One consideration is if your equipment supports the AES standard. If so, then just about any XLR should perform without issue. I used Mogami in my system, and when my dealer suggested an AQ model, I took it. Despite it costing a lot more, I did not notice a significant change in sound quality. I attribute this to all my equipment adhering to AES standards. (Reach out to Ralph Karsten-PM Atmasphere if you need more info).
I think using XLR as a way to shorten speaker cable length, such as when using monoblocks is a great way to preserve signal quality. I don't know how long your speaker cables are, but if they are short runs, then you might notice a difference when moving to XLR.
