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.

This is the title track to his Strong Persuader LP I was listening to yesterday. That's my favorite LP by him, but I have a few. I also like BB King, John Lee Hooker, Junior Wells, Muddy Waters, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Robert Lucas, Albert Collins, just to name a few of my favorite bluesmen.

Here is a song from the most expensive LP I've ever purchased. It was a brand new, sealed MoFi Sound Lab copy that I paid $110 for. It sounds awesome!!!

And damn, This one here is just fun to watch!! LOL!! SRV pimping it out with Johnny Copeland, just a couple of Texas boys jamming the blues!! Check out SRV start to rake at about the 6:50 mark!! Awesome!!

I think you may have over-rated my computer skills Keith!! LOL!! If you are asking me to send you something like music, I've never ripped anything in my life. I have had friends send me some kool ripped ceedee's, but I don't really know how to rip from my main rig. I probably could copy some youtube audio, but the sound quality wouldn't sound good on a decent stereo system.

I'm sure that someday I will have to combine my computer and audio system, I hear that computer audio is the wave of the future. All that stuff is greek to me now though. I'm still spinning vinyl and listening to tubes!! LOL!!

Just surf on youtube dude! Play a song, find another off the list on the right, and find some good new music!!
