Low Volume Listening - XLR Cables ??

I'm building a small system intended for low volume listening, primarily in the evenings. 

My Amp and Pre/DAC are Bel Canto and I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions for XLR interconnects between them that might perform particularly well at low volume levels..?

Budget is $1-1,000 new or used.

Speakers are Audience The One and source is Tidal through Amazon Echo/Bluetooth.

Thanks..!

@oldtiger Really interesting suggestion with the Mogami Gold. Absolutely worth a test drive.

DIY with pure silver, Connex brand from Parts Connexion.

This will cost you under $100 for a pair. Come back and tell me if you find any cables at all worth more than that after.

Circling back: I got a great deal on a pair of Nordost Frey 1 XLR cables. 

They seem to fit the bill nicely..!

Thanks for all the ideas.

(I ordered and cancelled the Mogamis, twice, when I was debating the Freys).

“I can guarantee some XLR ARE BETTER at low level detail than others”

Can you back up this “claim” with some data? Your guarantee has little value unless you’re willing to compensate the OP if he finds otherwise.
