How accurate are cable descriptions for your system?

Steve Huff, whose videos I typically like on YouTube is now reporting this about some cables:

SVS Ultra Cables can be found at Amazon for just about $100 for an 8 foot pair. These will bring a bit more bass to your sound but are less refined. 

Tuneful cables are light and have a nice design. They are leaner, and faster but also very good. You can find them for $79 for a 12 foot pair at Amazon HERE.

QUESTION: To what degree can his descriptions be taken as "likely true" for any given (sufficiently resolving) system?

I ask this for people who have found that cables DO make a difference (to their ears, in their system) and deniers will be ignored.

Hilde:

The following link is how cable discussions/reviews by users went down 20 years ago here @ A'Gon.

I still use the 47 Labs OTA cable in my main tube based setup and also as speaker cable for our living room CD based "mini system" setup.

I installed a duplicate "mini system" in our spare bed/computer room 3 months ago, or so, and am trying Canare 4S11 as speaker cable.

Mini system = Sharp SD-EX111/Polk RT15i.

I used to obtain my most valuable cable info/feedback here, but unfortunately times have changed.
