Well, Duster, you've never steered me wrong in the past, and I have always been very grateful for your help and support.
So I went ahead and ordered a 4ft. pair on Amazon. If they're nothing more than "blah", I'm only out $24, but I trust your ear.
I'm almost getting to the point where I just want to buy cheap stuff that sounds relatively decent, and never, ever, EVER come back on here or Head-Fi again... I get into too much trouble when I start buying above the low mid-fi range... I just can't seem to settle for anything there. Seems like I had more fun listening to my music a few years ago. It's a pretty nasty bug, I tell ya.
Thanks again for your help (again!), friend.
Cheers,
Chris

Nah, you're just going through a rough period in the audiophile journey. We all get frustrated; it's normal. A hobby without challenge is just an indulgence. You've become more aware of what listening cues to seek rather than just listening to the music -- when you arrive at an audio playback performance level based on what you can afford, you can take your audiophile hat off (if you want to) and just get back to enjoying the music, again (more of the music, I might add).
If things don’t sound quite right, you might want to reevaluate any tweaks or other notable adjustments made to your system -- sometimes a change made to a system may have sounded great at the time of discovery, but later down the road is found to sound skewed or simply takes the system gestalt in the wrong direction, if you know what I mean.
Well stated and accurate as hell!
