@firstonetallguy I second just about everything ghdprentice has to say. That said, as I’m late to the party, I’m very surprised nobody has yet mentioned DH Labs Silver Sonic cables. They sell direct, and they engineer and build their cables and connectors in the USA. Many of the manufacturers you listed in your spreadsheet are using other manufacturers’ cables like Belden, dressing them up in fancy jackets, and adding 3rd party connectors. They’re not really engineering the conductors, dielectrics, connectors, ie the entire cable to perform a certain way the way DH Labs does. This is no way to imply that DH Labs is the best, but they ought to be worth looking into, especially at their price points.
What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly?

I am looking for good quality cables sold directly to the consumer. I am currently using no name, better than average, cables. I refuse to pay the 100 % markup of the better line of cables that are sold through middlemen. I am looking for companies that have had very good reviews.
This is NOT to be a discussion as to whether or not cables make a difference.
Thank you to all for your assistance.
