Speaker Cables : Moderate priced

I am about to embark on upgrading speaker cables ( long over due ).  Currently use Tributaries 12 awg UL copper cable.  I need a long run for one speaker ( about 20 feet) and this has impacted the budget.  I hope to spend around 1500 dollars.  Looking for a musical tonally rich sound.  I am not a detail nut.

Looking at the usual options:  triode Wire, Audio Art Copper, Ice Age, Luna cables to name a few.

Wonder what the crowd has experienced in this price range; and open to new suggestions.

I would have a careful look at DHLabs cables. These are my goto budget cables and interconnects. Many folks will recommend them, top notch, reasonable cost.

I have run long runs of very good and high quality single ended and balanced and both sounded great.

Have you considered locating your amp next to the speakers and using a long interconnect between the preamp. This is the traditional break strategy. Shorter speaker cables are preferred.
