XLR cables for component connections, or from preamp to powered subwoofer

Thank yous to @erik_squires ​​​​@mike_in_nc 

My eyesight, dexterity and confidence rules out doing some things I would have attempted a few years back (such as making my own cables).  Your answers were very helpful--and I had already presumed the cables mentioned from Amazon probably would be a fine choice for my location / conditions.

Cheers to all !

IF your equipment utilizes the official balanced wiring scheme (AES47), balanced cables should exhibit little coloration, so there shouldn't be much difference between brands.

I got some inexpensive cables from Ralph Karsten. I think they were Mogami. I needed 25 feet or so.

Years later, I tried some Audioquest- at a much higher cost, only to find they sounded almost identical.

YMMV

@hz79hc - For components, take a look at Zavfino products that use OCC copper as a minimum e.g.

The Fusion - Solid Pure Silver & OCC Copper - ZavfinoUSA

- these would provide stunning dynamic performance 

- but they only come in 1.5 meter and 2 meter lengths
