Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money

I currently have a system which consists of Vandersteen 5A's, THor Audio TP-150 tubed monoblocks, Thor Line Stage and Thor phono stage, Marantz SACD player SA-114 and will take delivery of the VPI Prime Scout with a Sumiko EVOS 3 Cartridge. I am currently using LAT International Speaker Cables, Power Cords and Interconnects. (They are no longer in business). I am in immediate  need of turntable cables and would like to update my new speaker cables and interconnects. Not willing to spend thousands on this upgrade. Seeking to capture as much of the "magic" that the super expensive cables deliver but at a more realistic price point. I understand that I have really good quality equipment, but at this stage of my life cannot allocate mega dollars towards cables.
 Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

And Elizabeth, I'm sorry but duplexes have zero effect on the sound. As long as it's gripping your power cable properly and the electricity is being transferred that's all that matters.
 It just boggles the mind how people think that that could have any effect! After it goes through the duplex and then it's rectified and change to DC then it goes through your gain stages etc. etc. 
 No I agree you are probably hearing a difference but that's purely psychological because you wasted X amount of money on the receptacle.

Hey Mr factoid deliverance, did you get the note yet?

It’s right there in front of you:

Not everyone hears like you.

The thing you reveal so far.... is that your reasoning is as lacking as your hearing.

Be a part of that 97%!

analoghugr, try substituting "listening" for "thinking"

and report your results {how many people THINK, above (9:10 am)}
