Amir, the RCA vs. balanced can be a huge difference, depending on the application, and the longer the runs, the greater the difference. But I was talking about the materials and construction of available connectors, which are primarily made the way they are not for conductivity or sound sound but to facilitate manufacturing and marketing. Look at a metals conductivity chart, and  - if you can even find out about it -  compare the metals used to make (and "plate") 99% of available connectors. Lots of room for improvement here, and even the most expensive cables  typically use crappy connectors.  I suppose its like everything else in hi-fi, there just isn't enough money in it to justify significant, thoroughgoing R&D.
