Neutral Sounding Silver Cables?

I'm looking for a new/used xlr cable to go between my Aesthetix Calypso preamp and my recently acquired Aesthetix Atlas amp. Aestetix recommends Kubala Sosna cables....and I'd love to get a pair of used Emotions, but they're a bit out of my price range for now. I'm guessing that the Kubala Sosna Emotion is a relatively neutral cable...so I've been doing some research on used cables and am looking for something less than 1k in the used market. I couple of cables sparked my interest: Siltech 550i or 770i as well as the Kimber Select 1130. Both of these cables incorporate silver. Any comments regarding these two cables? Any suggestions for cables with some silver that are neutral with bass response?

Which model in the pranawire line? I've only heard and subsequently bought some Ocellia reference silver cables.

I have had the Nataraja and Cosmos IC's. The Cosmos SC. The cosmos series is certainly "cleaner" sounding than the Nataraja. However, in my system, I like the Nataraja better as it is less focused and sounds more spacious... to me. I just picked up some Prana Satori PC's (copper) and they too are incredible to say the least.

I have not heard the "deva" series nor the "avatar."

I have owned the AZ absolute IC/SC and Nordost Valhallas IC/SC as well. No comparison.

Very hard to find any Pranawire on the used market due to their limited production (mostly....) and outstanding sonics.
