Alpha-Core Goertz factory-manufactured speaker cable, such as the copper MI-2, sounds so very good that I suspect there is a failure of your inductor foil to approach the performance of their purpose-built foil speaker cable.
On the Alpha-Core website, the construction of the foil speaker cables does not appear identical to that of the foil inductors. Their is a similarity in that foil is flat, but what is used for surrounding the foil and terminating the foil affects the "sound" you hear.
The copper MI-2, MI-3, and even silver AG-1, all are capable of good, rich bass in the appropriate system contexts where I listened to them, including my own systems. Although I have migrated to even better speaker cables, these are still fine products.
I mention this, because it may be misleading to other Audiogon readers who have not heard the real thing, and neither are you hearing the real thing.
