Recommendation for an audiophile speaker cord that is not "bright"?

A friend has loaned me the Nordost Valhalla I and II as well as Nordost Frey 2 cables. They are wonderful speaker cables but do emphasize the "brightness" of my system including my Wilson audio Sahsa 2 speakers.

Any suggestions? Would used Transparent cables provide a richer bottom end? What about Audience Reference?

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. - Thank you - Gerry

Kimber 8TC should do the job for you.

Anticables were mentioned. I tried them and found them bright; and others have, too, so I'd proceed with caution.

If you don't mind being anti-audiophile, I've tried the very reasonable speaker cables sold by Blue Jeans Cable and found them pretty uncolored. Technically (in terms of resistance, inductance, and capacitance), the Belden wire they use for them is among the very best.
