Best copper interconnect cables


I am looking for a pair of copper wire interconnects for my new reference preamp...but the choices that are given to me make me wonder what is the difference.
I have seen outfits that offer continuous strand copper wires, OFC copper wire and other things with wide range of prices from extremely affordable such as the Vampwires to the ridiculous. What is the true story of copper and its qualities?

My preamp is a First Sound Paramount Hotrod MKII
my amp is a DNA 225

The most I would consider spending is $300 for the interconnects with RCA plugs (1-2 meter run pairs)

Best? In my 3 years of surfing the net looking at audio related stuff, I have found that there is no such thing, but you already knew that didn't you? :)

The point at which I cried uncle was with either Signal Cable's or Heartland Cable's Belden 89259-based audio interconnects. Really, the only difference between the two is that Heartland (Dan) uses Eichmann Bullet Plugs and Signal Cable (Frank) uses Scosche Platinum RCA's. At about $50 per meter, one can hardly go wrong, especially as both guys are absolutley fantastic.
