Short interconects,cable for a small class d amp and a dac's close to each other + an audio switcher

Pc to topping E30 inakustik excellence usb, then from the dac to my audio switcher wbc gotham, unfortunally i don't seem to be able to find my 30cm wbc cable and therefor use a 60 cm cordial cable from my audio switcher.

Using cordial from my dac to my audio switcher and to my dac (same cordial model just different legth) seem to effect the highs a little and i want the same cable from the dac to my audio switcher and to my amp to be the same, since my dac,tape deck and turntable is something i don't use that often i don't mind different cable since they all have different sound signature compared to my dac which i use alot for tidal hifi,ypoutube and streaming, often a turntable have a more warm sound.

What i wanted to try is Sommer Cable Basic+ HBP-C2 0.3 and 0.6 meter cable since it's a little more expensive than the cordial cable, if better,makes a difference i don't know ( to get another wbc cable from amazon.de could take a month. Reply from The Cable Market who sells wbc on amazon.de. With resurgence of the pandemic due to the Delta variant, we are experiencing an unforeseen delay in the collection/acquiring of the prerequisites to sell in Germany. However if all goes according to plan, we should be able to have the 1st new stocks of cables in Amazon Germany warehouses by the end of September (in about a months time) :)

Not so much if it makes a difference in my system but more what matches sonically very good with a class d amp (sabaj A20 A) around 30 cm and 50-60cm that don't cost a fortune, mabye something expecially made for class d amp, short legth, since most use a ultra compact dac with a ultra compact class d amp sometimes an audio switcher and therefor you often need cable with a max legth of many well known brand like audioquest,qed, chord shortets cable, which is typical 0.5 or 0.6 meter, i don't need more than but also need,want something shorter from the same brand/model.

Cables don't match sonically.

Buy any reasonably priced, but well built cable. You won't experience different sound.

The only sound that fancy cables produce is the piercing, raspy fanfare of the cable company owners new Ferrari.

To reply more helpfully:

The cables you link to seem appropriate. I use these guys occasionally and have never been disappointed:
