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.

I can't believe Charles Miller took the time to contact me.  As a result, he turned me onto Synergestic speaker wire.  I just got of the phone with Synergestic and he was amazing and is Charles.

You guys, Charles is someone you need to listen to.  He is the real deal!

I will no longer purchase cables with hollow banana plugs. They have great contact, but bend and crack if you look at them too hard- I rotate several amps, so I do a lot of plug out/plug ins. I'm in the process of having several sets of speaker cables reterminated by the manufacturer to the better spring loaded ones. Very happy with the set that's been done, well worth the extra cost.
