Long run XLR cables


Are there significant improvements to be gained by using home audio specific cables versus high quality pro audio cables such as Mogami or Monster. I don’t like frittering money away unnecessarily but I recently switched my main cables from Mogami gold to SVS soundpath when I need new subwoofer cables and I noticed a slight veil over the sound when I switched. Any thought and insights would be appreciated.

My only attempt was a 25' run XLR, inexpensive from Amazon, I returned them.

Used long RCA's, sounded great. IOW, we are not backstage with many sources of potential problems, we do not have a real need for XLR, I suggest you try long RCA, just to compare, ones you can return, you may be surprised.

I am using Blue Jean cables lowest cost XLR's for 18 ft run. They use the same connectors as the more expensive brands. 

Another vote for Mogami gold. It's a fantastic baseline to test other cables to. Mogami also has a non-DIY Platinum version which is a couple gauge larger + higher end connectors
