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.

@ ZD542, As much as I love The Taralabs cables, Its the same as all cables, Its system dependent!, The Decade cables were really good for the money paid new!, Its a cable line from 1995 that was Taras celebration cable of being in bussiness for 10 years, the following year they introduced the one cable, the Decade was the top of the line in 1995, 96, the one, the zero gold 97 till late 2013 or early 2014 when Tara releases their new top cable and a speciality line thats for wide ban amps, but the new top cable will be for the mass componets out there, I hope they still keep the zero and omega cables in the line up!, we will see, maybe Tara will try to come to reality with their cable pricing thats really out rageous!, But I think that about all High priced cables!, Its a cable right!, LOL!, cheers!
