Audioquest Oak speaker and Sky interconnects

Hi, anyone know the Audioquest Oak?

I own the Gibraltar and I'm thinking of an upgrade.

Can I get a thicker sound?

I also have the Sky XLR in my system (B&W 803D, Luxman l-509u integrated amp, Luxman D06 SACD player, Oyaide Tunami GPX-R power cords) but it's slightly aggressive on the mid-highs, I am considering returning to Colorado RCA, I already had before.

Should I switch to the Cardas Golden Reference interconnects (XLR or RCA?) and speaker cable (a single biwired or two monowired pairs?) instead of Aq's, for a thicker and musical sound but still neutral?

After the integrated amp's break-in (1 month) system sound has dramatically changed, now I hear more musicality and smoothness, I re-evalued my Sky and now I have no more intention of downgrading from the silver Sky to the copper Colorado interconnects :)

Now I don't need more warmth but space, air and detail so Oak instead of Gibraltar could be the right choice...

Never change cables before a new component has break in !
