Best $200 speaker cables for overall performance?

I'm with JPL1208 and Listener57 on this one. My Reality speaker cables (shotgun bi-wired, 10') have replaced other high end cables that I owned (Cardas Gold Ref, Audience Au24s, and Purist Venustas), and I have never loooked back. There is a reason why they are called "Reality". Check it out for yourself.

Gregg's service has been A-1 in my book, and I would not hesitate to buy from him him again.

Angelsmtn, I am also interested in the cables you chose over Reality cables and the differences you heard between the two. Are they cheaper or more expensive? They should at least be in the $200-$300 range. A named brand speaker cable better than the Reality cable in this price range? You have my attention!

I've seen that some others have recommended Reality and I have to wholeheartadly agree with them. Based on my experience I know of no cable under $1000 that will even touch this cable, it is that good.

---Perhaps Gregg Straley needs to raise the price of his cables to get more attention?....but he's not about taking as much money as he can even though his cables are better than quite a few seriously expensive offerings.

I was lucky enough to find a used pair of Alphacore MI2's online for under $200 - sound great so far. I'm noticing depth and decay that was missing before. (Decay is a good thing to my ears...) I'm also noticing some sibilance which I think might just be what my electrical system sounds like - running all stock power cords - I think I need to clean up the power to get rid of the sibilance. I wonder if the flat version of the alpha is picking up RFI? What can I do - wrap them in aluminum foil?!

I'm running Alpha on top and kimber 4VS on bottom of Joseph Audio RM22si's - (why, because I had an extra pair and I like biwiring...)

I've written alphacore about the missing zoebel networks and gotten no response so far...
