How much money for your next interconnect cable???

I believe there were time people just looked at you and shout " you are crazy" when they heard how much money you have to paid for your interconnect cables. Even more so if they found out how much money we reselled them on audiogon after a short period of time (same thing happen to our audio component). And it will freak them out if they know again how much money for your next purchases. I know we just laugh and ignored their disbelieve. Anyways, do you plant to buy your new interconnect cables? If so, what is your budget and how do you gain your wife or significant patner acceptance!??!?!!!

Please include brands, models and why do you think this/these cable/s will improve your system.

My system include: Krell KRC-3, Krell kav-1500, krell FPB-200, CJ DR-1, CJ premier-11, Bench Mark DAC-1, Classe SSP-60, Sony DVD 9000ES, VPI scout Sig, Theil 3.6, Triangle Tratos Luna, Definitive Tech Ref, PS power plant-600, Shunyata Hydra 4, Monster HTS-5000s, Kimber Hero cables, Nordost Heimdall, Nordost Blue haven, Tranparent Ultra XL cables, Mit Shotgun cables, PS audio-Extream power cords.

I respect Stewie's opinion and understand where he's coming from because there IS a huge amount of BS out there. But I believe there are cables that sound better than others. And as Audionuts points out they may not be the most expensive.

After years of experimentation (including much more expensive cables) I'm currently using Gabriel Gold Revelation ICs and bi-wire speaker cables with great satisfaction. These were purchased right here on Audiogon. No real advertising, no outrageous claims or hype just a very nice product. Quite refreshing!

Rja, I very much appreciate the cordial response. Almost makes me want to shell out a grand and trip out into aural Shangrila! Now if anyone wants to comp me on those magic cables, I promise to give them a good listen. Until then, I'll have to make do with my new on-sale-for-$9 Monsters, which I heard someone call, and this hurts so so badly, the Bose of cables. Cheers.

One of the benefits of working at Radio Shack I suppose.

Leica_man: if some manufacturer shows up with a $10,000 (or more) ultra high end SOTA space age etc. superconductor, there would always be someone who buys it (even if it would have a pricetag of $20,000). In short: there is no budget limit with regard to audio (if you have the cash), so Audionuts' question is in fact irrelevant.
