XLR cables for a reasonable price?

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

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.  

I’ve tried the DH Labs XLR cables with my Atma-Sphere gear.  They sound fine but no better or worse than Mogami.  The only way you’ll know for sure is to try for yourself.  I as well as many others have.  Just trying to save you some time and money :-)

Benchmark XLR are some fine cables and cost almost nothing on a relative scale.

You definitely do not need expensive XLR cables. That link above is likely about AES48 (which I concur).

XLRs are great connectors - I've soldered up hundreds over my career and still have a few now-vintage US made Switchcraft pieces in storage. However, unless you have a true balanced system, they are an expensive vanity. Properly used, as the Atma-Sphere paper (well-written IMHO) describes, they are superior without question. Problem is the vast majority of hifi equipment isn't balanced. It's single-ended, and not intended to drive more than 3M or so of high impedance load, not 30M of low impedance. Also balanced cables are not 'louder' they are passive and incapable of adding gain. The equipment with which they are used may have different gain structures which could lead someone to that conclusion, however.
