Siddh, I never meant that the HD cables are poor when it comes to base, just that many others are and used that as a comparison.
As far as "gain" I am perplexed. I never had a problem with gain at all. You should contact Rick and HFC and talk to him about it. He is very willing to help in anyway he can.
The one thing I have noticed about the HFC Cables is that they lower the noise floor by a huge amount and allows me to turn the volume up to levels I could never do before. Before at those levels there was too much noise along with the music.
Mind you this is with Amps and a DAC that are some of the most noise free around.
Give Rick a call.
