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.

@chiefsteward1 One of the amps I use in my system is the Red Dragon Mono Blocks.

I highly recommend you take a look at Veritas Cables, their Aperta speaker cables or better yet their Aperta SE speaker cables, all within your price range. Excellent sounding speaker cables.

What are your current cables and what improvements are you looking for?

I’ll add my recommendation as I feel these cables worked well for me with several different amps (Rogue, Pass Labs) and 2 completely different types of speakers (Martin Logan Montis and Wilson Sabrina). The cables are resolving, natural sounding and let your components shine.

I've been a big fan of Audiomica cables. I've heard them against some Cardas and thought them the equivalent but at significantly less $$. Lots of reviews from around the world do a search. 

Many choices...  The fact that you have monoblocks also opens a slightly different discussion.  Your amps could be individually located close to your speakers if you have interconnects long enough to accommodate that placement.  This could open up some savings on the speaker cable cost based upon length, though the savings may be consumed by changing to interconnects of adequate quality and length.  It is nice to have options.
