Best "Giant Killer" Value Cables For...

I realize there may be other threads on this topic, which I haven't located yet - but, if someone can direct me to them, I would appreciate any help you can offer.

Or... in the alternative... please let me know your thoughts / experiences with the Best "Giant Killer" Value Cables to connect to a Class D Audio amp, and class d powered sub.

Looking for RCA interconnects, Speaker cables and power cable. I'm one who believes you reach "diminishing returns" very quickly with cables - so, I'm unwilling to spend a King's Ransom on cables.

That's why I'm considering Blue Jeans Cable, Better Cables, Signal Cable, maybe some others in that context.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

I have blue jeans speaker cables and rcas. IMO they are the best value for money. Custom lengths, nuetral, low cost, fast shipping and they have a new machine that welds the wire directly to the termination to ensure tight fit that will never come loose.

I also own audioquest type 4 which are IMO also an excellent value. They are a little bit better than the blue jeans, but a little more expensive too.

For class D amp you might look at cables that have a little fuller lower midrange such as Acoustic Zen Satori that I use with class D Rowland 102 amp. They are about $350 used for standard non-biwire 8 feet pair.

Silver Resolution from SignalCable are very good. XLR, RCA, Speaker or Powercord, these are very good ones.

Reality cables from Gregg Straley are very much as their name implies: delivering an impressively natural and complete sound picture.
And, if you can find Auricle Audio Design from Joe Mazzaglia, another truly high value brand.
These each have consistently enhanced enjoyment in a variety of my systems. Plus, each have been able to provide "wow" experiences.with favorite recordings.

I second Ejlif's recommendation of Grover Huffman's cables. I have tried the cables you suggest along with some other higher priced offerings. It wasn't until I put his speaker cables and interconnects into my system that I appreciated a cable could do more than just sound different from whatever it replaced. His cables placed the music and the listening experience way beyond the sound. Greater emotional engagement, more toe tapping and chair dancing, and longer listening sessions. Power cables next. Grover seems like a really nice guy to boot.
