I highly recommend Mogami cables assembled by imjerrys on Audiogon. He uses high quality connectors (XLR & RCA) that are much better than what you'll find on pre-packaged commercially sold Mogami.
I own a few of these interconnects (in both XLR & RCA) and they compare favorably, right up there with my DH Labs Air Matrix, DH Labs Revelation, AudioQuest Diamondback, and Kimber KCAG.
These Mogami cost a little more than what you're looking at but they're not ridiculous like some audiophile cable 'tone controls'. At a certain point, that's essentially what they are.
Good luck.

Abe;
Could you message me at your convenience if you have anymore info on "imjerrys", as I don't want to sign up for Audiogon in order to contact him.
I am specifically interested in the 2803 1 meter rca.
Thanks.

Can make those cables for $15-handsome mark up!
So...the cable and your labor is free?
You're hired! I have a coal mine for you to work. :)
All right that's enough facts, people just stating things won't work anymore if you keep that up !!! : )

Abe,
I totally agree with you on the Mogami cables. I didn't know "imjerry" did them up tho. Thank you for the info.
I too have recently switch to Mogami Gold reference XLR cable (Star wire configuration) in my system between my CD player to preamp and Preamp to power amp. I was just blow away at how quiet my system was right off the bat and really hearing things I have never heard on recordings that I'm very familiar with after 20 hours of break in. I soon will be putting more in my system and with my soon to be made SUT in balance configuration.
After hearing these cables, I will never pay or even buy Audio Grade interconnects again. I do build my own cables but its still not as cheap as just buying the Mogami cables.
Sorry for the error. :)
Thanks Abe for the link. I'm in UK, but I guess these guys will ship here.
I'm still waiting to hear from NAD (I have a UK supplied M12) how their balanced sockets are wired. If different from those of the US-built amp I'm about to purchase, I'll have to get the cables wired up arse-about-face! Or get the NAD sockets re-wired. It's a nuisance that standards vary for XLR sockets between EU and US.
Peter
Jerry will wire the cables to order and ship worldwide. Good luck!
