what cables for Krell 300i and Revel M20 suggest

I am going to be running a Krell s300-i integrated amp to a pair of Revel M20s and using a Rel Sub for a studio recording playback monitoring system. The main source would be a Metric Halo LIO 8 converter. This is to monitor my own recordings.

I need a set of interconnect to run from the LIO 8 to the Krell amp and a set of speaker cables to the Revel M20s. Any suggestions that might sound good with this setup. I imagine this sound to possibly be on the tighter brighter side and was thinking maybe a cable like MIT would fit the bill? I've tried tons of cables over the years. Just wanted to see what sort of suggestions I might get from others who may be familiar with what this system might sound like.

I have always found cables to almost like an EQ of sorts. You don't want a dull cable on a dull system but in the right system a duller sounding cable can be perfect.

I have owned a Krell 300I, I am going to get another one for second system, I used the Taralabs-The one, interconnects and speaker cables, absolutly does not sound bright!, very, very, good sound, these cables will make you not believe what is possible with the krell 300I, I still have these cables, I am going to use them on the next 300I, currently, I am building on the main system that is costly and saving the Tara the one cables for that intergrated amp, cheers.

I am very pleased with Analysis Plus cabling in my system. I use Solo Crystal oval interconnects and Oval 9 speaker cable. I run a pair of Revel F30's, driven by Pass electronics

I ended up grabbing a set of Grover Huffman speaker cables I saw listed. I have those in my main rig and they are super value cables.

Chayro, I might just try the cheap blue jeans cable. I think it would be a good point of reference for me. I've heard a lot of guys mention it. I would love to be able to tolerate a lower priced cable like that. I haven't really found one yet. Grover is as close as I've come.

Someone above mentioned Blue Jeans Cable. Do they actually make cables, or just sell them?
