HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ?

Just asking the question. If you don’t  believe in cables. Good for you. But if you do have you ever made a cable change that opened up your system to new heights. Just interested if you have or haven’t. If you don’t believe in cables this isn’t a thread for you. What are your thoughts ?

I can't say that I have, but then again, I don't buy super-expensive cables, either.

In my experience, the improvements, if any, were very subtle at best. But noticeable on my test tracks. Or I at least thought I heard a difference. But since I don't recall doing a blind A/B with previous cables I'm not 100% sure it wasn't me just "wanting" to hear a difference and thinking I did.

No, except speaker cables (Audience FrontRow on both systems). 

I found some gear are immune to RCA and XLR magic. 

On my headphone gear the cables made a massive difference. However, there was actual math behind the headphone cables from RAAL-Requisite.
