Cables, Cables

I am sure this was asked many times before, but anyway here I go…
I've been using Home Depot 12 AWG copper wire, bi-wired. It sounded very good to my ear. After reading up some, I've decided to buy some really nice pre-made wire; after all I am always looking for some improvements. So, I bought Audioquest CV-4 not bi-wired. Brought it home, connected and the sound became flat and dull. Am I misunderstanding something here?

Thanks for all the responses. I returned the AQ cable and thought I'd try Nordost by-wire cable. Now, there is no audible difference between this $1400 wire and $70 HD wire. Hmmm, I think I will stick with HD. At least it works very well in my setup.

Does anyone know where to get some flexwrap?
