The answer’s no.
No cable can improve soundstage, or anything else for that matter.
Cable filtering in audio bandwidth is a myth of all things.
Rock/pop records usually don’t have any depth. Unprocessed classical recordings only will reveal what a real 3D (natural) stereo soundstage is, regardless of the kind of loom you’re using.
Soundstage, by the way, doesn’t really mean anything: for some people it’s just the precision and stability of instruments and vocalists, and for others – like me – it’s the illusion that you are in a venue, with the back wall disappearing completely.

If it's broke fix it.
You haven't tried the right cables Jacques.
Technics SL1000R, DynavectorXV1t, Garrard 401, Jelco SA750LB, Decca Reference, ATVM750SH, AT33Mono, Hana Umami Red, Reimyo CDP777, EarYoshino 912, Ear Yoshino 509s, JBLK2 SL5800s, ART Dram interconnects / speaker cables.
Alright then. I will keep the cables only and a NAD 3020
Just kidding of course. Believe me, I tried very hard, I used to think they made a difference (even sold them when I was a hi-fi salesperson) and I finally gave up about 20 years ago. My electrical/electronic training in mind helped a lot to realise how misled I was.

Martin has a point here regarding Q Sound and ordinary CD's. Well recorded ordinary CD's should sound just as effective.
