Interconnect recommendation- Nordost vs others

I've recently purchased Nordost Blue Heaven speaker cables, which made a huge improvement to my system. Currently the components are:
CDP- Accuphase DP55V
Amp- Sugden A21SE
Speakers- Tannoy Saturn 6
IC- Kimber PBJ
Speaker cables- Nordost Blue Heaven

I just loaned a Red Dawn IC from the dealer, and it betters the Kimber in some ways (more clarity, speed, dynamics), but the midrange is a little thin and a bit bright in the top.

I was thinking of buying Nordost Baldur IC's as they are apparently a big improvement on the Red Dawns. However, I am also considering:

Nordost Baldur
JPS Labs Superconductor FX
Kimber KS 1021
Audience AU24
Harmonic Technologies Pro Silway Mk III

I am basically looking for more transparency, better soundstaging and dynamics than the Kimber PBJ's I have. The tonal balance at present is decent, but more top end extension and bass would be wonderful.

Do you have any recommendations from the above list for my system, or other IC's I should consider???

Cheers
