I have pretty much the same experience from MIT Max SHD in regard to micro details. This is the aspect that made me decide to use it over the Siltech Tripple Crown. The microdetails in mid and mid high is exceptional. You can easily hear how Dean Martin moves his lips, flick his tongue and hold or release his breath singing. The Kuro removes a slight veil like Paolo said. It lets me hear more of everything, the atmosphere of the recording and get even better sense of boundaries. This without drawing any attention or distracting my listening. Natural to my ears and I am not shy of using the word. The mids is also a tad more liquid than the MIT. People who use Tripoint Elite would know how very transparent their systems are. The Kuro brings my system up another level of transparency with weight and density. And the triangle doesn’t ringgggggggggggggggg without ending.

Kind regards,
Tang

Great words Tang.
Yesterday I had bit time to listen to some tracks I use as a test when I insert new elements into my system.
One of those is: Paganini - Violin Concerto No. 2 in B minor, III. Rondo "La Campanella"
A Stradivari played by Salvatore Accardo:

I was able to delight me with a set of detailed harmonics coming from the stradivari.
Accardo was there in front of me, such was the realism of the scene.
I was also able to hear the movement of the violin that moves away and approximates the microphone.

I am using just one Kuro Silver Gold with Bocchino gold rca connecting phono to pre. Right now I am waiting for more cables from him. You must be part of the reason why my cables take a long time.

Tang

Hi tang,
do you have any news about Kuro cables? Do you received your batch of cables?
Gian told me you will receive (or you have just received) a special cable for your Grounding box to test.
I'm waiting for a balanced SilverGold to test on my Soulution amplifier.

Dear Poalo,

I have received about half of what I ordered. Today I received a pair of phono cables from Gian. I asked him to burn them for me. He is my QC guy...haha :D. I connected them between my Airtight SUT and Phono. Now I know why he is sad sending these cables to me.
I have not received the grounding cables. Hieukm will received the first three. Let’s hear what he has to say about its performance. Gian wrote me a few sentences explaining about the how fast the alloy used in this cable is while he was driving the car. I didn’t get what he was saying, a lot of misspellings, and told him to drive safely and stop texting. Three weeks ago I put these long rca between my pre and amps. I found the effect is more than connecting to front ends. When you put a pair to your Soulution you will be as happy as I am Paolo.

Hi Tang,
happy to know you've received this beauty. It look great!! I've no doubt which the SQ has been improved.
Gian is an incredible source of info on Hi-End domain and a truly gentlemen. He sent me a couple of pictures, Emiliano sent him, which shown the Ground cables you were talking about. Very Impressive!!!!
Emiliano just told me that he received a call from Mr. Bocchino.
He seems to have appreciated the quality in Kuro cable manufacturing, confirming his intention to cooperate. This is great!!!!

Use top material for shield and dielectric like Teflon HD Golg,basalt,mumetal,ecc,ecc
Use top connector like Bocchino,...........
And need one week to produce one pair

Hi Gianluigi,
Do you have any news about your new uber XLR SilveGold cables?

Spades are a single block of silver
Not plated pure silver
Carmine Bocchino is Italian from Naples and live in Australia and give exclusive to Kuro for Italy and other place

Surprised it would be millable pure silver
I wouldnt be surprised if it has additives to give it enough strength for machining.
It looks a bit yellowish

here you can see the quality of Bocchino
The conductivity of top connector like WBT,Vampire,Cardas,are from 19 to 28%,so they kill the signal,while with Bocchino connector conductivity is 100%
I tried same Kuro cable with Bocchino and other very good connector,you cannot image the quality difference,with Bocchino the sound come easily out from speaker,very easy and air and space between instrument,change with other seems sound is less fast,smaller and all less quality
