Cardas Clear Reflection advice needed


HI group,
I recently bought a Bel Canto Pre3VB preamp with its VBS power supply, which I'm running to my Bel Canto REF500S amp. 
Since the Pre3VB and REF500s are fully balanced, I'm in the market for an XLR cable.
My source interconnects are Cardas Clear; I could wait and save up some more for a Clear XLR, or I could go with a Clear Reflection right now.
If I did that, would I be compromising my system? 
Interested in your thoughts.
My system: BC REF500s, BC Pre3VB & VBS1 battery supply, Arcam Alpha 9 CDP, Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Baby Grand SE speakers, Kimber Monocle XL speaker cable......

Thanks for your help...

@decooney @mikey8811 @jl1ny @sdl4  Resurrecting a 2 yr old thread because it’s exactly on topic for my situation.  Any one have additional thoughts on the Cardas Clear Reflection RCA interconnects?  Especially between DAC and Pre?  I’m considering replacing my long-time use of Cardas Golden Reference between my DAC and integrated amp. Also, did anyone use a cable burn-in device to try to reduce the very long burn-in Cardas cables seem to require?

Additional information: the room is not optimized (LR), DAC is Chord Qutest/M-Scaler combo into a Cary SLI-80 HS with all the upgrades. Listen almost exclusively to jazz.  Thanks!
