I'm looking for a pair of interconnects that won't shatter the bank....

....but I have some extenuating circumstances that may make that impossible. First things first, the interconnects both have to end in RCA Male-to-Male because I don't have an XLR option and every component uses RCA connections.

I am running a bi-wired and bi-amped system so the interconnect runs are rather long. The longest run is around 9 feet and connects my preamp to my Subwoofer In ( the Subwoofer is a Sunfire SDS-12 ). The second run is shorter but still long. It's the Subwoofer Out to the Amplifier In which is about 6 feet. Obviously, I am looking for interconnects that already have those RCA connections attached.

Any ( nice, polite and helpful ) suggestions?

I recommend Blue Jeans cables.  Excellent quality at a fair price.

If it's for subs, don't bother with expensive IC's. Get the lentry level IC's from WireWorld, Audioquest, Cardas or any other reputable manufacturer.

I really like Blue Jeans Cable for almost everything.  You can order custom length subwoofer cables from Blue Jeans Cables that sound great and also look great.   Their recommended subwoofer cable at the top of the subwoofer cable page is Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 Analog Audio Cable.  I can't hear any difference between this and my very expensive reference subwoofer cable in any of my systems except for my expensive reference system and even then the difference is subtle.

I made DIY in-wall cables for most of my subwoofers with great success using Belden 1694a coaxial cable that I ran through the walls and cut to length then terminated with F-connectors.  This is easy to do with affordable tools and even easier if you use twist on F-connectors.  To convert to RCA for the equipment at each end I added affordable F Female to RCA Male Convertors that I bought online.  I prefer the sound of the Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 Analog Audio Cable to my DIY cables but I had to swap them back and forth a bunch to hear any difference.

Let us know what you end up doing.
