What about a fiber conversion kit?

Audio Grade Ethernet Cable
I've been thinking about getting a DH Labs ethernet cable. My thought is to get my crappy router as close to my Bryston BDP 3 as possible, so that the cable is only 0.5 meters. I do have a TeraDak LPS connected to the router. Is this a waste of time and money? I know the cable is just a couple hundred dollars but I don't want to spend that much just to realize again that my local files will always be preferable.

I too bought into using Cat 8 cable and found it made no noticeable difference with anything. I used to watch OCD Mikey and Jay’s Audio Lab and both of the said to make your eithernet cable the last thing you replace. Mikey never really gave a good reason, but Jay said that the eithernet cable made the least amount of difference in sound quality of anything in his system. All the best. |
True: Also CAT 8 needs a drain (un-shielded at the EQ end) to be of any benefit.
I use Neotech CAT6 and USB in my system. Better than Amazon junk and not the high price of so called AP RJ45 and USB cables.
