Need recommendation for a dark sound interconnects


I am interested to know which XLR interconnects, brand and model, have a tendency toward a dark sounding, or simply have a dark sound, that I believe need to use in my audio system between the preamplifier and the power amplifier in order to make the sound right. I know there are hundreds of brands and models of interconnects, but no manufacturer says that theirs sound dark or darker. If you have ever experienced such sounding interconnects XLR terminated, please let me know details. I have tried several interconnects lately, but all of them seemed to have a tendency for brightness as opposed to darkness. Right now I am using one pair of Discovery Signature XLR 1M interconnects, that partially helped. However, I would still want to try something different, with a dark sound. Thank you in advance, Emil - Hartford, CT

Maybe the problem he's trying to fix with his system is that his cables are too bright. As I mentioned in another thread, my entire system went from bright to right (and a bit dark) by putting Purist Audio Musaeus's between my amp and pre.

The Musaeus's don't do it by an artificial bump in the lower mids like some Cardas's do, but keep their integrity across the frequency range. Can't do better for the price IMO, or even a few steps up in price.
