Ethernet connection for best sound quality


As far as I'm aware of for streaming audio with tidal hi fi plus ethernet. I need; besides modem and router.

1) A Streamer

2) A ethernet card specifically for audio jcat or matrix if I use my computer

3) Shielded ethernet cat 5 or better cable

So from wall to modem to router to streamer to dac, correct?

“garbage article” maybe only  to you. Fine …  carry on… I could not care less what you pontificate as “garbage”.

We did our own hands- on direct bakeoff of crummy non-shielded Ethernet cables against quality-build and properly shielded Ethernet cables .in my $50,000 system.

Guess what!  …. the audio improvements in shielded cables were clear and unambiguous that exactly mirrored the article conclusions .

@akg_ca but you are utterly unqualified to do

any test like that, so it is garbage. It would like saying I did randomized control trial of the weight loss drug, sure, I did it, but it doesn’t mean anything because I am not qualified to conduct such a trial.

@antigrunge2 thank you for stopping, no one needs to read fictional “white papers” that have been debunked.
