XLR cables for a reasonable price?


I've seen lots of threads where it is stated that balanced components are "insensitive" to cables.  Does this mean that spending a lot of money on XLR cables is probably unnecessary, as it offers no sonic benefit over cheaper XLR cables?

I would like some recommendations on reasonably priced XLR cables that give excellent sonic performance.  Thanks for your replies.

@hifinut51 I have the A-S MP3 and S30 in one of my systems.  Class D being delivered tomorrow 😁 I use  Cardas Clear or Clear Beyond cables everywhere except preamp to amp.  There I use Mogami XLR made by 10 Audio.  I’ve tried Cardas between the pre and amp but think the Mogami sound just as good. Quite frankly there is no difference between the two.  Will also try with the Class D but based on what Atma-Sphere and my dealer say, I’m expecting the same results.  Try it for yourself. The cables are very inexpensive and it’s the only way you’ll be a believer. It was for me.  It’s a very nice savings to put to better use somewhere else in your system.

Start with reasonably priced XLR cables, Mogami Gold from Amazon, or maybe Blue Jeans Cables that use either Belden or Canare wire and then listen and decide whether your choice sounds good to you.  
If for some reason you believe it is necessary to try something different and possibly (or possibly not) better before going down even more expensive rabbit holes, an interesting next level up to try would be Galin Gareis’ BAV (Belden Audio/Video) Audio Cables, which are marketed as an “adaptation of the Iconoclast design work to more conventional materials with higher flexibility”, and which sell for much less money than full-on Iconoclast cables.
