Want to replace my speaker cables


See my system. I suspect that my speakers cables are my weak spot. I need about a 15 foot run because all the gear is on the right side of the room. I bought the Nordost years back primarily because it seemed it was OK, and even more importantly, it was flat so I could put it under an area rug. I still need a relatively flat cable as running under the floor isn't an option.

I'm not in the bright/hyper detail camp. Prefer warm, full, solid bass and midrange glow.

Maybe I should just keep my cables?

Suggestions please?

I guess this is why I want to replace these cables- I don't generally want to swap out anything that I am satisfied with.

On a side note my observation about Nordost is that the pricier the Nordost the more hyper detailed. My Nordost cables are or were at the entry level line, and to my ears, were more balanced that some higher priced ones. For instance I once tried another Nordost- Red Dawn I think, and found it not to my liking at all.
Leaning towards the AP Oval 9's. Wondering if I should go with Oval 12's bi-wire shotgun. The total equivalent AWG for that is 9 guage, the same as Oval 9's. The kicker is the shotgun Oval 12's run less scratch than the 9's.

To an earlier poster who wondered why I would be happy with the Nordost, well, it is the only thing in my system I'm presently considering trading out.
