I would second the DH Labs Q-10 cables. I bought a pair for my son's system, he's 10. I bought them used here on Audiogon, don't remember what I paid, but when we got them, I couldn't resist putting them in in my 2 channel set up. I was very suprised at the performance of these cables, I know that they beat the Kimber 8TC that I used to have in my HT. I upgraded the HT to Acoustic Zen Satori's, haven't done an A-B with the Q-10's though. I personally think that you could be very happy with the Q-10's.
$200 or less 8' Run - Zu WAX, AP, Singal, Others?
Looking for used 8' run of good cable $200 or less for a more modest second system. Not trying to match components specifically (and I know cables are system dependant), except I'd like something detailed and fairly transparent with good mids (I find mids are often a missing link) -- robust lows and sharp highs are less of an issue (think vocals).
Considering AP (have had good luck with AP Oval 9s), Zu Cable WAX (good press) and Signal Cable (straightforward and a nice price reputation -- though I've never tried their speaker cable). Any experience between these
