My daddario cable just started wigging out and this is like the 5th cable ive been though in 7 years. I'm hard on my gear in general. What cables should I order next in particular?

If you know how to solder, pick up a Mogami cable with braided insulation and a pair of Neutrik connectors and solder them on yourself.

I made a 25 foot cable this way about 14 years ago and it's still going strong, despite a cat chewing through the insulation at a couple spots.
