Signal Cable or Audio Art Cable for best budget...


ICs for pre/pro to power amp, and from DVD-HD player's 5.1 output to 5.1 input on pre/pro? Or, possibly another brand?

I would like to go with Venhaus Pulsars, but I think that is going to run into too much money.

My current five ICs from pre/pro to power amp are a set I got from Blue Jeans Cable some time ago for $75 for the whole set. They are described as "Belden 1505F".

If I went with Signal Cable, I could go with the Analog 1($36/pair) or Analog 2($49/pair). With Audio Art, I would probably have to go with the IC-1, since the IC-3 runs $90/1 meter pair.

Or, I could pop for a little more dough for the front 3 channels, and go less expensive on the surrounds.

I don't know much about cables or how good the Belden 1505F is, but my sound watching DVDs seems a little flat. Dialog and surround info seem somewhat incoherent.

Should I expect an improvement over the Blue Jeans Belden with something like the Signal or Audio Art cables?
