Cardas Interconnect Placement

I just bought a run of cardas golden cross interconnect (1m) in addition to my existing cardas cross interconnect.
My question is this, what would be better:

A) Gold Cross between CD/Pre; Cross between Pre/Amp

B) Cross between CD/Pre; Golden Cross between Pre/Amp

C) Does not make any noteable difference.

Thanks for the help fellow audiogoners!

Always put your best interconnects between the source component and preamp. In this case between your CD player and Preamp.

Bobby, here's some information that can also help you in your decision on where the better cable should be placed. Cardas cables don't like to be moved around much. In fact if you were to unplug a pair of golden cross interconnects from your system and move them to another location it could take hours or even days for them to settle back in and sound like they just did. Many cables do this, but Cardas cables seem to have a major effect on the sound when disturbed. Happy listening!
