Speaker Cable Suggestions

I would appreciate any suggestions on speaker cable choices.  I will be using the following components:
Krell Chorus 5 channel amp
Krell Foundation processor
Oppo 205 Blue Ray
Sequerra Tuner
B&W 802's & Center Channel
My budget is $1500.00 Max, I am looking at used Kimber, Cardas, Audioquest or the new Silnote Orion-M2 Master
Reference.
Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

Why not contact Used Cable:

They even have a consultation service, as well as a 30 return policy.

Before spending more, demo Audioquest Type 4.  (It even rhymes!)

Something to consider is due to the B&W’s tweeter which is very detailed and some say unforgiving, it may be best to use a stranded conductor rather than the AQ solid copper wire. Cardas, Kimber, and a used pair of Audience (my recommendation) may present smoother, more organic mids and highs.

You might want to try making your own using silver wire.
