Non-edgy Shielded Silver IC Recommendation

A friend loaned me his older silver ICs. I had never used silver ICs before because I thought they might sound edgy and grainy. I was nicely surprised!

So I am thinking to replace my ICs with silver ones. Currently, I have 1m single-ended JPS Superconductor FX3 between CDP and preamp, and 1m balanced JPS Superconductor FX3 between preamp and power amp. I also have a pair of 12ft JPS Superconductor+ Petite speaker cable.

I'd like to keep the speaker cable and change the ICs to silver ones. Can you make a recommendation for me? Thanks.

For resonably priced silver ic's, you might try DH Labs Silver Sonic Air Matrix. I only have one pair between turntable and phono stage, and much more expensive ic's from phono stage to pre amp, but my analog front end sounds none the worse for them. I don't think you can go wrong for the money.
