I did find that to when i borrowed cables. Muted top and also a slight muting of the edges. But again, bass was the best talking control and low level detail. I am just trying to find a cable which can match this but maybe it is asking to much?
I know cables are system dependant. I am changing my system here and i am trying to figure what i should look at. My current set of IC's will be too short now, sadly...
