No. There are companies who sell cables at VERY inflated prices, but 
that rarely correlates with quality. For example, most vendors of 
esoteric cables one who does the most advertising, sells glorified zip 
cord as "speaker cable."  Zip cord is well known to CAUSE RF 
interference to audio systems.

Audio cables are very easy to make. The Power Point slides on my website 
list part numbers for good quality audio connectors and a good vendor to 
buy them from. RG58 and miniature coax (like RG174) make excellent audio 
cable.
