Have audio cables really improved in last 20 years?


I feel audio components have improved in last 20 years. Better caps, resistors and so on but is there a really a jump in wire production or technology?  I need to buy some more wire. Is it really beneficial to buy new current wire or will older 10 to 20 year old used high end wire be almost as good. I still have my old Acoustic Zen silver ref 2, JPS Superconductor, XLO signature and others and think they sound very good.

Looks like everybody has different views, I have a couple old Tara Labs The One power cord from long ago just looked it up there still making it. I have JPS Superconductor plus speaker cables and Superconductor 3 speaker cables and interconnects there is a nice difference the JPS 3’s are over 10 rears old, they are now on 4’s. So 4’s must be better right. I have some old Verastarr power cords and some much more current and there is a difference. Have these company’s finally reached a ceiling since some here think there has not much improvement over the years. I can’t help but think one day there is a point there is only so much you can do with wire.
