Question recommended cable retailers

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a few online retailers that sell cables, quality cables at reasonable prices.

I did have a couple of shops bookmarked before my old PC went down and I cannot for the life of me remember their names. So any help is gratefully received.

Re: recommended cable retailers

What kind of cables is that you need?, if its just standard cables,try here: www.merlincables.com, as they now sell direct and I was talking to one of their guys the other day who said: we have a new funnel web mk3 in development and when it is released it will be priced at £100.00 direct from them and if it was to sold via high street stores think double that price, which is reasonable, given the fact the current funnelweb is about midway up their range of cables and their stuff is well built, so I doubt their current range will be shockingly expensive, however one point to note with speaker cables especially is some places sell them as sets, that are terminated in the factory and others sell of the roll, with or without connectors but the terminated sets are more expensive but they have the advantage of using the best connectors for that cable.
