I really like the Analysis Plus Oval 8. Got mine on US Audio Mart. They come up used sometimes for less than $1000.

The Acoustic Zen Satori is an excellent all around cable.  Very good tonality, great upper octave detail/air, and an open 3D soundstage. I’ve used these for years as my reference cable and nothing has been able to unseat them.  You can often find them used for $500 or less.  Best of luck.

For many years VPI sponsored an active and excellent forum.  A strong consensus formed that Audio Sensibility made great interconnects and cables at very fair prices.  I settled on their Statement series and use them for all needs including speakers.  Once in a while a friend or a dealer will give me something else to try, most recently a Shunyata that won a best of the year award or some such.  It was certainly good, but not good enough to make me want to switch.  In addition to everything else, Stephen will let you return it if you don’t like it.  Highest recommendation.
