Best speaker cable for Genesis speakers

I am looking to upgrade my speaker cable, and am hoping to get some feedback as to what would be some good candidates to audition. My speakers are the Genesis 4 tower units. Currently I use the Shunyata Orion to run from my Levinson 33H's to the Mid/tweeter towers. This is the cable I am looking to upgrade. I'm not sure that bass response of a particular cable is important, because as I said, this cable is just going from the Levinsons to the mid/tweeter towers, obviously handling the midrange and tweeter ranges only. So, do I only care about the mid to upper performance of a speaker cable, and if so, what is a top candidate to consider? As for the Shunyata Orion....I have no complaints, the system sounds awesome......but I also don't know if there is an opportunity to considerably improve the sound with a cable upgrade, or if it would be a sideways move!!

I've been happy with Ultimate Cables Silver Series on G350's. Relatively inexpensive mix of milspec copper/silver/teflon from a boutique/garage project of Quebec engineer. Because the ribbons are purely resistive and don't rise in impedance/frequency like traditional dynamic speakers, some cables overcompensate being artificially bright on Genesis. First impression of Carl's was "smooth" but not missing anything. Would be nice if he published specs but, for the price, it's no risk.

Too late... sorry, rarely look at this category.
