Long XLR recommendations


Hi all, due to a wifely requirement I have to run balanced interconnects about ~30 feet.  These will go between a BAT VK-3ix and Liberty Audio B2B-100s running mono.  Ready made cables would be prohibitively expensive for an approx. 10m run so I'm looking at DIY. 

I've previously tried Mogami and Canare but haven't been too impressed, they both seemed a bit dull and lacking inner detail.  I've built several cables using Furez FZ162AA that I liked better than the Mogami/Canare but, of course, I'm looking for something better.

Trying to keep costs below $10/ft rules out a lot of cables but i don't want to break the bank.  I've been looking at Neotech NEI-3004 and DH Labs BL-1.  Would either of these be "better" to the Furez cable?  If you think there is other cable that I've forgotten please chime in.  

I plan to use DH Labs XLR connectors for these cables.  Are there other affordable XLRs that use copped conductors?

Thanks in advance for the recommendations and opinions.

The DH Labs BL-1 is a silver coated copper cable highly recommended as is Erik's suggestion too if you want all silver.
