This interesting comparison test of XLR line cables made by a user in the Audio Science Review forum shows that there are measurable differences between short (1 meter) line cables, even balanced ones that should be immune from any kind of problem. To be fair it also shows that the one that differs the most from the others is not assembled correctly. But it is always interesting to get into the small details and see that there are still differences even in the most theoretically uniform category of parts. Audiophilia is mostly about the small details.
As a side note, if shopping for XLR line cables from the EU, you should seriously consider the Cordial CCM 1, which performs perfectly, seems well made and sturdy, and doesn't cost much. I would consider it myself even though I already have (presumably) good Gotham and Mogami XLR line cables.
