Cables ... what's up with them?


Can't quite come to terms with spending significant amounts on cables / interconnects. Looking for moderately priced IC's, I came across Phantom Cables (at infinitecables.com; $100 for 3 ICs). Figured had to sound better than the stuff that came with the cable box and DVR I bought. A marked downgrade in audio enjoyment transpired. Which is true?

Better cables revealed weaknesses elsewhere in the system?
Have to spend WAY more to get real improvement?
I have gritty tastes

Right now I'm sold on the crap that came with the cable box

many past discussions on cables. IMO they all sound different. expensive doesnt mean better. larger manufacturers can afford bigger machines to wind the cables in more sophisticated designs. some excellent budget cables are sold by audioquest, kimber, bluejeanscables.com and anti-cables. trust your ears.
