I think some cables are just a little too expensive.
Transparent makes some very good low cost cables...and yes, if you have a 7 figure system in a custom room, no budget restraints, top of the line Transparents might be a perfect match...

What George said is the USA $ price. Varies a little every day   
Pass XA 25 versus Parasound A21+ - anyone compare?
Reno has them now...my only guess is that you will pretty quickly know which you prefer once you try both in your system...both are very popular and well reviewed, though clearly have some that do not like them at all, never ever...

Is my Reel to Reel worth anything?

Is my Reel to Reel worth anything?
it’s a fairly hard to find model, though could take a long time to find a buyer...there are very very many vintage reel to reels on ebay...it would also need to be working well now, as that deck is not that collectible

Pass X-250.8, X-250.5 or XA-30.8...or?
I agree with what Pass Labs told you, though I think the XA160.8 has no disadvantages with the X250.8, as it is 3X more expensive...a more comparable comparison would be the X350.8 and the XA60.8...there seems to not be agreement on whether the X3... 
Pass X-250.8, X-250.5 or XA-30.8...or?
XA160.8 way better than X250.8 which I owned for a long time and liked quite a lot...according to me and everyone who listened to my system...
