@stringreen ,
+1, you beat me to it.
I know AtmaSphere, Ralph Karsten, believes that differences in balanced cables brands will be minimized IF the equipment follows the balanced protocol (AES 47). And, just because equipment has balanced input/outputs doesn't necessarily mean it follows that protocol, so best to check first with the manufacturer.
I use Ralph's interconnects (25 feet) in my system and short speaker cables (6 feet) as speaker cables will impart more coloration than balanced interconnects.
