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.

Audiolabyrinth, These cables are still in short supply, especially the Ultimate grade. You might check out A Audio Imports as they are the US distributor. I know many new dealers have come on board, but as you were told on another thread, you can audition them from the Cable Company. Actually, that is where I got my first listen to them. You can also go on Google and find dealers.

I just got the top Ultimate Grade of the High Fidelity ics. This weekend they are going on my burner for three days.

Frankly, I have not heard other cables that sound like these. They have no copper, silver or other normal metals in them. Rather the conductor is mu metal like and magnets are used extensively.
