Speaker Cables for Magico

I am awaiting June delivery of new Magico A3's, which will replace my beloved Von Schweikert VR5 HSE's, which simply are too big for my LR. (They will be for sale.) I use Nordost Valhalla 1 shotgun biwire speaker cables with the VR5's (a felicitous combo), which accommodate (and VS recommends) biwiring. The Magico's do not, so I will be selling the Valhalla SC's as well.
Which brings me to SC's for the Magico A3. Which cables have users found simpatico with Magico's? While I appreciate the are are few if any A3's out in the field yet, they do sport the "Magico sound" so SC's that play well with other Magico models may provide some insight on compatibility.
Thank you. Changing speakers and SC's is an anxious business -- almost like getting remarried!

I’m using a Vitus SIA-025 Mkll amp with my Magico A3’s. This may be overkill, but it sounds great. The sound is much better than with my Wilson Sabrina’s. SILTECH

Hi Neil
I had my pair of Magico A3 speakers for six weeks now. I use Siltech Royal Signature Prince on these speakers, and sounds great. All my cables are Siltech Royal Signature. I’ve had these with my Wilsons, and now on my A3’s. The only negative is there very pricey. These cables hold a high resale value. SILTECH

i agree, don't use pure silver cables. They give you a bright sound.
Almost all Siltech cables are made of silver and gold. This mixture gives great results. The other cables you mentioned are great too.
