How to choose the kind of cables for your system?
I would check out the mojo audio power cords check and they have demo units that are discounted for their already low prices. The owner is attentive and very interested in helping and recommending the right cables for your gear. They have a money ... 
Signal cable Analog Two IC
It's pretty good a nice warm sounding cable pretty good cable for the money. Though if you could stretch your budget around 100 you could get Grover Huffman interconnect. These are the best sounding cables I've heard including cables costing 10-20... 
What is my weak est link...? Suggestions please.
I'm not familiar with your amp exactly but I think a great is key to any system. You could get a great amp for 4k. No new speaker is going to sound fantastic without a really good amp. Not sure what you are using as a source but if you are thinkin...

6Moons.com vs. Stereo Times
I agree somewhat seems like they try and find the most complicated way they can give their opinion especially the head honcho. I find it quite irritating that they don't even list what type of gear is being reviewed. You can't always tell at a gla...
