I would think that either cable is not up to the standards of your speakers. Jena Labs would be a far better performer, but the new Evolution Acoustics cables (I'll be getting mine very shortly) will be incredible.
If you're open to other cabling, I would like to suggest finding a pair of Audio Tekne speaker cables. Stock, the thin and extremely flexible Tekne ics and scs are the smoothest, most detailed, and musical I've yet heard. Then I had them double-cryo-treated for about $60 for which I realized about a 50% improvement.

Contrary to the high price tags on the Audio Tekne amps and preamps, their cables are extremely reasonable at about $700 for a 1m pair of ics and $1200 for a 2m pair of scs.
