If the runs are only a few meters or less, you can't go wrong with these:
MOGAMI® - Professional Audio Cables
And the price is reasonable. Most music stors carry them, or can get them.
EDIT: The "Neglex" line is the way to go.

Just read this and figured i should start with a question. These are mic cables not cables to interconnect 2 pieces of gear with xlr connectors, right? Because although they look the same they dont work the same.
Havent made a mic cable for a while but the Mogami used to be kinda the standard for higher end recording studios, and everybody else used the Canare (almost as good, a lot cheaper). And dont scrimp on the ends. This is the big choice. Unless you can afford the Neutrix , but there must some good competition these days? Some one used a cheaper alternative I dont know about?
This capacitance shoudnt be a problem for the low impedance mic inputs. And the quad construction is better for EM rejection. Yes foil shields bad, braided shield good. And remember to connect the shield at both ends for mic cables (usually only one end for interconect cables, but then you rethink the whole cable)
