Will a high quality preamp really make a difference in sound?? Also speaker cable


Will a quality preamp make my system sound better?  And speaker cable...seems like everything I read people are split on this subject. My local hifi store brought up a good point; they said that the only thing between your amp and your speakers are the cable. Very good point and I'm inclined to believe it. Don't want to spend a fortune but don't want cheap cable either. Thoughts/ recommendations? Thank you in advance.

In the past I gave moderate praise to my preamps for the overall result of sound. More recently swapping a few preamps in/out with different Class A solid state and mono tube amplifiers both, I came to appreciate all over again what a nice preamp can really do for the enjoyment of the music.
