I will be getting my blu-ray player pretty soon, so need to hook it up to the receiver together with XA2 (and maybe even get my SACD/DVD-A player out of the storage) through a 6-channel analog switcher.
Basically, looking for 2-3 sets of budget 6-channel cables. I don't want to buy a bunch of stereo cables - way too much confusion and too many cables.
I found Acoustic Research AP-036 for $25-30/set+shipping, but would be nice to find maybe something used and better quality.

Well I do sell them cheap, but not that cheap! The AR stuff is pretty flat. In that price range I would suggest something built with Beldon Coax. Hopefully Garra will chime in.
Happy hunting
BenPlease. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
Thanks

Outside of that Acoustic Research set, there aren't many out there for cheaper than Blue Jeans. I would know because I looked. But for how cheap they are ($5 a cable) the AR set isn't a travesty. It's not the last word in resolution or tonal accuracy, but it can get the job done for a little bit, especially if it was strictly movies through them. The only other option would be a bunch of Monoprice premium stereo pairs, which is clearly out of the question. Good luck and let us know what you find.

Just my opinion,
I agree w/ BEN62670. I have a roll of SIGNATURE high bandwith coax just for making myself such cables. I have 6 analogs on my Marantz 6001 for playing DVD-A and the spaciousnous and transparency blows my polk brain. Especially Weather Report tribute DVD-A. wow Cables are EZ to make and gives me alot of satisfaction that I didn't pay $$$ for MONSTER CABLE (SCAMMMM)
