Cables for Thiel CS6

I just bought my pair of Thiel. I'll be grateful for suggestions on which cables fit them best. The rest of the chain is Teac10 + external ADI converter +ARC Sp11 and VT100MKII with Transparent Ultra and reference XL series. My original thought was to go for Transparent Ultra XL, but I'd like to listen to you.
Thanks
Marco

I think Thiel did a show with alpha core cables. May be something synergistic with alpha core. I heard the source was i pod, though. go figure.

I have tried Goertz M1 AG just today. I'm not impressed. Very cool and "HiFi". Especially Voices do not have the right soul. I do not think it is the right match.

I used to love Cardas Golden Ref and Cardas Golden Cross with Thiels. The former is a little more neutral and detailed, the latter has an irresistable sound in the right circumstances.

I tried The Cardas GR. Good overall. The only think I'm missing is air around instruments and still Female voices too dry. Any experience with MIT or Transparent around this?

Audience AU-24 might be a good match. I eventually switched from CGR to AU24 and use it currently for speaker cable. Nice and thin too, cool looking I think.
