Audible differences between speaker cables?

I'm a newbie to speaker cable issues. My analytical side says that there shouldn't be much difference from one type or brand of cable to another (given that they are low enough resistance to provide a high damping factor). Nevertheless, there are some strong opinions to the contrary. What audible differences are there from one type of cable to another?

None worth bothering about.

But if you want to find out for yourself, how about taking some 1$ per metre OFC speaker cable and demoing it against the most expensive one at your dealers?

 I"d love to hear about your experience.

I found that once a person doesn't believe in cables, it's really a waste of time to convince him or her.
