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!

I for one say thet yes they do make a difference, I have just replaced a 30 foot ethernet cable with one made with better materials and rfi and other screens. and I have to say I am very pleased with the results, the treble especially is less pronounced and altogether much more believable. Yes I do know some of you will say i am imagining it but what I say is this the person who changes a cheap fairly long cable and replaces it with a very wll made shielded cable and dosn't hear a differense is needing their ears cleaned out

Irony... Snake oilers demanding "scientific" listening evaluations. I hate to break it to you, but nothing I’ve seen here remotely resembles what would pass as a scientific evaluation.

>>>>Let me break it to you, Mr. Kownitall. There is no such thing as a scientifically valid listening test. Full stop. If you think there is you’re simply mistaken or misinformed, whatever. We’ve been over all of this before so I’ll leave it to the student to search the archives. I did testing, you know, professionally. Not in my mother’s basement. So you can stop putting on airs.

Again if someone says they can jump up 10’ from a stand it’s TRIVIAL to test this claim. This doesn’t need a science lab with interns, tons of diagnostic equipment and dissertation.

>>>>Uh, but nobody’s making that claim. No one is claiming he can fly or that UFOs are real, either. That’s what we call a Strawman Argument. People can think up all kinds of absurd cases that have no relevance to the actual issue at hand.

Costco, you haven’t been following. If he heard it it doesn’t matter if the test was “scientifically valid” or not. And it does not matter if there were mistakes somewhere in his system or if the system was not the ultimate in resolution or if he had issues with hearing or if the weather wasn’t the best. He had positive results *in spite* of all that. Hel-loo!

Positive results are much more important and interesting than negative results, which don’t mean anything taken as a single test, don’t you think? Nothing succeeds like success. And failure is no success at all. I suggest you go back to one of my posts where I explain everything and memorize it.
