Hi Bryan,
I have a Meridian 588 connected to a Rowland Concentra- not quite your system, but hopefully close enough to be a useful analogy. (Once it starts to show up on the used market, I'm hoping to try out the Rowland Concerto Integrated.)
Best interconnects between the two to date: Kimber Select 1130 (XLR). I compared this to Harmonic Tech Pro-Silway II, Wireworld Super Eclipse 5, and Kimber Select 1120.
In this system, the KS and Wireworld cables were in a different league than the Harmonic Tech. All had a much more vibrant presentation- in comparison, the HT cables sounded somewhat pale.
What distinguished the KS-1130 from the others was an improvement in natural tonal balance, and a more realistic soundstage, particularly in terms of image size and height.
Other system components:
Wilson-Benesch ACT-One speakers
Equi-Tech Son-of-Q power conditioner
Alpha-Core AG-2 speaker cables
JPS Labs Digital AC cord (to Meridian)
Granite Audio 560 Power cord (to Concentra)
Black Diamond Racing 'The Shelf' (Meridian)
Assorted Sonex and RPG room treatments
My comments on speaker cables in this system are here.
Good Luck,
