MIT Term 2 speaker cables...Am I nuts???


Recently replaced 12g Original Monster cable with MIT Term 2's to connect Jolida tube amp to Spendor S-100 speakers. Now, I know my system has a warm, round sound without the deepest of bottom ends, but when I hooked up the MIT's (used=broken in)the first thing I did was felt inside my ears to see if there was cotton in them. The sound lacked the punch, dynamics, and the bass of the $3/ft Monster copper. Highs were a noticable improvement, and instruments image better with MIT's, but I am now using the M.C. to drive the woofers as, I swear, they sound better than the MIT's. Am I nuts, or have I simply compounded too many components with a warm sound (Arcam CD player as well = laid-back British sound)?? Is this a common characteristic of MIT's? Would I be better off with a good solid state amp?

Do you have dirty AC Power? Do you use a conditioner? They help with muddy bass if caused by the power. A better power cord on the amp will help to if possible?
I guess I should add that I also have a pair of T2 BiWire. I was very pleased with what they did to the speakers I am using them on. However, I guess that were light in the bass before, so more bass was an improvement. The bass is NOT overly warm or bloated and I am using a CJ Amp which are definitely on the warm side. Have you played with speaker placement?? Maybe it is your room??
