Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference?


I stream music via TIDAL and the only cable in my system that is not an "Audiophile" cable is the one going from my Gateway to my PC, it is a CAT6 cable. Question is, do "Audiophile" Ethernet cables make any difference/ improvement in sound quality?

Any and all feedback is most appreciated, especially if you noted improvements in your streaming audio SQ with a High-End Ethernet cable.

Thanks!

LOL. Simple questions can’t be answered.

I have the sighted subjectivist crowd DEMANDING scientifically rigorous testing. Oh this is a hoot.

If you can find a single post where I was maintaining that this was supposed to be AES worthy let me know. I'm simply out to test an individuals claim. Nothing less or more.

Also let me know of ANY AES papers that have accepted sighted evaluation.
Q You say AES doesn’t accept sighted tests. Do they even care one way or the Other? Are there AES Papers accepting or defining blind tests? Or anything related to blind tests? I’d be curious to know and surprised if there are, even though I know the dude from Harmon Kardon who’s high on blind tests is or was the head of AES. I have the impression and I could be wrong that AES is a little bit too conservative to believe in Cable differences or wire directionality or fancy fuses or controversial tweaks. So why would they support or accept blind tests? It doesn’t make sense.

Not so. I’ve simply pointed out that what you claim is a scientifically valid test is nothing of the sort.

You’ve claimed your protocol is valid, scientific. It isn’t. That’s the simple answer to your fuzzy simple question.

Personally, I don't have much use for double-blind listening tests ... although I have a mild general interest in them.

Just scroll up, silly - you’ve been doing your best here to defend the validity of your testing protocol. If you now recognize that your methods haven’t been scientific - good for you. We can move on.

If you wish to engage in semantic argument, I’m not interested.
