Budget Cables for Budget setup - pls advise

Hi all!

After weeks of research and auditioning have settled on the following kit -

My 1st Speaker Setup

Speakers: PSB Alpha B1
Amp: NAD 316BEE
DAC: HRT Music Streamer II
Source: Macbook Pro
Cables: ? (USB cable, Interconnect, Speaker Cable)

As you can see I need help with cables. My gear is really beer budget stuff so nothing too fancy. Just need cables that are decent enough for such an affordable system.

Total budget for cables: 100USD for all - USB, Interconnect, Speaker Cable =(

Many thanks in advance!

blue jeans +1 but include their locking bananas. avoid the monster or rocketfish bananas from best buy or whatever. the BJ units are much more robust. I went 10 gauge as well and had no bend radius issues. I assumed that within reason bigger wire was better.

DH Labs - top quality copper and silver, great connectors, at modest prices

Want it built like a tank - Van Den Hul are awesome!

Both are very low capacitance that will work in any system

Blue Jeans for ANY budget. Honest pricing and excellent product. They deserve to be supported. But they won't cost as much as more expensive cables. So keep that in mind.
