There is nothing magic about shielded cable. The shield is a conductor, and can support RF resonances just like any other conductor in the cable. In fact, there will be resonance modes among all the conductors, including the shield.Getting a shielded cable to sound good requires that the resonance issues be addressed. Simply grounding the shield is not the answer. Sorry that I can't go into details beyond this observation, as the answer is proprietary technology that does not belong to me.
