Budget Balanced Interconnects

I'm looking for a pair of reasonably priced, balanced interconnects to run between a BAT VK30 pream and an ARC VT100mk2 amplifier. Probably need about 3m length. Used or new - doesn't matter, but don't really want to spend more than $300. I'm wondering about Innersound cables, which are really reasonable ($80 up to 10 feet). Anyone know these? In general, I do like the Harmonic Tech truthlink IC's. Can I reterminate a pair of speaker cables into balanced IC's (perhaps add shielding???). Thanks for your input!

Pardon all, but my search abilities were not up to snuff. It really helps when you choose to search on "match all words" rather than "match exactly". Anyhow, I found the answer I'm looking for at [this thread ]. I'm going to try out the Innersound cables - such a deal!

I tried a set of the Signal Cable "2" interconnect. It runs about 50.00 for 2 ft and 4 bucks for each extra foot. I was amazed at how good it is for that price. It easily blows away Homegrown Super Silver, which I thought was pretty good. It comes with a money back guarantee, so you can't loose. I did comare it to Acoustic Zen Silver Refrence, and it's not that good, but the Zen cables are 20x the price.

Unless you are really pushing for the absolute sound you would be very happy with Signal Cable.
