Best speaker cables for merlin speakers?

Running simaudio w-5 power and p-5 preamp, what would be the best speaker cable for this system. I am looking for the best possible sound and at times I am completely content but on other occasions feel that something is missing. Sometimes I believe it to be the ic's.
My system consists of: vpi tnt with outer ring, graham 2.2 tonearm, sumiko blackbird, ear phonostage, sim p-5 and w-5, ic's purchased here Audioquest Lapis, Auricle Audio Design "Encore!" RCA, Above all audio - 1m Gold XLR .

I had the Merlins VSM and used the Golden Reference with them, worked very well. As we all know your beautiful speakers uses the Esotar D330A tweeters, one of the most amazing mids ever, the ones on the Electa Amator mk1 as well and overall presentation is on the darker side to my ears compared to something more forward.

I got great results when I "upgraded" to the Audience Au24 cables on that system. Brought out a little more kick..on the system. Good luck!
