I would highly recommend making your own cables. I bought mogami cables (ie: 2932 snakes, 2534 quad mic cables, 2524 instrument cables) in bulk along with neutrik connectors (xlr, db25, etc), shrink wrap and nylon sleeves and saved a ton of money making them myself. You can find these online for pretty cheap (ie: redco)

Soldering XLR cables is very easy (connectors are gigantic) and will be very quick after making a few. I must admit that it was a bit more challenging to solder DB25 snakes, but you also have the option of crimping them if you want.

If you're up for it, going this route will save you a lot in the long run.
