I have heard my CS3.6's with very high end MIT cables, and interconnects, and the results were very impressive. However, with the lower end MIT speaker cables, I was less impressed. I swapped out a pair of AVt3's for Cardas Neutral Reference (and I know, I should have compared the Cardas to the AVt1's), and was very happy with the switch. I have heard AVt1's versus AVt3's, and the difference between the AVt3's and the Neutral Ref was much larger. I am still working out just what interconnects work best for me.
