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.

@ Grey9hound, man, this sucks!, In a few months Happy listening!,Sound Ideas in Gainsville FLorida did this to me!, They did not charge me but shipping back from them!, they did all this to finalize the sale of my amp after I blew it up!, It was one day after the arrival of the amp, so they got nervous that I might want a refund!, I had E-bay protection and pay-pal !!!!,, so they offered to, what I call band-aided the amp to work for free!, that way the sale would be finalized!, I live and learn Dennis!, I should have made them pay to fix it at Krell when I had the chance!, the amp seemed to work when I got it back from them, problems followed very shortly!I can forget getting anything from them!I will likly let them know that I know what they did and what it's costing me now!, that would be the only pleasure I will get!,, Dennis, nearly everything they did they f-up!, Krell has already told me all the details, unless you have a degree, these words would be foreign to you like they are to me!, my wife knows what they mean, she works building electronics!,, BTW,, I have a great ole lady!, she is paying for 90% of all of the amp job!,thats really nice since I paid for the system, It retails the price of a small house!I am beginning to feel sick about all of this audio thing!I can have a very nice new car,4-wheelers,boats, all this and it still would not cost the system retail!Lets hope my pitiful story ends with happiness of music nirvana with my system!,, I would like Happy listening!
@Audiolabyrinth I Think You are going to need a pre-amp or receiver ,you know ....before you hook it up this time...If that is what caused the problem ???
@ grey9hound, Hi, When I first got the amp, we just rented this house,the receptical in the listening room that we hooked the amp up to had 220 on it, thats how we blew the amp up the first day we had it!, of course I did all the electrical work to fix the electrical problem my self, that way I know its done right!, the cd-players had nothing to do with it!, I am good at watching componets go up in smoke!, the krell, now the Ayon!!,, cheers!
@ Waxwaves, Hi, How is the Taralabs The One Power cord sounding for you now?, It should be burned in or close to it!, How does it compaire to your other power cords, Is it better than the rest of the power cords you own?, cheers!

Hey dudes, hope all is good with you fellows, it has been awhile. @ Dennis and Keith, The company I have referred to as having pretty good power cables is in fact VH Audio...not AV Audio. Another good place to start with budget power cables is Signal Cable. Hard to beat for the money IMO! The VH Audio Airsines are not budget tho, they are VH Audio's top o the line pc. Could be used in higher end systems no problem. The VH Flavor 4 or the Signal Cable Magic pc would be a good choices for Grey9hound's amps IMO! Also, I really can't say enough abouta man named Lou and his Lat International AC-2mkII power cables. These cables have a very balanced sonic signature. They are articulate but not overly bright, they have great bass slam without sounding bloated or exaggerated, and they are dead quiet and just stay out of the way of the music. These are great with source components! The three power cables brands discussed above sell my budget favorites! Of course...There are many other good budget minded power cables out there to chose from too. Hope this helps
Thanks for all the good info Adam, I have not yet tried an aftermarket powercord. It may be sometiome before i do, but i will keep your observations in mind . I hope all is well with you . You will have to let me know if you get to knoxville anytime soon .
