Product Details
KS 6065 is a deliberate balance rather than a halfway house — two-thirds copper and one-third pure silver, in a 2:1 ratio maintained across the whole construction. Eight 24 AWG solid core OFE copper conductors and four 24 AWG solid core OFE silver conductors braided around a geometry-stabilizing central core, then a further eight copper 19 AWG and four silver 19 AWG VariStrand conductors on top.
The architecture is identical to the KS 6068 and KS 6063 — same central core, same spaced-and-damped multi-layered matrix geometry, same 99.995% purity requirement, same WBT nextgen termination options. What changes is only the metallurgy: the ratio in each layer of the braid is calibrated to bring silver’s spatial precision and low-level detail together with copper’s tonal weight and dynamic authority.
Kimber’s reasoning is that the blend of metallurgy and conductor design strikes a keener balance between detail, transparency, and natural tonal presentation than either metal manages alone. It maintains complete dynamic control over the loudspeaker while keeping the balance of the audio spectrum intact — the practical result of that phrase being that in a system with mixed voicing elsewhere in the chain, the hybrid frequently rings truest.
KS 6065 is the Select loudspeaker cable that suits the widest range of reference systems, and the one worth hearing first unless the system’s character clearly calls for silver or copper at the extreme. Its interconnect counterparts are the KS 1026 (RCA) and KS 1126 (balanced XLR). Walk in during business hours or book ahead if the audition needs KS 6068, 6065, and 6063 compared against each other with your specific electronics in place.
