NO, that is just a big bogus to get your money out of your pocket......

Is it a little flimsy one? Go for on that has an obvious amount of insulation and is pretty thick. I've found every good component helps a little. Put them all together and you have a significant improvement.

You have to remember you are talking about ~5Mhz bandwidth, not microwaves. While I wouldn't buy a $4.50 cable, $20 would be a reasonable amount for a name brand like Belkin for a cable about ~6 feet long with well constructed connectors and decent quality cable. Don't buy into 'mega cable' hype. It's just a piece of wire.
