Good USED Speaker Cable Choices for $300-$500 ?


With SO MANY Cables out there where do you start?

I am looking to create a warm "Brit" sound that is
polite yet rises to the occasion with punch when
called upon. Maybe a little rounded on the details
in favor of musicality and general warmth. (to me
warmth is the same as saying slightly dark)

My suspects for good (USED) 5-6 foot speaker cables are:

Analysis Plus Oval 9
Purist Audio Aqueous
XLO

What seems to be the best bang for the buck Speaker
Cables out there USED in the $300-$500 price range
which might promote the kind of sound characteristics
I describe??

Thanks..

Yes I have read Cardas is warm but I they get expensive
quick. What model of Cardas are you recommending and
would that model beat the likes of the 3 I listed?

I figure some of the Uber expensive brands that have lower
priced models may not complete with the high-bang-for-the-buck
brands like Analysis Plus.. I could be completely wrong
here.. I'm just thinking out loud..

TVAD:

You traded $2000 dollar cables from Purist and Cardas to
buy $275 cables? Do tell... This sounds remarkable that
a small-time shop would have the engineering budget to
topple $2000 cables for such a small price..
