Are cable recommendations worth anything?


I am a Denafrips dac owner. I use the Denafrips Facebook site for the same reasons I use this site.

Discourse, basic information and hopefully some enlightenment.
Recently one of the contributors asked the default question of "Can you recommend RCA cable brands that match well with Denafrips from dac to amplifier?"

Am I the only person that is confused when someone asks an open-ended question like this about cables?The sheer variety of "highly recommended" cables, lends me to believe that the cables are much less important to the sound than the component itself. Recommendations ran the gamut from the Tellurium Q Black Diamond cables at $1,100 CDN per metre, to the Blue Jeans cables at about $50 CDN per metre.

How does that make sense and how can this possibly help the poor slob that asked the question?

Hey @audio2design... or @dannad, or @atdavid, or whatever... it did not take you long after they banned your most recent moniker (Dannad) to resurface again here. Why on earth keep insisting over and over and over coming back here to spread your venom and hatred to everything audio and audiophiles?? This is way beyond my understanding and imagination. Get a life.
And yet, here you are: in a thread about cables. If you have concluded (in whatever way, not my business) cables are worthless, why do you worry about them? Why do you talk about cables? 
Listen with what? 😂😂. How can possibly a good power cord make their $50 China DAC sound like a SOTA DAC?
