Affordable cables

We all know and can't dispute that SR and other uber expensive cables can do magic with your systems however most of us aspiring audiophiles simply can't afford them. So I would like to hear from some of our colleagues who worked their way up the cable chain what if any cables priced at $100.00 or less made or make the most difference to a system. Interconnects specifically.  Thanks

Why do people post such obviously erroneous hyperbole?

In the overall scheme of things people would generally be much better off if they paid more attention to system engineering aspects of cables. Respect the directionality of wire. Elevate or suspend all cables and power cords. Clean and treat all electrical connections. If your cables aren’t cryo’d at the factory send them off to the cryo lab ASAP. If you are using vibration isolation make sure cables and power cords don’t pull on the set up as that will mess up the isolation effectiveness.
