What do $2500 speaker cables sound like?


Sooo curious about this.  I now use cables costing about $200 and 20 yrs old.

dont want to throw out brands, but its well known.

what can someone expect?

To me its all sooo convuluded.

It seems an understanding of how the signal is lessened as it progresses thru a cable.

therefore, to minmize this, it requires great design to overcome complex tech challenges, and this costs money, otherwise we could all use telephone wire. 
So please focus on how the signal is impacted if not treated better via more costly cabling.
@jumia,
Reading your comments it difficult to ascertain how interested you are in exploring your inquiry. As several posters have wisely suggested, you can essentially "rent" /audition cables of interest via the cable company. They are very good at accommodating this type of scenario.

Select several cables that interest you and patiently listen to them intently in your own system. Trust your ears and just listen and compare in a very familiar home audio system. How do they compared with your current speaker cables. Buy some zip cord wire and judge how it matches up with the more expensive audition cables.

I believe that you will find some cables are clearly better than others (Like any category of audio products). Most expensive is not necessarily always the best but ’generally’ speaking you’ll get what you pay for. I believe that the higher quality the audio system (Resolution and transparency) the easier it will be to hear differences amongst the various cables.

This method is the most direct and effective way to satisfy  genuine curiosity.

Plus, I believe that whatever money one has spent on renting equipment from Cable Company, that money gets put in a "pot". If you decide to purchase something now or down the road, that pot money gets deducted from your purchase price.
@devilboy,
Good additional point and further incentive if someone like @jumia truly wants to sort out the issue of cable performance/sound quality. The opportunity and resources are readily available.
