I don't fully subscribe to the "cables make a difference scenario," but have splurged on expensive cables despite that. In system to system comparisons, with cable x vs y, it's very difficult to validate any improvement, other than your ears. In my system, the less expensive cables imparted 0 difference, which in my case was good. As they cost 1/2 the price of the Shunyata's.
I suppose the point is I was able to achieve equal results with a cable that cost significantly less.
