this post is needless as OP is apparently a sorcerer now. if you can hear differences enough to spend massively, your choice. I have on the other hand had experiences with friends who are cable pilled and they have let me borrow their cables and they even set it up with my system and I was totally blindfolded and I came out of the experiment more staunch in my doubt of cables doing anything when there are more present issues such as room/speaker coupling, listening distance, speaker itself being tonally coherent and so many more factors have precedence before one should even think about cables.
So my cable denial is rooted in actual experimentation that was done with my cable loving friends and acquaintances and I have ended up converting all but one. Doesn't mean I stop being friends with them.
