Do you have equipment there to measure the output of each pair of cables? And are you able to pick the difference blind?
To answer your question, I actually did. With a battery impedance tester that goes down to 4 decimal places under 200 mOhm.
The cheap (and lousy) cable measured 0.335 Ohm on average with 4 readings, one each for positive and negative or each cable.
The "proper" cable measured in at 0.013 Ohm, with the same 4 readings. That's almost 26x the impedance of the properly made RCA cables for the lousy cables !
Edit and Addendum:
I forgot to deduct the values of the measurement probe, which would have been 0.01 Ohm.
That would have made it 0.325 Ohms and 0.003 Ohms. Makes the ratio even greater at 100 times.
