I can recommend a couple of DIY recipes (also available pre-assembled) using shielded Belden cable and high quality connectors that don't break the bank. The least expensive option uses 19364 SJT cord and is available from DIY Cable. I use a pair of these on the speaker power supplies. A step up uses 83803 which is both larger gauge and is double shielded. I made one of these which I use either with my preamp or CDP. The recipe can be found here.

Both are also available either in components or finished form at Zebra cables.

You'll note these don't have to be terribly expensive and I've found them to be a step above low end commercial stuff which is more of a cosmetic enhancement than anything else. The 83803 cable, however, is pretty stiff!
