In general, a good quality shielded cord is a good pick for digital source components.
For power amps, it’s current delivery capability that might make a difference.
Otherwise, it’s much harder to predict results with any particular cord. May be little or no difference.
Analog Preamps? Turntables? Most any good quality cord that makes a tight connection is cut out for that job...it’s not that hard. Shielded cables are still a good idea especially if a low level phono stage is involved.
Price is never a reliable indicator for many reasons.
