Lee,
I am sorry, you are correct, given time, money, desire, and skill all the things you discuss above can be attained.
I was speaking about my experience not saying that anyone elses is incorrect. I try to make reasonable choices based on available knowledge and resources.
Let me explain by expanding on your questions.

J " Even if you could show benefit that was controllable the difference would still fall below the noise (other affect) threshold for most applications." Lee " What ?!?!?!? We are talking about sonic differences in the AUDIBLE band here by definition..."What I mean is that The "audible" difference would not be detectable in many environments. I would Imagine based on the casual reading of other postings in the forum that many folks here do not build theaters from foundations. they deal with where they are, in apartments, with old houses with demands on their time beyond the design of the theater, as a result there are environmental factors which would make that "audible" difference disappear. like the 88' article above, not every one gets to sit in the sweet spot. Maybe because of room constraints the speakers can only be 12 feet apart and against the wall. Maybe because your wife loves marble you have a loverly marble floor in the room. all of these things would change the listening environment more than switching wires to the speakers.
You are obviously a man with skills far beyond mine, I am not here to tell you, you are wrong, I could not and would not want to if I could. I am here to learn and listen to folks like you so that I can eek out that little extra from my set up. Pardon my flip nature, I am also here to have fun.
by way of that here are some of the questions I asked myself.
Which of the following would you do before tripling your cable cost?
Would you buy a larger TV
Would you buy curtains for the room?
Would you buy separates?
Would you buy a better DVD Player?
Would you buy a bigger sub?
Would you buy better speakers?
Would you pay for camp for the kiddies?
Would you replace the noisy dishwasher?
Would you paint?
Would you buy more DVD's and CD's
Would you spend the weekend building or are you hiring a contractor?
I am getting carried away now.
Thank you for your patience.
J
