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 was me for a lot of years Keith! That's how I would up with a system that listed for well over $100K (~$115K). Life has a way of throwing you curveballs that force you to reconsider your priorities. At least it did for me it did. Something about a major health scare and a loss of income within a two year period has a way to make a man reconsider his priorities in life. :)

Guys, I am now 74 and really need to know one piece of information, when will I die. Lacking that, I am doing what I have know older guys to have done, namely having no patience with waiting for anything. I'm sure that had I been threatened by my health or income loss, I would behave differently. But I haven't, so all ahead full.

@Audiolab, satisfied??? Riding off into the sunset??? That's not so easy my friend, this disease goes much deeper than you think. The hunger NEVER ends......just ask Norm (Tbg). LOL!!

Better strap yourself in for the next few decades!! I find that even when I am perfectly happy with the sound of my system, I still peruse the for sale ads....it NEVER ends!!

As I sit here and type this right now, I'm trying to figure out how to NOT buy something that I REALLY want, but which would be financially irresponsible. LOL!!
