Taking Suggestions for New Speaker Cables

Have a desire to replace/upgrade from current MIT CV2 Terminator 2S speaker cables. I have a mix of tube and solid state equipment - CODA 10.5r SS amplifier and Audio Note L3 (M3) tube preamp coupled with Totem Sttaf speakers. I have the Manley Chinook tube phono stage paired with Pro-Ject Debut Carbon turntable and Ortofon 2M Black cartridge. I'm looking at Siltech 330L entry-level cables, Nordost Heimdall, Kimber Kable Monocle X, and Cardas Audio. WireWorld also has some nice cables for consideration. Let me know what you think. Ideally, I want to keep this purchase under $1000. Used cables are totally fine assuming I can obtain banana plugs. The Totems require spades with 3/8" width in order to work - hard to find these custom size spades.

As Nonoise suggests, Tempo Electric are a bargain and I love them and had them before Nonoise did, so there!! Back @ Ya' :)
Joe Levy is excellent to work with and I agree with his philosophy.
They are worth an investigation.

Wescoman, You will now have to try every cable suggested so far, otherwise you'll always be wondering if you missed that "one" with the "MAGIC" :)
