Grey9hound, I totally agree and apologize for being out of line trying to evaluate your entire system. I should have just answered your specific question. Guess Im turning into a cantankerous old man. For what its worth, and you care to give me a 2nd chance, heres a cable you should investigate, ZU Audio Varial. Sorry, but you rarely see them for sale, although they come up occasionally, that should tell you people keep them. They have been compared to cables costing more than 10 times their price. One of these is the Stealth Indra, currently $7000 for a 1M pair. I have personally compared the Varial with Stealth Metacarbon, a step below the Indra, and they are very close. I also compared Varial to Audience Au24 and Nordost Valkyrja. I preferred the Varial, just better overall, and since you asked, definitely better bass. Check out the links below for the reviews.
On this one pay close attention to the paragraph below the 2nd picture of the Varials(XLR), and the last paragraph.

Varials are about a quarter of the way down the list on this one.
