Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck


I recently chronicled in a review here, my experience with a very expensive interconnect. The cables cost nearly $7000 and are well beyond my reach. The issue is, the Pursit Dominus sound fantastic. Nothing in my stereo has ever sounded so good. I have been wondering during and since the review how much I would have to spend to get the same level of improvement. I'm sure I could double the value of my amp or switch to monoblocks of my own amps and not obtain this level of improvement.
So, in your opinion what is the better value, assuming the relative value of your componants being about equal? Is it cheaper to buy, great cables or great electronics? Then, which would provide the biggest improvement?

No, this is not on Jung:

Ernie, the rabbit hole has proven an inspiration to your abrasive wit. Great post Ernie, though I somewhat beg to differ. What is passive aggression? Sort of like the significant other not talking to one for a week? Can't be though, ' cause ASA, though significant, sure is erudite and talking! My mantra for the week: My mind is a component and one with all components.....('tis true by the way, was in a lousy mood last night and the stereo just sounded like crap. Perhaps that was THE moment of truth...)-: )
Cheers,
By this time everyone probably know that I am a worst of the worst speller, and my English is also stink, sorry. Oh yeah, it's not the gear, it's the HUMAN THING! (logic/no logic (baggages), etc..., what a drag!)
What is passive agression? Hmm, the lion does not have to do anything, all he need to do is to show up? :-)

Let me do the logic thing:
Mind = a component and one with all components, complex cognitive.
All components = good and bad
Good and bad = diamond and cow dump

Mood = good mood and bad mood
Lousy mood = stereo just sounded like crap

Sorry Detloft, but you only got half of the mantra. LOL. This is because you did not approve for my use of "your quote" in the last thread. ;-)

Detlof, who is Ernie?

You guys just love the "neurotic thing"?, don't you? :-)

Here is the first half of the Ten bulls quote. Enjoy!

Too many steps have been taken returning to the root and the source.
Better to have been blind and deaf from the beginning!
Dwelling in one's true abode, unconcerned with that without --
The river flows tranquilly on and the flowers are red.

If you are sick, you go to the doctor. Easy isn't it? One just don't realize if he is sick. That is where all the trouble start. Wow I sound like Clueless ;-) You poor souls...

You guys call these craps "ZEN" LOL

It's Friday, cheers everyone...
