I use pro cables (Mogami XLR) and have speakers with pro pedigree (active).
There are companies that make both pro and consumer gear (Focal, Harman/JBL, Dynaudio), for good advice I would talk to a rep or a dealer. I think consumer gear looks nicer, no comparison but your budget goes like 2-4 x farther using pro cables and active speakers. One of the top rated consumer DAC’s is Benchmark and they are noted for pro gear. Bryston is noted for consumers yet many recording studios use Brusyon gear. Skywalker sound uses Parsaound amps (they even got a screen credit in Star Wars). I think using BOTH pro and consumer gear is the ticket for bang for the buck
