a bit newer Kimber cable that are too short for my current configuration.

I use Signal Cable and have some Raven Audio cables as well as Blue Jeans Canare 4S11 cables.

 

Love the Signal Cable IC, PC and Speaker cables. 

It's inevitable that everyone will post about their favorite cables. I'm no different. I'm partial to Nordost products. All power cords, interconnects and speaker cables in my system are Nordost. 

I've been an audio hobbyist since the early '80s. I was also in audio retail for years. I've owned cables by many different manufacturers. I won't list them now because I don't wish to disparage anyone. What doesn't work for me might be just fine for someone else.

In My Experience, Nordost cables pass more information and editorialize less than other cables. I urge you to seek them out if possible. Also, I believe in using cables of the same manufacturer throughout the system.

Honorable mention to Analysis Plus and Shunyata cables.

Good luck!

 

As previously mentioned... DH Labs & Wireworld. Many different price levels to select from. Audio Envy interconnects & power cords are a great bang for the buck, as is the Audience Forte F3 power cord.  Around $160 for the Forte F3 & it competes with cords at twice the price. Highly recomended for the money. I have all of those brands in various systems.

I use Synergystic Research digital cable and interconnects. But I use Nordost Tyr speaker cables because I came across an incredible deal on them for my 4-meter requirement.  I tend to mix and match  Shunyata and Synergistic Research in the power department.

Don't waste money on uber expensive cables. Just for the heck of it I bought a pair of Canare 4S11 Quad speaker cables for US65 including postage to Australia from the USA on Ebay to try against much, much more expensive Nordost cables and Morrow cables. I couldn't hear any difference so the Nordost and Morrow were sold. If YOU can't hear the difference don't spend the bucks.
