Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

Not quite, IMO ...

It is the capacitance of long ICs that matters ... inductance is not really a factor due to the low currents involved. Neither is R ... viz. the VdH carbon ICs which have a high resistance, relative to copper or silver wires.

OTOH, with speaker cables it's low inductance which is the key - because of the high currents involved. High capacitance doesn't influence the sound ... but it might send your amps into terminal oscillation!! :-))
