Do good microphone/speaker cables reduce feedback?

I'm the singer in a band, and i recently bought a new p.a. system. It is average quality, and it does sound really good, until i start turning it up more than half-way. After i do it more than half-way, the feedback kicks in, so i have to turn it down. My members say i should buy better quality cables. I've already read on turining down the master volume and all that stuff, but it doesnt seem to work.
Also, the microphone isnt really that great, so could that be the problem?

Get a better microphone. A better microphone will be more directional, such that it will only pick up your voice and not the amplified voice from the amplifier, which causes the feedback. The cables won't have much to do with how much feedback you get. But, since you're getting a new mic, why not get new cables?
