is interconnect more important than speaker cable

Hi,

I have often heard from audiophiles and dealers that you spend more money on your interconnects than your speaker cables because they are more important for your system.

Does anyone venture to guess why people say that?

I still have my Nordost Red Dawn Speaker cables but have my final pieces for the rest of my system so its time for me to possibly upgrade it but not sure if worthwhile. I am very happy with system and would prefer of course to avoid upgrading the speaker cable to Nordost Valhalla to match my xlr interconnect.

Present system

Wilson Watt Puppy 7
Rowland 302 amp
Emmlabs DCC2 (dac/preamp) kimber kable power supply
Emmlabs CDSD (transport.....using emmlabs optic cable to connect to dcc2)...kimber kable power supply
Nordost Valhalla to connect amp to preamp
Nordost Red Dawn Speaker Cables

Don't flip out...your cables are fine.

Dear God...don't let my new friend Karamapolice be as stupid as these people want him to be.
