Best Speaker cable in the $400.00-$500.00 range for 2 meters


I currently have a Rogue Audio Magnum power amp, Rogue Preamp, Triton 5 speakers with 2 SVS subwoofers,
and a Cary Audio CD player. My current speaker cable is by Discovery Cable. Looking to upgrade my cable and
was recommended the Nordost White Lightening which retails for $377.00 a pair for 2 meters and the Nordost Purple Flare, both in the Leif family of Nordost for $500.00 per pair  for 2 meters. In short my budget is
 $500.00 per pair. If there is any other cable that can be recommended in my price range that my be superior
 I would appreciate any suggestions.  Looking for the best use of the $500.00.

I could make a recommendation for you, but only if you don’t mind coming in at about half your budget [without sacrificing performance, of course ;) ].
Let me know if you’re interested.
Cheers!

Try Reality Cables. I replaced my mega expensive Purist with them. Gregg Straley customizes them and cryos every cable. They sound fantastic! www.realitycables.com
 Sounds like your local dealer likes Nordost 
nothing wrong with building a relationship:-)

Make your own speaker cables from 12 gauge Duelund Tinned - copper in cotton, oil impregnated wire. Will cost less than $500 and most likely will sound better than whatever you can buy new or used in that price range (after break-in).
If you must buy a speaker cable built by a professional manufacturer, look into Cerious Technologies Graphene speaker cables.

Changing cables may make your system different but better is highly questionable from recommendations...
