If you could hear a difference, then you should be signing up for RC's $10,000 amp challenge and prepare to collect. 
It would be a little more asthetically pleasing, tho.
I only meant looks and installation-wise, I doubt I could tell the difference between any of the different cables

Are those even shielded?
If not, one could make their own with Cat5 patch cable...and the twists on Cat5 are a lot tighter than what that picture shows.

They don't look shielded, with the blue and silver wires twisted around each other like that....

Umm... you won't really have to worry too much about shielding and whatnot. To be honest, you won't be able to tell the difference in sound with Radio Shack RCA's and expensive super twisted, silver lined, gold plated, ultra-mega-alpha-beta-gamma wave resistant RCA's. Just go with what you want to spend, and if you want it to look Golden.. or plain.

It sounds like all other copper.  Seriously, you can make some nice cheap patch cable with cat5.

You can definitely tell the difference between cheap RCAs and the more expensive ones. I've tested it myself. One time I compared some RCA brand RCAs that I got at wal-mart to some RF white wolf RCAs on my house sub. The difference was incredible. It felt like the sub put out like 50% more power. I've also done some other similar comparisons before and I can always tell the difference between the cheap ones and the expensive ones.
