Speaker cable suggestion for Pass Labs XA30.5

Budget $500. I currently have Nordost Heimdall XLR ICs from DAC to pre to the amp. Looking for clarity and dynamics. Thanks.

I also used them to great effect with McIntosh. They seem very natural- perhaps could be that they are a blend of copper/silver as I recall. I certainly wouldn't spend more on cables. Just my 2 cents though.

Acurus, Which Morrow Audios speaker cables you find outperform Heimdall? I'm currently using Heimdall ICs and was thinking of Heimdall speaker cables as well. Keith, I find my XA30.5 a little warm, liquid, smooth and seductive. I'd like to pair it with a revealing neutral cable that has some oophm for bottom end. How's the bass on A23?
