Need help buying new speaker cable


My Tara Labs Apollo speaker cable broke at the negative terminal end.  I will need to replace them.  What cables would you recommend?  I would like to know what cables out there would be comparable.  I would like to upgrade but they need to be affordable. A local dealer recommended Audioquest Robin Hood’s but they cost $2,000.  I just can’t spend that much money.  I am looking at Audioquest Rocket 88’s for $1,150.  Any ideas?  I would also like to know what the sound difference be compared to my Appolo’s?  I still have a difficult time you can hear a sound difference between one cable and another.

Your local dealer should lend you cables to demo at home you need to hear it in your system  I have Rocket 88 doubled biwired in my system and they are very good if I had shorter runs I would have robin hood or william tell 
audioquest sound great with Vandersteens and Aesthetix
in your system they could be the worst choice the repair time gives you time to demo

I bought Audioquest Rocket 88 $500 and Monoprice Monolith $50 speaker cable for my Parasound w/Forte iii system. Audioquest has slightly better highs and Monolith has deeper lows. For me there's not a $450 sound difference. I kept both as I'm not fond of returning things.  I use the Audioquest on the Parasound system and use the Monolith on a Cambridge w/ Ascend Acoustic system. Happy listening.

"I compared Monolith by Monoprice 14AWG Oxygen Free Copper Multi-Strand Conductors PE Insulated Speaker Wire with Gold Plated Spade Connectors, 6ft - Pair $50 to Audioquest Rocket 88 $500.
Parasound Hint Original with Forte 3’s. Music source Bluesound Vault 2i. Audioquest Niagra 1200. Pangea Cardas power cords.
Maybe there was a slight difference in bass extension in favour of the Audioquest. Definitely not a $450 difference."

I am not going to delete my post above even if I seem like an atheist in a bible study group! In fact I have been buying and trying wire in my various HiFi systems since the late 70's! Interconnects and speaker wire. My favorites were the Verion Triaxial ICs made by Mitchell Cotter. I had six pairs. For speaker wire I used the Mogami 2477 Blue Neglex coaxial 12 gauge cable (bought a 40 foot piece from my local audio dealer for $40, cut it in half and terminated the ends).
