Best cables to use for Pass Labs equip

Hi
I would like to here from any body who owns have demo or in the past had heared cables used with Pass lab gear,my system before upgrading was a Moon Ecplice Cd player,Krell 400xi intergrated power amp and Jm Lab Mezzo's I was running Nordost Smp speaker cable and Smp balance interconects ( which I think are great)and still own, I dont have the pleasure of experimenting with different brands as most because of my location I have to rely other people's opinion's which is great,I have know move into a Pass Labs X1 pre and a 350.5 Power combo,I am Currently getting my Moon souped up with all new Black Gate Caps, Diodes,resistores and clock etc,what ever way I go I need to at least get one more balance interconect to connect the pre to the power any recomendation on what they would use throuh out the system would be greatful recieved as every body has been so helpful in the past.

I am blown away by my recently acquired Chimera Laboratories Advantage Series II balanced pair which runs from my BAT pre to my Pass Aleph 30. Knocks me out - the cable simply disappeared after about 100 hours.

Looks like everyone's getting blown away by something. Maybe the new Clinton brand. Monica cable can be something we all agree on.

Doesn't anyone use "jaw dropping" anymore?

I'm using Acoustic Zen Silver Reference MkII from cdp to pre and Matrix Reference MkII from pre to amp. All XLRs.
AU24 speaker cables, although I would suggest something better, may be Acoustic Zen Double Barrel or Purist Aqueous Anniversary speaker cables.

I had the same experience as Tubes108. The Basis cables are "Jaw Dropping".
