Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

Thinking of buying some new speaker cables.
8' long, not bi-wired. Speakers: Linaeum 10, Nominal impedance: 8 ohms, goes down to 6 ohm but nothing difficult. Sensitivity: 88dB.

I'm considering BJC Twelve White Speaker Cable
or
Supra Classic 2.5.

Thoughts?

In my experience, Blue Jeans cables are a fantastic baseline.

Can anyone recommend a good quality nylon braided balanced 4.4mm or modular with 2pin connector cable?

ps: Their ZiSin-27 (non-modular, lighter in color) cable is quite nice, especially for it's real price of $9.9. This time though they are not hiding the code.

Next batch of cables have been in for a week or so...

NiceHCK SnowCat: Very nice Silver plated OCC cable with a lift in bass and treble. Resolution seems to be about average for an OCC cable. It's not quite as nice sounding as my Tea 2's stock 6n OCC Silver Plated cable, but it is built much better, is very light and flexible. I think it's a great on the go cable.

NiceHCK LightLove: This is definitely the most resolving cable I've heard so far. It is completely neutral across the board with great resolution and a lil extra snap to dynamics. Enjoying it 👍

NiceHCK GreenMood should be waiting in the mailbox when I get home from work...

I know this thread is mostly about IEM cables but I'm looing for RCA and XLR cables, my budget would be 20 - 50 euros / cable.

I kinda wish there was a thread like this on interconnects as well. Most of the cables I have are Mogami and Canare. After hearing the quality of some of these AE iem cables, I've thought about trying some of the RCA and XLR cables on AE from brands like SKW, TODN, ATaudio, Erumpent and a few others to see if they're much of an improvement.
