Help with upgrading speaker cables

I have a BAT VK55 and Vandersteen 2Ci speakers. I currently have Kimber Kables biwired between them. These cables are about 20 years old. I am thinking of upgrading them. I like a detailed sound neutral warm as opposed to neutral bright. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

I called The Cable Company - who will consult with you and send you the cables to try in your system for 2 weeks, you give a 5% deposit that gets credited to a purchase. I can't believe how much difference Mit s1 bi-wire made in my system over my aging Kimber 8TC. Hope this is helpful.

Wow,

Thanks again for all your help.

Another question: I assume performance diminishes with time with cables. Have anyone seen this happen in their system?

No technology diminishes with time the cables are just aged( like wine ?)

Yes a cable can make your sound worse. Absolutely, some cables are just a poor match.
'BTW how much do those Synergistic cables you like cost. Please be honest I would like to try them if they aren't real expensive. Please don't ask what expensive is because it depends on how much money I have at any given time.
