I think some cables are just a little too expensive.

That is obscene. But to a billionaire, mere change. The more people we allow to amass wealth, the more these type of products will come to exist.

The more people we allow to amass wealth,

Allow? You got me on that one. I think the cables are way overpriced, BUT allow to amass wealth.  In a free world that's the only thing I want to see, no one allows anything....Hard work and save your money...Allow?
Strange choice of words. Maybe I misunderstood.

Your saying the technology will filter down. In the 90's everyone was going nuts for digital systems because jitter was a real problem. Mark Levinson DAC's and transports were the best. But Toslinkc do and still tends to suck. What the big boys were using was an AT&T fiber optic system.. I mean they had to have their own interface chassis that contained a master clock to prevent jitter that the fibers from the DAC  and transport interfaced. Funny thing is the discs sounded horrible. 24/192? That was science  fiction back then. dCS still does something like that with a their Vivaldi 4 box -system, but that's dCS. When you're the best, you're the best. So yeah when you look at it that  way. BTW  digital will never out do vinyl. For years audiophiles have been saying that digital will get so good, it'll put the debate to rest, Hasn't happened yet. Because analog keeps getting better too. The audiophiles pressings, the advance in cartridge design. If you properly clean and use Last Record Preservative, if you clean your stylus and put Stylast on it, your records don't wear out. One more quick one: I went to a used record store in Chicago. Place had a good rep. It was all garbage from garage sales. But he had a Bowie Ziggystardust from the 70's that was an early Mobile Fidelity mint. Took it home vacuum cleaned it, applied Last and I lost track of how many times I played it. Over 100 easy. Just used a graphite brush. When I was a kid, that was science fiction.
Peace!
