Help - Cable for High End System - M7s and Block Audio Mono A

My friend is putting together a system and I offered to help him, but at this stage, the budget has grown far above the price points where I have knowledge of components and pairings - I could use some advice.  At this time, we are focused on neutral speaker cables.  These don't have to be end game but enough to get him listening for a long time and not limit the other components.  The speakers are the Magico M7 and the amps are the Block Audio Mono A 200.

Any suggestions in the $5000 to $12000 range for a pair of speaker cables.  The other limitations are that the cables should be flexible (not overly stiff) and not have large modules or boxes in the cable.  Thank you.

Stealth Audio Dream series (buy demo or used), or Audience FrontRow Reserve SC (more in your price range).

The M7+Block are very high level. My gut says get a ruthlessly revealing cable like from Siltech or Crystal Cable.

@12many - I suggest you start a thread on WBF as they have many with “very high level” audio chains so typically much more familiar with top cable brands. Also, are you asking for only SC, or a full brand loom of cables?

I personally would suggest albedo. They’re about as transparent as you get but with a nice analog tonality that might offset the slightly mechanical and clinical sound of magicos.

Cables, of any price, make no objective difference in the sound but they can make a huge difference in the company's profit margin. Don't believe the marketing.
