Transparent cables with Thiel speakers

My current system is:
Bryston BCD-1
Bryston BP26
Bryston 7B SST2
Thiel 3.7
Interconect from CDP to pre amp: Cardas Golden Reference
Interconnect from pre to power amp: Cards Neutral Reference
Speaker Cable: Cardas Neutral Reference
I want to upgrade the CDP to Pre amp interconnect and speaker cables to Transparent Reference. If you have ever used Transparent Reference cables with Thiel speakers. Can you please share your experience here. Thank you in advance.

i haven't heard them with Thiel speakers but with Wilson speakers they sound very very good.
The midrange becomes clearer & the high's more refine.
Bass is also tighter.
BUT I read Cardas works very well with Wilson speakers too, so both will probably sound great but different flavor.

I have heard 3.7's with Ayre digital, Levinson amplication and Transparant reference wiring throughout - I spent an afternoon evaluating and the system sounded outstanding. Can't compare to other cables because nothing was switched out during the demo, but I wouldn't have wanted to...

I have been using Audience AU 24 "e" cables and interconnects with my Thiel CS 3.6's, and the Audience cables are truly outstanding. Lows are deep and distinct and the high frequency is extremely smooth with no hint of straining.
