I agree with you (the OP)
I had a mix of cables. Most were the cables tossed in the box with a new purchase of a CD/DVD/VCR player (you know, those of the highest 1,000 gage chinese quality) and I also had at least one "Gold End" made by Discwasher that I bought approximately 1980. (yes 1980)
I had some lengths of Mogami Neglex left over from my home installation so decided to not toss it out (shows how much thought I put into cable scraps).
Instead, I thought I'd make some new cables and try it out.
I bought some Neutrik RCA ends for my RCA runs. I also bought some Neutrik XLR ends for my XLR runs and made the cables.
There is no "OMG" difference.
In fact, once I find my (new) digital camera that got lost in my recent move....or (gack) buy another one, I'll probably put some Audioquest wires on ebay so I can get rid of them. These were not in my system and I acquired them in an estate purchase.
I figure someone will pay $25/50 for them :)
