XLR cables from preamp to powered bass amp in speaker? (Legacy Focus XD.)


OK, so doing a little research here. I am in the process of ordering some Legacy Audio Focus XD speakers later this year if my audition goes well. The bass is self powered in the the XD's and you can run XLR cables from preamp to the speakers and use speaker cables from amp to speakers to bi amp them for mid/high's.  This is how I plan to use them. So would good subwoofer cables work? I was thinking of getting some good quality Canare or Belden Pro Audio type cables for this. I use Wireworld Eclipse 8 interconnects from pre to amp as well as from my DAC. Is there a particular cable that works well in this situation? Problem is I need 3 meter set so that gets pricey if I go with some higher end stuff. I imagine the comments/feedback will be all over the place. Looking for real world experiences from that hat had tried different things for this use. Thanks!

I use a 15-foot length of the below cable for my preamp to amp. Both of those are not particularly fussy about XLR. I need to buy a 25-foot length for my second system which will use the same preamp. Good cables and cheap.
