Best Budget interconnect cables for cd to preamp

Looking for the best buy for the money new or used interconnect cables for a Cambridge Audio 640 CD player to a Cary AE3 mkll preamp. Looking for RCA 1 meter length or .75 meter. Oh yeah, and I would like something in the $100 range. There are so many on this site, I'm lost and most of them are several hundred or much much more. Thanks Rich

Mrjstark offers great advice with the Acoustic Research if you don't need to spend $100. I have quite a few pairs of them and don't feel I'm missing anything. Yes I also own some hi-end level ICs but could live happily with only the ARs.

Tried so many budget cables I can't name em all. By far, the Speltz Anti-Cable IC's were the best. In fact, as I moved up into ever more expensive cables, I could always put the Anti-Cables back in and end up scratching my head wondering how they can sound so good for so little money.

Signal Cable is tough to beat for the price. Have gone through many cables over 40 years and these are very very good.

DanLib is right on...anti-cables by Paul Speltz cannot be beat. Get the Eichman connectors.
