratching sharpness, our KSL-SPc
can greatly improve and transform this into a smooth and musical sound.
Of course, it will be a great cable as well for audio only applications, especially where the
source is primarily digital.

Do you no longer sell the M7 line stage and M7 phono?

How does the M 77 compare? How is the phono stage ?
Many thanks,

We personally never liked the M77 we thought the

original M7 was better.
