Signal Cable -- High End Generic?

Searching the archive, I found some of you seem to think this guy and his company offer straightforward good value.

I have a weird grab bag assortment of cables inluding old MIT interconnects from SCD-1 to preamp, Monster Cable M-1 and M-1000 circa 1986 (Bruce Brissoon designed?)between amp and preamp and speakers, cheap entry level copper Monster cable connecting outboard crossovers to the Tympanis, and recently added the $50 giant yellow extension cord Home Depot tweak when I ran out of length on the speaker wire.

Nonetheless, the system still sounds pretty amazing, although my two complaints would be flat image and still a bit of glare on the top end, even with the tweaky resistors put in line as a treble attenuator.

So I am wondering if I buy Signal Cables:

best interconnects between pre and power amp
matching interconnects for SACD player

and matching

double run speaker cables with their spades and bananas (their copper line, not silver)

and

the signal cable "magic" power cords all around

What would you guess might happen to the glare, image depth and overall sound?

For a few hundred bucks, I guess I cant go too far wrong but would love any suggestions.

Thanks for commenting on the silver resolution cables, i have been considering them for some time. Depending on your speakers, canare 4s11 can sound way too mmmellow. With what i have now, i am really tempted to get the silver out of curiosity.
i know that Frank at Signal cable makes the wise choice on what to offer.

I have had a full set of SC,  Silver Resoultion, cables for sometime now, still find them to be very good. Now I am using Wywires, Blue, a bit more expensive, but I don't find them to be any better than SC. All of my power cords are Panega, I have never tried a power cord beyond that level. I was on the cable fence for several decades before I stop using bare twisted speaker wire and  Monster ICs, however the biggest difference, in sound quality, came from the better ICs.

I'll +1 Signal Cable. I have Frank's Ultra speaker, Analog HT, optical, and coax cables. I also have more expensive cables from Morrow Audio (MA3 & MA4), Audio Metallurgy, Auricle, and Siltech. Signal Cable is my "go to" and most neutral sounding set for any system I have. Price is right, quality is top-notch and wouldn't go for anything less than that.
