Cable recommendation between Dac and Integrated amp


I’m trying to improve my cabling between my Cambridge Azur 851 D and my Pass Int 60.

I need to stay under 750.00/used I’m considering Audience Au24 SE and Acoustic Zen Ultimate copper

What else should I consider?  BTW- My speakers are Martin Logan Montis's (electrostatics)

Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Of the two you mention (Audience Au24 SE and Acoustic Zen Ultimate copper), while I could be mistaken, isn't the Acoustic Zen Ultimate copper the balanced option of the two? Point is, I think whatever you decide, you want balanced and not SE.
The best I have found - at any price - is the Duelund 20 GA IC from parts express. 

I use it between my Schiit Yggy and my ASR integrated.

Did I mention that it's actually affordable?
I use inexpensive cabling myself between my Yggy and M6si. Specifically, I'm using Straight Wire Musicable II Level 1 XLR. I'd consider "better", but if I'm not mistaken, I've read somewhere (including this forum) that "balanced cable is balanced cable" (in the analog realm). I know there are some balanced cables that have higher capacitance and should not be used for digital, but the interconnect between the Yggy and amp is analog at that point.

I remain open minded to affordable and purportedly better alternatives.
We can give recommendations, but no one can tell you what is best in your system. e.g. I had .5 meter Wireworld Platinum series 7 XLR cables. I recently tried an Audioquest Niagara 1 meter XLR. In my system, my wife and I preferred the Niagara. I sold the Wireworld. In another system I might prefer the Wireworld.
