Are DIY, CAT5 cables really that good?


I sold a nice pair of SignalCable loudspeaker cables after I made a pair of CAT5 loudspeaker cables at home. I thought, why should I spend so much when for cheap I can have a great set of cables. Now I am starting to re-think my decision and maybe I didn't give the comparison enough time to sink in.

What is the story with CAT5 cables in good, high-enda audio?

Hey I am seriously considering making a set of CAT 5 cables.......is it woth the time and effort? Will these cables be better than my standard off the spool monster cable wire? Is there an advatage to using CRYOed wire? If I do not use the CAT 5 I am planing on either Audioquest or Transparent..........any thoughts????

P.S. I am running ROTEL's RSX-1067 along with the RDV-1040 and my speakers are Kenwoods(main) BOSE(center)sucks... and sony(rear)........I am planing to upgrade to ALL B&W 804N,HTM2, and thinking using the 805N for the rears????
I just started into this high end stuff any help would be great thanks, Joe
