LS6 to LS7 with Naim streamer

Hi all, recently swapped out my Auralic DAC and streamer, for a New Classic Naim streamer. I had been using a pair of 2m LS6 speaker cables which sounded excellent with the Auralic. The Naim being a bit more of a 'weighty' sound, lends the LS6 towards being a bit less bright. I prefer music with less bass, just me, so my question is would LS7 give me that higher frequency sound I like? I'm about to sell the LS6 (ebay, I would offer them up on here but this is my first post and would I'm sure be frowned upon) which are fantastic cables, but not a perfect match now in my case. Can't swap them with NVA as I purchased them from a HiFi store in the last few months who supplies NVA gear.
 
I have experience with both cables, TISC (LS7) in the main system, upgraded from LS6 and LS6 in the second system. My experience is that both cables are neutral, LS7 being a bit more resolving, especially at the frequency extremes. I would suggest that the frequency imbalance you are experiencing stems from the new source.
 
@Northernlights

What amp are you using?

What speakers are you using?

What interconnect cables are you using?

Does your DAC have different filters?
