Cables recommendation

Hello everyone,

I currently own 803D3, C2700 pre and MC462 amp. I also have an Oppo 105D and  Denon X4700 that power the surround speaker. I’m now in the look for cables to fire this system up the best I can but to keep the spending reasonable. I currently do not have any cables.

I’ll appreciate everyone’s opinion and suggestion on cable speakers, power cables, interconnects from 2700 to 462 and other cables I should buy to get the most out of this system. I know many have similar systems as this one and would love to hear your recommendations.

Another important thing to note is that I do not have a streamer and thought to use the Oppo for this reason (maybe connect it to DA2 DAC of the C2700?) or maybe get a Sonus streamer. 

Thanks 🙏🏼

My power cables consisted of Furutech FP-S55N cable and Furutech ACFL-50(R) IEC and 50M(R) plugs for the main power cables to my power controller and the mono amps. All others were Furutech FP-SO22n cord and Furutech FI-11-N1 (G) IEC and FI-11M-N1 (G) connectors.

Iconoclast- designed independently by experienced Belden engineer and construction and science are explained on their website (see white papers)- you know what you’re getting and why the cost

Silversmith Fidelium speaker cables are thought to be a sonic bargain amongst many on this forum.

@el_it Audience is a solid recommendation. SR Foundation were not great in my system and certainly not a match for AZ Matrix II which I had and used in many iterations of my system including with B&Ws.

Audience OHNO XLRs should be good. 
Audience AU24SX speaker cables are just ridiculously good. I would spend less on interconnects and focus more on speaker cables first then power cords.

I agree with calling TheCableCompany for advise and their lending library. I just received a Shunyata Research Venom X EF Power Cable, 1.75 meter. Shunyata stated for the price, the Venom X EF performs well outside of its cost, some have compared it directly to Delta NR v2 and feel it competes favorably in most applications.
