Rockford Gamma or Stealth RCA Patch Cable?

I gotta redo my whole setup since, someone recently stole my old setup. Since this unfortunate incident had to happen I figured I'd upgrade all my stolen equipment with better equipment.

I need about 20ft. of Patch cable. about 20ft. of Rockford Gamma cable is about double the price of 20ft. of Rockford Stealth at Crutchfield. am I going to really notice a big difference in using the Gamma Patch cable instead of the Stealth cable? I'm not trying to spend a fortune here, so I'm wondering if anyone has any opionons.

Please note that I will be using the Rockford Gama Speaker cable.

if you install it right, you could use radio shack patch cable and not notice a difference

all the stuff is online at www.crutchfield.com . My car was broken into and all me stereo equipment stolen, so I figured I'd use the insurance money + some of my own and upgrade to some more powerful stuff than what I originally had before the theft.

Installing it is easy. I'm just gonna relocate the amp to the trunk this time instead of under the passenger seat. I was just wondering if 20ft. Gamma cables ($60 + extension adapters) were worth it over the 20ft. Stealth RCA cables ($30). I know installation is about 80-90% of what makes up a good system, so that is why I had asked.

I'll probably go with the Stealth cable, just because I don't see myself spending $60 on a set of RCA cables. Hell, I used to have Radioshack RCA cables and 10 year old speaker wire hooked up to my old amp, before everything was stolen.
