Looking for some cheaper Speaker Cables-$600 or so


I am moving soon and my Kimber 8pr will now longer be long enough. I'm looking to spend about $600 used. I have read mixed reviews on Anti-Cables, and have looked at Mapleshade Double Helix, Kimber 8tc, Nordost Red Dawn etc. I'm lost as to what to go with. I originally was going to upgrade the Kimber to Transparent Super or better but at the moment the cost is too great. My gear is McIntosh MC275, BAT Vk-3iX pre, Von Schweikert VR-2 speakers, Transparent Plus and Super MM for interconnects. In my last listening space I was very happy with the Kimber. Bass was good, depth and soundstage was good too. Sometimes found that the highs could be a little harsh on certain passages. I wanted better imaging and a more extended top end. I will need about 14 to 16 foot length. Speakers are biwireable, cables don't need to be but cost of jumpers will need to be added. Any thoughts and insights would be appreciated.

Definitely Clear Day solid core silver- 8ft pair of double shotgun is $500. he advertises here
Check out Paul Speltz's Anti-Cables. I bought them after expensive cables and I am not pining at the thought of not having the high-priced spread. They just plain make all the other cable manufacturers look like con men.
I'll chime in a plug for Mapleshade (Clearview) Golden Double Helix, though I'm currently using the plus version. Quite natural sounding, and a great bang for the buck. I doubt you would find a 14 to 16 foot length on the used market, so you'd have to have them custom made (8 and 12 foot pairs are stock). Still should be well under your $600 budget.

While you are at it, try some of their recordings....pretty impressive for digital.
