What you should be doing when listening to a set of speakers is to identify what is the sound of the speaker vs what is the sound of the components.
Ideally you will find a set of speakers which work for you and then build around them.
Our philsophy is always start with the speakers, then match the electronics to the speakers, and then match the analog and digital front ends to those components.
You use the cables that will complement all of the components.
Sometimes you have to experiment by changing to a tube preamp, or changing a digital front end etc.
