Interconnects/Cables of your choice, and why?

This can include the following: 

----------------------------------------

- Balanced interconnects 

- RCA interconnects 

- TOSLINK Cables 

- SPDIF (Coax) Cables

- Ethernet Cables 

- USB Cables (USB-A)

- USB Type C (data-line cables)

-  HDMI Cables 

 

I’ll share what I use too, later on. Once this discussion post receives some responses. Let’s talk about cables for knowledge transfer and making the right purchasing decisions. Sometimes it's just fluff, other times it's the real deal.

SilverSmith Fidelium speaker cables and interconnects. Better then the super-premium interconnects in the $5K+ range at about $1K. Same for the speaker cables.

I am using Nordost Valhalla II for all cables except the XLR interconnect between my DAC / Pre amp and my power amp which is AUdioQuest Dragon.
