Speaker cable recommendations with Magnepan .7s

I’ve done several upgrades to my setup. I’m now trying to catch up my cables. I’m interested in finding speaker cables that will be well suited to my system. I would like to spend under $200 and prefer to buy used.

I have read that anti-cables or mapleshades are often recommended. That’s all I know.

Magnepan's do not need any particular cable as they present a fairly simple load to the amp, i.e. not a complex impedance.

They do need an amp capable of good current delivery into 4 ohms.

Clear Day Double Shotgun. An 8' pair sell for $450 new, I got mine used for $250. Great with Maggies and Eminent Technologys.

+1 bdp24 for the Clear Day Double Shotguns. These are meant for low sensitive loudspeakers. Try to find a used pair.
