Ethernet Cables

I retired from the IT field myself.....all the way from old school telecom using coax to 10/100 ethernet. I really don't care what I've learned or what should be or shouldn't be. I've always kept an open mind to the unexplainable. There have been the exact same types of arguments over the years regarding analog and digital IC's, speaker cable, power cables, DAC chips, USB cables, capacitors, resistors, wall outlets....you name it....and now ethernet cables. Errors or no errors, packets or no packets....I'm not ever going to tell someone something is impossible.

Dragon1952 - nobody says it is impossible. We're just trying to be intelligent about it and find the reason.

Believing any nonsense can bring such things like better highs upstairs or better bass in the basement. I've read serious gear review that found "soft" bass "obviously" because of soft rubber feet under the amp. Is it impossible - who knows, but reasoning was idiotic for sure.

Kijanki,
My 2 previous posts got posted in wrong order :-)

Joecasey, perhaps shielding on you AQ is better.

Possible. I'm open minded, adventurous and enjoy experimenting.

Great attitude - hobby should be fun.

On top of that, drawing conclusions and disputing one's results WITHOUT any details on the components and situation.
