Best cables to buy and where?

I know this has been asked a zillion times but I need some new instrument cables. I want something that's not only noiseless but is also built tough, not weak and shitty like a Monster or CBI cable. I need a long one, I guess 20, 25 or 30 feet. Could you point to the exact brand and site where I can buy the cable from?

I'm not looking for bulk cable to make it myself. I remembers someone once posted a site that sold some mogami/neutrik cables but I forgot the link.

I would look for a regular Mogami cable but they sell for so damned much. thanks for any help.

peavey makes these cables where they bind the wire to the jack with 2 tons... thats right... tons... of pressure. They dont even solder them... the pressure is so great that it heats them up and they melt together... they'll never break... not sure about sound quality though

I was very bemused as a youngster watching the Golden Girls when Blanche said she was going to "spank her fanny" I had visions of a geriatric vertical bacon sandwich red and bruised from being disciplined!!!

what's the difference between balanced and unbalanced cable? When would you use one over the other?
