Best IC cabling under $1000 for tube system


I'm not sure of how to put together a strategy on how to find the best cable set for my hifi system.

I would like to end up with a pair of 1m rca analog IC to run between both a Musical Fidelity TriVista 21 DAC and my JOR and another pair to run between the JOR and a Valab NOS DAC. So 2 pair of analog IC's.

I need a 1m Digital IC to run between my Teac VRDS-10 and my TriVista.

I have the other USB cables from my Mac Mini to the Valab and my speaker cables, which are Synergistic Research Tesla Accelerators. I also have a couple of decent OFC Silver-plated Audiophile Power Cable + OYAIDE C-079 which I bought off EBay.

So...
2 pairs of 1m analog IC's
1 1m digital IC
.... best ones for under $1000.

Virtual Dynamics has their Nites on sales now.
I really like the Tesla Acellerators.

.... those are cables I really like but, that I might be able to find preowned here on AGON that might fit my budget. And that also makes me wonder if I should keep all of my cables from the same maker. The mix I am using now sound great.

Again, I am just trying to learn how to logically find cables that I love and will be able to live with for a long time without continually looking for something better.

I hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance.

In a single word: Morrow, especially the speaker cables, SP2s at the very least. The PH2s are very nice for phono; others rave about his ICs. I haven't found a single 'gonner who has used Morrow who disses his cables. And believe me, I've gone through his feedback and have contacted those who have bought from him to get an update on their view of their Morrows.

My tube system (which has RSA USB from MacMini to the DAC, and RSA ICs from the DAC to the pre, and RSA ICs from the pre to the tube monoblocs has Morrow speaker cables. Unbelieveable combination. I had Accelerators on that system until the Morrows. The Accelerators are now on another system doing real well there.

Otherwise, go with the SR Accelerators: awesome cables, but much pricier in comparison to the Morrows.

Yeah, I know, flame away!
