Selected materials and innovative constructions

 

Welcome to the world of KBL Sound!

 

KBL Sound was founded in 2013 and is a result of decades of experience gained while being involved professionally in music production in studio recording, or during a real gig live or just experimenting with audio equipment at home. Lying behind this was always a passion for a deeper knowledge and understanding about how to reproduce the original sound as close as possible.

By studying the nature of sound and examining the influence of electronic components on the quality of played music, we have developed our own solutions over the years by the method of endless trial and error. Our attention was primarily focused on understanding the sources of loss and eliminating them in an extremely delicate signal path, which begins in the power socket and ends in the loudspeaker drivers. You can see for yourself what the result is by choosing our products. We are pleased that they are also used by reviewers and owners of recording studios as permanent components of their reference systems.

KBL Sound addresses offer to these sensitive listeners who seek uncompromising, realistic presentation of recordings, devoid of mechanical character and want to enjoy its effects for many years to come. The confirmation of our achievements is a phrase from a recent review of our cables: "With them music becomes a complete event." That is what we are constantly striving and what all music lovers want.

Upper Echelon Product Award

 

 

For what they represent sonically, the level of execution, I grant the two KBL Sound Himalaya II power and Himalaya II XLR interconnect cables  Mono & Stereo 2022 Upper Echelon Product Awards. Matej Isak

The field of activity of KBL top power cable is simply in a league of its own and more than worthy of being explored in a first-class high-end audio system.

With cables, there's often a feeling of being surrounded by the music but not having an interactive part. Himalaya II cables are quite different in this regard. They uniquely combine what often appears to be a juxtaposition of ambiance and interactivity into a seamless whole. For this virtue alone, Himalaya II cables deserve all the praise. Mono & stereo

 

At their level, these cables are both reasonably and highly competitively priced and offer an impressive level of sonic potency and return for their money compared to many higher-priced products.For what they represent sonically, the level of execution, I grant the two KBL Sound Himalaya II power and XLR interconnect cables  Mono & Stereo 2022 Upper Echelon Product Awards.   Mono & stereo

StereoLife High End Award for Himalaya II Series

These cables can mess with your head. Even if you have a truly high-performance system and have experimented with much more expensive cables, you will probably still be surprised by what the KBL Sound flagships will deliver. [...] I'm sure that every high-end audio equipment enthusiast should carry out such an experiment in their own system. If only to see how much can be squeezed out of it, how much of its potential is still locked inside the wires, hidden from our view. And if you think you already know everything, because you tried some of the really expensive Nordost, AudioQuest, Cardas, Acoustic Zen, Acrolink, or Siltech cables, or in fact anything you can think of, I guarantee, that listening to the Himalaya II will not be a waste of time. StereoLife

RED FINGERPRINT  High Fidelity award for Himalaya II interconnect and speaker cable.

 

 

 

The KBL Sound company is growing and its products are becoming more and more sophisticated. At the same time, considering the sound quality, they are quite attractively priced. I would add to this list of advantages also excellent workmanship, which is on a high, world-class level. The Himalaya II is a very, very good set of high-end cables, intended for well-balanced systems in which you do not have to fight for changes, but to bring out the best in them.  High Fidelity

 

THE TESTED CABLES SOUND SOMEHWAT DIFFERENT from each other. The interconnects are dark, dense, have strong low bass and fill the space between the speakers in a dense way. On the other hand, the speaker cables deliver more precise, more "point-like" sound in the space, and their tonal balance is set higher. In turn, they are more dynamic than interconnects. Both are refined, saturated and stay away from brightness. It is interesting that they complement each other in a nice way, resulting in a presentation that I know, for example, from Crystal Cable products, i.e. expensive silver-gold cables.  High Fidelity

Review of Red Corona cables on feverSound.com channel

 

May 2021

On the occasion of the 8th anniversary of KBL Sound, we announce the premiere of a new top line of Himalaya II cables. The series includes signal, digital, phono, speaker and power cables. More information coming soon!

 

 We would like to thank the Audio Video magazine for the Recommendation Award for the Red Corona power cord.

 

 

 

The tested cable is undoubtedly musical. [...] In a system tuned in terms of high precision and neutrality, the KBL Sound able brought the element of fluidization of the sound while maintaining an appropriate level of rhythm and bass foundation. As a result, when I listened quietly, I had the impression of a fuller sound, with a wide dynamic range and good bandwidth extension in both directions. [...] From the perspective of fans of relaxing with music and audiophiles striving to make the sound of their system more flexible, it will definitely be the right choice. Audio Video

 

April 2021

We are pleased to recall and recommend you an audiophile CD, released in Poland by DUX. The album contains recordings of two piano concertos by F. Chopin with the participation of, among others K. Penderecki. During the mastering auditions, complete cables from our Himalaya series were used. The surface of CD has been covered with 24 carat gold for better quality and durability.

 

    

 

November 2020

We are pleased to announce with great pleasure and pride that in the group test of medium-price XLR symmetrical interconnects, made by the editors of the Audio Video magazine, our cable from the Zodiac series received the highest notation (93%), with Tara Labs, Nordost, Cardas, Purist Audio Design and Wireworld as competitors. We also thank the editors for granting the "Recommended" award.

 

The Zodiac is extremely neutral in midrange, but also in the ranges adjacent to it. In my opinion, the timbre of the sound is in no way manipulated or mannered. In terms of tonal balance and color in the midrange, this connector proved to be the best in the group. The Zodiac creates a wonderful stereo panorama. The stage is wide, willingly enveloping and overlapping the sides. However, the most important thing is depth - the best in the group. Audio Video

July 2017

Thanks to Audio Video magazine for Recommended Award for our  Synchro Master Power Power cable

 

 

 

 

 

The fact is that this cable makes a devilish difference! It opens the scene, increases the palpability, binds the bass with mids, and mids with highs. Creates a sound continuum. The boundary between the frequencies completely blurs. Synchro Master Power introduces incredible smoothness and order, while enhancing sound, significantly increasing resolution, legibility and even dynamics. More, of course, on a micro scale than a macro. The sound comes alive, vigor, blush, color. But it also becomes more delicate, sublimated. These changes are really not small ...   Audio Video

Best product 2016

 

 

December 2016

The whole series of cables Zodiac has been honored with the Award Best Product of the Year 2016 by the magazine High Fidelity. This series includes interconnects, speaker cables and power cables.

 

The Zodiac is a cabling system with its own distinct characteristics, where each of the components supports the others. We get a dense, low-pitched sound with many details.It really shows the difference in the music, but it does not fall into the extreme and does not exaggerate the problems. It can be used in a variety of systems, without the fear of breaking something in them.   High Fidelity
