Howdy
Have just unplugged my 6 month old Pioneer Elite vsx-80, put it back in it's box and mothballed my Infinity rs 10's. Went and bought a Adcom pre, Adcom 5802 amp, panamax 4300 and a pair of Lsi 25's. Now for the balanced interconnects. Any suggestions, recommendationsand or average dollar amount new or used as I want good but not wasting money/over the top interconnects. Been using rca monster 800 but.... Am just starting to realize how much this fun this hobby is. Thanks.

    I use Monster brand balanced interconnects and have no complaints at all. They make a very nice balanced interconnect.

    The sky is the limit on cables and permormance will vary. I use cheap pro microphone XLR's but will upgrade soon. Check out some Audioquest cables. Also look at audiogon or used cables for some good deals.

    I use Mogami Gold Neglex from The Guitar Center for $31.95 @ 3 ft. each. I didn't care for the Cardas (Blue, I think) went with the Mogami about a year ago and haven't touched them since.
