Cables ... what's up with them?

Can't quite come to terms with spending significant amounts on cables / interconnects. Looking for moderately priced IC's, I came across Phantom Cables (at infinitecables.com; $100 for 3 ICs). Figured had to sound better than the stuff that came with the cable box and DVR I bought. A marked downgrade in audio enjoyment transpired. Which is true?

Better cables revealed weaknesses elsewhere in the system?
Have to spend WAY more to get real improvement?
I have gritty tastes

Right now I'm sold on the crap that came with the cable box

I think you were able to prove to yourself that cables do effect the sound. In your case for the worse, but this should be taken as a signal to you that cables can change your sound.

I do not believe you need to spend huge amounts to get a better sound. Read the threads here, there are many good companies that provide good results for a small investment.
