If you decide to experiment with cables, I have had much success with Anti-Cables. They are very cheap, but very, very good in my system. All cables sound different, so you should listen to the various products. I personally didn't think Kimber Monocle was so exceptional...at least in my system. You really want a flat (frequency ) cable..one that presents real music in real time. There are many cables out there that exaggerate various characteristics... that will ultimately be unsatisfactory and you will be looking to change the cables again soon.
