$8,000 for a cable? Not too bad - the Kimber Select Black Pearl gets up to about $18,000 or so for a long speaker cable.
It may be a myth, but I'm sure I read somewhere about a guy who chiselled little channels into his concrete floor, running from his amp to his speakers, filled them with mercury, and used those as speaker "cables".
