Since(I assume)its impossible to audition more than a few brands of cable and the "sound" of any cable is system dependent, why not talk with the manufacturers of your equipment? Since they demo their equipment at audio shows, they, better than most, should know what cables best match their equipment. Unless you receive a recommendation from someone who has the same equipment (and listening preferences) as your system, any advise from other Audiogon members is, at best, only a reflection of their preferences (for good or bad!).
cable suggestions for new system
ok,it took me close to forever to save my pennnies, infinite patience scouring the classifieds and finally I've put together my first 'audiophile' quality system: Simaudio Moon I5, Rega Jupiter2000, Joseph Audio RM7si signatures.To start with I bought monster (no smirks please!) to tide me over until I get a good feel for my new system. Eventually I'll want to experiment with cables/ICs; suggestions, comments...!
