Good USED Speaker Cable Choices for $300-$500 ?


With SO MANY Cables out there where do you start?

I am looking to create a warm "Brit" sound that is
polite yet rises to the occasion with punch when
called upon. Maybe a little rounded on the details
in favor of musicality and general warmth. (to me
warmth is the same as saying slightly dark)

My suspects for good (USED) 5-6 foot speaker cables are:

Analysis Plus Oval 9
Purist Audio Aqueous
XLO

What seems to be the best bang for the buck Speaker
Cables out there USED in the $300-$500 price range
which might promote the kind of sound characteristics
I describe??

Thanks..

oops! sorry, I misread...thought interconnects....probably not going to see too many Kimber Select speaker cables in this price range but will find the Cardas in this range.

A little out of your price range are the excellence Supra Sword cables which are an great match for that tyupical British equipment. I have seen them here for less than $600.

Yes I have read Cardas is warm but I they get expensive
quick. What model of Cardas are you recommending and
would that model beat the likes of the 3 I listed?

I figure some of the Uber expensive brands that have lower
priced models may not complete with the high-bang-for-the-buck
brands like Analysis Plus.. I could be completely wrong
here.. I'm just thinking out loud..

I agree w/the Cardas recommendation & suggest the Cross. It sometimes gets overlooked because it isn't high priced but they do a very good job.
