Haven't used Belden's quad, but have you tried out Canare's?  L4E6 is
remarkably cheap, as in cheaper than non-quad cable for many things and I
have had very good luck with it here.

I used to save a lot more jacks etc. than I do now.  Even on a tight budget
however these days it is often a much better idea for me to get new cables
two-day shipped via Amazon from a knock-off (GLS Audio is remarkably decent
for the price, even with knock off Neutrik connectors) and keep a stash of
Neutrik connectors on hand.  I keep spools of cable on hand only if I don't
have time to order the cables so I can put one together in a hurry.
