Cardas Golden Cross vs. Golden Hexlink 5C

I'm looking for opinions on the differences between these two cables from anyone who's owned both.

Thanks!

I am thinking about getting the Cardas Golden Reference as the link between my amp and preamp, as it is supposedly a very neutral cable, which is what I am looking for in that particular link in the sonic chain. (I figure I can always adjust upstream interconnects if I want to adjust the sound from my CD player or other source.) Thanks!
