what mid priced cables should i buy?


i have a brand new integrated krell 300i and a brand new rega planet 2000 cdp and 6 months old bose 901's (speakers)
(i think those 901's r my weakest link so far)
that whole system is connected with low end cables (interconnects and speaker wires worth less than 50 bucks alltogether)
1. i want to spend 350-450 dollars for cables, any suggestions? i dont know much about cables (and frankly im quite skeptic) but i've heard that mit terminator 2 speaker wires r decend, any input?
2. is buying used cables a smart thing to do?
3. the bose speakers has an external EQ\crossover ,
that is hooked up to a tape monitor loop onto the krell 300i
that requires 2 pairs of single ended interconnects,
is it important to upgrade those interconnect as much as the interconnect between the cdp and the integrated amp>?
(should i spend the same amount of money on the tape loop I.C as the krell to the rega I.C ?)
thanks for your help
happy holidays for y'all

I SECOND SEAN!!! The speakers need upgrading badly! You could put even more expensive gear and wires and such on those speakers (no Bose bashing here...) and you'll not get your money's worth out of it!!..until you get new speakers that is. The speakers are the single biggest sonic signature in the electronics chain, and will make the most difference in overall sound.
So, what I'm seconding here is that you'd get much more milage out of your money spent on upgrading the speaks, yes!
Then, and only then, would I look into tinkering with wires...which do, indeed, make a difference in sound. Cheers
