I agree, $591 to be exact for my order. I have seen some folks locating 4.4 M2M balanced cables...but haven't heard yet how good they are.
The problem is there are very few of these out there in stock so you have to custom order the 4.4 M2M cable. I have one for sale now if anyone doesn't want to wait. Not super high end, but it does the job:
