Yes, cables and the like are way overblown.
If you live in an area that is not industrialized or has a smaller person per square mile index there is a good chance you'll need nothing in the way of power conditioners and similar products either. You'll have a decent sine wave (stable hertz) and good non-fluctuating voltage.
The speakers are the most important part of a system with the front end coming in a close second.
Cables and power cords are the very last on the list.
A dedicated power source for your equipment is more important than the cables you use or any line conditioner. at least imho.
