Acoustic Zen Hologram II - best for the $

Hi everyone,

I'm upgrading my system from the Nordost Blue Heaven LS (a bit too forward for my taste), and I have read nothing but positive comments about the Acoustic Zen Hologram II. I have the following system:

Oppo 105 for CD/SACD
Exposure 2010s2 Integrated
KEF LS50 speakers

The description of the AZ sound in the reviews appears to be quite balanced, perhaps a little to the warm side. This is what I'm looking for. So, my question is whether there is anything at $1000 (for 2m) price point that you think is clearly superior to the Hologram II.

I don't have an audio store near me, so I'd have to buy blind and deal with the return as I audition cables. I want to make sure that narrow it down to a very limited number of high quality choices.

Thanks so much for your time, and have a great day!

Do you want to save yourself $650 for a 2m pair of cables that uses the EXACT same internal wires (6N Ohno Continuous Cast (OCC) copper supplied by Furukawa Electric of Japan) as Acoustic Zen and sounds superior to the Hologram?
