Ethernet cables

Are they controlled for directionality? 😳

No Geoff. At least not controlled at the factory. Are you trying to control them ?

I have been using Supra Cat8 for months basing on good reviews. I recently switc back to the basic cables and found the sound much fuller and warmer. The bass, while not as deep it was punchier. For the Supra Cat8 users, do you guys have the same experience?

Meicord Opal,

incredible performance for the money

You know how when you had analogue TV the picture used to get better or worse depending on your aerial, cables, interference, noise, etc? But your digital TV either has a perfect picture or no picture at all?

Same with audio over Ethernet compared to analogue. It’s the way Ethernet works. If there is audio at the other end at all, it is a perfect reconstruction of the signal. Any noise is not part of the signal and is ignored.
All Ethernet cables “sound” the same if they pass a signal at all.
