Since all you want to do is try it in balanced mode - and it's a worthwhile experiment - get a pair of Mogami interconnects from Markertek. They are very well made with Neutrik XLR connectors and are fairly thin and flexible - easy to route. They make thousands of these a month for pro-audio and they have no flaws.
The Mogami 2534 Neglex Quad Cable balanced interconnects from Markertek are $50 for 2m pair. You can't beat their service either - usually shipped the same day. These are very neutral sounding interconnects and even if you upgrade them one day, you will have a nice benchmark and a spare set of cables. Always useful.
John Marks of Stereophile thinks very highly of the Mogami interconnects. I run them between a BAT preamp and Lamm ML2.1 SETs
