That's what I'm trying to find out by trying some megabuck cables (well, at least to me they're megabuck -- between $500/meter/pair to $900/meter/pair). I'll provide all the details in the reviews, but so far I've listened to the Acoustic Zen Silver References (~$900/meter/pair) for about a week, and then just installed the Tara Labs RSC Air1's (~$700/meter/pair) -- and it'll be a fairly long-term tryout for all of them -- and so far I'm very impressed by both. Of course, both of these manufacturers are held in high regard by most of the hi-fi community.
