Back in the Pre-Child years, I spent a bit of coin getting Monster Cable's then second or third-best cables for the Magneplanars, replacing their standard stuff. I installed them while Mrs. GeneJockey was out shopping. As she came up the steps of our flat, before she even got into the living room, she said, "What did you do to the stereo? It sounds better!"
