Cable for Nola Minis in SS system

Any suggestions for an all solid state system paired with Nola Minis? My current cables are the Mapleshade Clearview Golden Helix (with the plus treatment), and although I love the way the instruments are presented, soundstage and depth, the voices have an irritating screechiness at the top end of the highs. Its especially noticeable on the "s" and "t's" of women's voices. I'm looking for a cable that will be fairly neutral.

Thanks!

I've had the Minis for years and NEVER had any screechiness or extra sibilance at all...and that was using SPM and Blue Heavens. These speakers shine with high quality gear but they are usually fairly forgiving.

I used mine with all solid state gear - a vintage Luxman integrated, an Arcam AVR300, and I've forggotten what else.

I don't recall treble emphasis being a characteristic of the Mapleshades, but you may need to look to more than just your cabling.
