Aesthetix/Ayre recomended signal-/speakercables.

Hi,
I have a system consisting of Marantz SA-15S1, Aesthetix Calypso, 2 x Ayre V-5xe and Gamut L7 speakers.
I have been searching the web and reading magazines reviews of cables until my head is cooking. The cable marked is enormous and the opinions on each cable model likewise. And then one is suppose to choose one that fits the system.
Difficult task!
I'm looking for a cable "package" for a total of +/- 3000USD. I need a RCA between CD player and preamp, 2 x XLR between preamp and poweramp and biamp speaker cables. I'm planning to have the power amps as close to the speakers as possible and keep the speaker cables short.
Some will probably say it will be impossible without exceeding the budget considerably. And I guess I must agree to some extent.
If someone has a suggestion for a top 5 cables I should audition it would be highly appreciated.

As a fellow Calypso owner, I'd recommend going all the way with Morrow Audio
cables (sold here on Audiogon). In fact I have. 60 day moneyback, I believe. I
used to spend megabucks for cables -- Kimber silver, topline AQ, Omega
Mikro, etc. No more. You'll have PLENTY left over from your $3K. Good luck,
Dave
