Signal vs. Audio Art vs. Speltz Anti? Need help...

I'm looking to get an interconnect cable (between int. amp and cd player) and speaker wire at a budget. Has anyone compared two or all three of these brands? Has anyone heard anything better at the $100 and under range outside of these brands (that has compared them to any of these brands)?

I'm intentionally not mentioning what my system comprises (partially because I haven't bought the components yet), but mostly because I'm just looking for general comparisons and otehr people's experiences. Also, to circumvent anyone trying to tell me that it's all individual based on my system, I understand that, and for those who want to tell me to audition them first, I just don't have the patience for it. I just want to buy some cables based on general recommendations. If I'm really unhappy with them, I can try and upgrade or switch later on. No offense anyone, just being honest and trying to keep things simple. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Soulgoober,
No not necessarily, what I was saying is that for that statement to be true I/you would have had to of heard every single interconnect made in that price range and I'm pretty sure neither of us has heard them all. BUT, I'd agree with you in saying that out of his three choices I'd choose the Audio Art cables, they're a great cable.

As a side note, I'm Kool Cables. :)

Best regards,
John

i have compared the audio art ic-3 to signal analog 2 and silver resolution and prefer the ic-3. another cable you might want to look into is the zu oxyfuel but again i prefer the ic-3. the kci soundbolts are worth checking into, i have the kci mandarinas that are quite a few steps above the ic-3's in performance but also a few steps above in cost.

Soulgoober,
Sorry, I missed the fact that you are the orginal poster.I had you confused with Jwatusi who made the "BAR NONE" statement. Still stand by my opinion though, out of the orginal three you asked about I would choose the AA cable. Good luck in your quest and sorry for the confusion.
Best regards,
John

I haven't done the AA and KCI (KoolCablesInc) head-to-head, but have had them both here, both are really good for their price point, both are excellent guys to deal with, I favor the flavor of KCI a bit though....I use his Silkworms throughout my rig...
