The sort of wire you need would have TWO internal (best of spiral wrapped about each other) wires with an external shield which is used as the ground. The new wire could also have a 'extra' external wrap for protection (as your current wire does.. that stainless steel wrap should never be used for a signal.
Actually you can make a good balanced wire set with three wires. Two fo plus and minus spiral wrapped. Then the last one spiralled around the other two in th opposite spiral direction.. Not the same twist direction as the pair.
Any insulated copper wire will do.
I have a expensive system and use a Kimber braid of four for the plus and minus, and a separate wire spiral wrapped around the Kimber for the ground.
THe wire bulk Kimber cost me about $500 for my 30 ft run. But the next better thing is $3,000. IMO
Anyway, he wire the op has is totally NOT OK to use for a balanced IC.
