Speaker wire upgrade??

I am running a McIntosh MC 402 to Dali Euphonia MS5 Speakers. I am using the speaker wire the dealer included when I bought the Amp - they are Ultralink Excelsior 2.4. Based on a web search these retail for around $170 or so depending on the store. They are also 12 feet and I only need 8.

I read lots about the importance of speaker wire on this site and am wondering if I could do better and spend not more than $500. Any thoughts from follow "goners"?

This wire:

or the "Across 2000" wire at $50/meter

These connectors:

I currently use the "Across 2000" and just received 2 meters of the "Nigo" wire. They are both fairly inflexible, something that may not suit. A real bargain for little work invested.
