Having been in Audio over 35 years and owning a Audio store
in the UK  cables by A Looong margin have the highest profit margin  in some cases betterThen  10-1 vs cost , then the factor 
of hours , sometimes claims of a week building   is truly stretching it too many tea breaks.
and $ 5 digit plus prices ? Even  in the U.S $3-4K  for a 2m Power cord give me a break . I am sure it sounds good ,but waay over priced. if you have that much to blow  it could be better spent elsewhere !!
My cables are so thick I cant place them on earth.  The weight would cause the orbit around the sun to change.  I listen to it outside the solar system.  It costs me a bit extra but it is worth every penny.
There's a point where high-end audio becomes more of a jewelry business than audio.  Case in point, Absolute Sound not even mentioning Benchmark in their list of good DAC's. The problem with DIY stuff is that it looks too much like seashell earings and beaded necklaces.

BTW, I bet some cable manufacturers are guffawing over the accusation that they might have a 100% markup.
