I always wonder , if all marketing, R&D, markups removed, how much actually (parts and labor) those expensive cables costs? Would be interesting to know. 
Triode wire or audio quest
I had latest Audioquest tornado power cables and eventually replaced them all with Triode wire labs high power digital and obsession cords that sounded more natural and refined than Audioquest. Also the TWL speaker cables are terrific. They have g... 
Power conditioner or outlet?
I think there are some power conditioners like Audioquest Niagara range or Shunyata Denali  that have the technology that makes power amps sound better plugging  them in by providing more current. But again all system/house/power dependent. 
Help with advice for high end speaker cables for my system!
The Triode Wire Labs speaker cables. Very natural sounding cables with great PRAT.  Bested many more expensive known brands in my system. Plus their owner is a great to deal with.  
Taralabs cables

Iar, thank for the info. The thing with hegel  that worries me is the build quality. I had their integrated and second from the H30 amplifier and they both had loud transformer bass and smell. The Hegel build is not in the same league as Luxman 50...
