interconnect vs speaker cable

Everything being equal, and I use that term loosely, of course; which one, interconnect or cable, gives you the most sound for the dollar? How about this way? Again, things being equal, which would you upgrade first, or better yet, if you could only upgrade one, due to $ (and you couldn't make the other upgrade for a long while), which would it be? I know, I know, there are loads of other factors, but just let's pretend there aren't any, or, again, everything's equal. There's that ubiquitous "equal" again. Thanks in advance.

Start with the interconnect. The signal path starts there.
Buy the most expensive cable you can afford, after a lengthy trial period of sampleing different brands and levels of those brands. I love Cardas, but not all their cables deliver the same benefits. Other considerations, assuming your tastes are as mine and that is I like a very analytical and detailed sound. I am not a "warm/mushy" listener. That said, try Harmonic Technology, Analysis Plus, come to mind as alternatives for a neutral non-colored sound.
