"romantic" sounding cabling


Hi folks, it is probably a contradictio in terminis thing in audio, but I'm looking for audio cables (interconnects, power cords) that have a touch of romantic flavour to their sound, that means a bit soft and elegant character, somewhat subdued (not edgy) highs, but with excellent resolution and good imaging (not diffuse). They should not be the über expensive cables like Purist Audio Dominus or Nordost Valhalla. Could Kubala-Sosna Emotion be a contender? Thank you in advance.

Chris, it would be nice to know a little about your system, because although I agree with Herman, and also about the legendary warmth of Cardas products, I don't think cables will really give you the sound you're describing. When I read:

" . . .soft and elegant character, somewhat subdued (not edgy) highs, but with excellent resolution and good imaging (not diffuse)."

what I thought of FWIW, is the sound of great vintage tube components like Macintosh, Fisher, Marantz, Scott, Soundcraftsman, Dyna, etc.
