Quality Budget RCA Interconnects

I'm looking to complete the set up of my first HiFi system and one of the last pieces of the puzzle is a decent interconnect. I'm not really looking to spend more than $40, but I'd like to find an interconnect that takes that 40 bucks as far as it can go. My set up is as follows:

B&W 685's
Jolida 1501 RC
Music Hall CD 25.2

Any thoughts, suggestions, offers, etc. are apreciated. Thanks in advance for helping out a newbie.

But their capacitance is quite high at 108 pf/foot...

Then one can choose the ART "Blues" interconnects at 19.9 pf/foot
($22/ 1 meter), or the ART "Classical" at 66 pf/foot ($90/ 1 meter).

They all use Mogami OFC wire. The "Classical" and "Jazz" use quad geometry.
The "Blues" does not.

I've used the G-snake. Its a very solid option.

Older MIT terminator 2 or 4 used are other very good options to try overall.

DNM Reson is another I like with a different, somewhat warmer and more "British" sound, much like B&Ws, that can work nicely in systems that can use that.

AR cables are quite good for the money, and AQ cables for sale at HCM audio are a bargain.
