ETHERNET CABLES


When using ethernet for hooking up streaming devices and dacs, what cat level of  ethernet cable should be used. Is there any sonic improvement by going to a  higher dollar cat 7 or 8 cable?

@nonoise you are absolutely right. The industry had to solve for all sort of things, including noise, but that is the point; It is solved it. It is done, no longer an issue. Ethernet today is incredibly robust and error free in commercial environments, and well beyond that in residential environments. That is my whole point.

@audphile1  thanks for proving my point; when presented with how things actually work, ignore, deflect, personal attacks! 

@audphile1  lol, that’s your argument? When I literally have been telling you that your cable (tree) makes no difference at all in whole transmission chain (forest) from your platform of choice. 
 

yeah, facts and even basic understanding isn’t the anti-ASR crowd’s forte. 
 

if you actually want to learn how Ethernet works, let me know.
