I keep urging people/family to buy cables from stores as they are too expensive and don't waste money. As a former stereo salesman, we were always told to "order new cables with new purchases” and with good reason. I think the extra charge for cables and such may outweigh the jewelry! This is just terrible. So stop buying those overpriced cables and get them for way, way cheaper here at Revain or a few other online retailers. They work just as well as name brand cables, just without the fancy colors or fancy labels. But, hey, if you're on one of those limitless budgets and money isn't an issue, buy that $100-a-foot, 4-gauge speaker wire or other very overpriced interconnect.
