Cable Recommendations for Entry Level

I am a newbie to this forum and starting to learn just a tiny bit about better equipment. I just upgraded my junky old technics tt to a new REGA RP-1. I have some old JBL 4312A monitor speakers and am currently trying to get hold of a NAD 3020A integrated Amp. My CD player is nothing special. Just wondering if anybody can recommend a reasonable step up from my old radio shack speaker wire...

The Pioneer Elite PD D6 is actually the SACD player that I have. I purchased it new from Pioneer on a closeout price. There is a newer version for about $700.

I am a fan of Joe Mazzaglia's Auricle interconnects, I think they are top value. Haven't tried his speaker wire, my entry level choice for that would be Audioquest Type 4.

When you get your NAD, replace the pre out/amp in jumpers on the back panel with a short length (as short as possible) of good interconnect. Not expensive and very worthwhile.

I agree with Jdombrow about buying used cables (here on
Audiogon). You can find affordable cables from Tara Labs, Kimber or even Monster Cable that will improve your current
R/S wire.

Nothing will touch the Morrow MA1 at that price range period!
