This is an article by Bob Smith of Aether Audio/NuForce Inc. Apparently Bob used to be a hard-nose, cables-make-no-difference type until he heard something that changed his mind. When attempting to discover what caused this difference in sound he heard, he did a lot of research which led to the article called "Sub-Debye Phase-Distortion - A New Distortion-Source Model for Conductors" at the link below below.
After reading the article below you may wish to read this review of a product that was created as a result of Bob's studying:

And this explanation by Bob of the "Smith Cell" technology that's part of what's inside the product reviewed above.
