Speaker cable recommendations in my budget


I really hate to open this can of worms. I know people tend to be very passionate about their cables and how heretical someone else’s choice is.  But, here goes anyway.

if it matters, I have a Denon AVR4806 & JM Labs speakers. Both are about 7 or 8 yrs old. I need 8’-10’. I really only want to spend less than $150 but, I’d go to $200 if there some phenomenal cable that would rock my world.

On the site & in that range are: AntiCabled, Schmitt, PS Audio, Audio Quest, NBS Serpent, Harmonic Tech & Audio Quest Serpent.

Do any of you see the glaring top 2 or 3 I should pick from? There’s now real audio shop around me that sells this stuff.

PLEASE: Don’t recommend dumping my receiver or speakers & no fights.

How would I make my own?  I see all these descriptors like “cryo treated” & all kinds of other “balanced” & treatments.  Seems way above my head.
Thanks for the link.  I thought “making them” meant I’d be braiding wires, shrink wrapping covers over a bunch of wires & measuring spacing of braid lengths or other horrifying complex things.  I might just try it but, I’m kinda unhandy.  Thanks everyone.  I am curious what people think about milercarbon’s suggestion related to BDR cones. 
I’ve heard a lot of good suggestions on models & I appreciate the recommendation of isolating cones.  Do I have to worry about fake cables on EBay?  They find fake headphones & earbuds all the time.  Thanks for a of your suggestions,
