I'm with Schubert on this. The cables are far from your weakest link. I mean, cables will probably change the sound, but they aren't going to turn those components into "refined, detailed, open and sweet". Pick up a Doge6 CD player from Pacific Valve and then you'll sit there with your mouth open. Refined, detailed and sweet. Just like you like. About 2K. Not much more (if any more)than some decent hi-end cables. Less than most. IMO, of course. And 30 days money back if you don't agree.
