Acoustic Zen wow bright?

Are Acoustic Zen WOW!! interconnects considered bright?

I've been swapping out some of my source components and I find the AZ cables to be the most engaging and upfront. I don't know if this is a result of the cables or the player but I'd love to hear some of your experiences you've had with these AZ cables.

I'm using Rotel RCD-1072. With Audioquest Copperheads ICs the sound is a bit dull and flat. After inserting AZ WOW into the mix and the CD player is more upfront and clearer. The brightness isn't a bad thing, I like the extra resolution.

I don't see the WOWs discussed much since it is AZ's entry level cable.

the WOW is full sounding but with a bit of brightness from what I remember.

fwiw the MatRef is a big step up in extension and detail

I find the WOW to be an exceptional cable for the cost. I use them on my HT processor to my amp. When you need 8 interconnects it's a very good value. For 2 channel I like my AZ Absolute Copper interconnects but they are much more expensive.
