What cable caused you to become a cable "junkie" ?

I admit that I'm a cable junkie. It started for me back in 1979 when I changed out some Monster Cable zip-type speaker cables for the then new MIT MH-750 Music Hose. Ever since then, I have always been obsessed with cables( interconnects,speaker cables, and power cords)I keep telling myself that my system is fine, but ultimately I yearn to try out a new power cord to see if I can get that last bit of resolution. Any other cable nuts like me, or do I have a unique problem that a real audiophile doesn't have.

A friend who had been in the HiFi business owed me some money, so I took the lamp cord of of my Harmon Kardon receiver and replaced it with Kimber Kable (the brown and black braid). Since then I have used Monster, Cardas, Kimber, Audioquest, and Purist Audio Design ICs. I have also used Audioquest, Monster, Krell, and Purist Audio Design speaker cables.

My PCs are all DIY since they are so much better than the ones I bought.

I think the 'bug' comes from being able to upgrade the sound of the system with a minimal investment. Every other piece in a system costs a lot more to upgrade.

I'm thinking about upgrading again!?!
