audioquest gibralter speaker cables

I have vandersteen audio 5A speakers and a modded denon 3910 dvd player. I have them biwired with audioquest bedrock speaker cables. I would think that getting a pair of audioquest gibralter double biwire cables would be a nice upgrade, but I have read some reviews that said the gibralters were a little on the warm side. I have the dvd player hooked up to a lessloss power cord and that took a lot of harshness out of my system, do you guys think that the gibralter cables would be to warm or would it be a good match, I would audition them but that is not an option. I would appreciate any comments of those with experience with this cable, thanks

I think a lot depends on your speakers (and components). I have the Gibraltars connected to my B&W 803D mains and HTM2D center and they are not warm at all...perhpas that is due to the B&W's being a bit forward (but not so with the diamond tweeters).

I also tried them with a HTM3S center with an aluminum tweeter and they were too bright if anything.

The CV-8 is slightly warm but I wouldn't characterize the Gibtraltars as a warm speaker cable at all...at least in my system.
