The Best kept Secret in Speaker Cables please?

It is intersting how a person asking about the "best kept secret in Speaker Cables" himself is asking for recommendations under $5k and yet are comparable or better than Valhalas and Transparent shouldn't solicit the type of information that he is looking for other than a person with verybigamp making a fallous straw-man argument out of it.

Thank you for your comments,
I have the Krell FPB-300 , and MTS Prelude with RABOS Subs
Infinity

XLO UNLIMITED clearly beat SPM REFERENCE Nordost in my system never heard Valhalla though the unlimited may better it also. See my reviews regarding XLO for more details.

Proy: Here is my system,

-Martin Logan ReQuests.
-Krell FPB 600.
-Krell KRC/Reference Phono.
-Sony SCD-1.
-Old VPI table, SME3009 arm, and various cartridges.
-All interconnects, Pure Note Epsilon Reference.

I also play with many cables. I still favor the Compass Lake for interconnects but only have this cable between my SCD-1 and preamp. I have tried Bogdan, Empirical, Ridge Street, and others but did not keep them. Perhaps you can borrow cables like I did to save hassle and expense.

For the Record, unless Sonic genious Identifies himself to me via personal email so I know who he is, he has never purchased from us and has never used any of our cabling. I have asked him previously to identify himself with no response. I've certainly not had any one return our cables so I'm not sure what's up here. If I am inccorect here, I will recant my statement here.
