Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam ,

I recently purchased some Cardas Golden cross sepaker cables. They replaced my Dh Lab Q10s. I replaced the Q10s because i was getting some upper mid freq brightness.
I have Golden Cross interconnects from preamp to amp and from cd player to pre amp. The sound is very smooth and detailed .The bass and mid bass is not as authorative or as tight. The highs are better - more detailed and smooth.
The problem is the sound is almost too smooth the bass is kind of rounded off now .The sound is less dynamic.
My Question is.
Is there an interconnect that could give me back that great bass and dynamics of that i had with the Q10s, without the harshness i was getting. I think i would like to keep the Golden Cross speaker cables and try changing the ICs. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

That just means you have discovered some good new music Keith! We were discussing blues. Those are just a few great artist from the blues genre. There are many more styles to choose from...;)

Alice in Chains
AC/DC
Audioslave
Clutch
Dead Kennedys
Deftones
Desert Sessions Vol. 1-10 (you gotta love this)
Eagles of Death Metal "Peace, Love, Death Metal" is my fav, gotta lp copy!

Try Clutch Keith, they are really hard driving rock and bluesy at the same time. Try some of these other guys I listed too. The ones that you aren't familiar with...try them out on your system dude and tell us what you think?
