Cabling... the weakest link in everyone's system?

Cable design is still in its infancy, relative to all other component designs. And probably the least understood as well. I believe interconnect, speaker cable, and power cord design lags further behind all other component designs, because it wasn't until fairly recently anyone even thought different materials, and wire design could make a sonic difference. Therefore, even mega buck designs, probably have a long ways to go, before approaching state of the art.
