| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @acepilot71. Ok. I am discussing an Ethernet input in the back panel of the DAC, and the Ethernet cable from the wall to the DAC. Check out the cover of the April 2018 Stereophile. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @acepilot71 Does your DAC have an Ethernet input? I am not addressing TOS Link or USB. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @acepilot71 I do not own the integrated. I own the Black EX DAC and EX amp. I doubt there is much difference as far as the Ethernet input goes. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @acepilot71 Are you baiting me? The ethernet cable connects directly into the Bel Canto Black EX and directly into the PS Audio DirectStream through the Bridge II.These DACs use a Digital to Analog Converter to convert digital to analog…unbelievab... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? kosst_amojan This is John Stronzer's answer based on real science:Mark my research into the impact of the Ethernet cable for the last run into the audio system focused on radiated energy. Given that the Ethernet signal is packetized with packet ... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @david_ten I own and am comparing the Wireword Starlight Cat8 and the Cardas Ethernet cables. I also compared them against the Cat6 in the wall. (The installer cut and terminated two one meter cables from the reel.) | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? For those interested in real world results, read "Ethernet Cables - Yes I’m going there… I was a skeptic and I was wrong" on the PS Audio Forum. https://forum.psaudio.com/t/ethernet-cables-yes-im-going-there-i-was-a-skeptic-and-i-was-wrong/4393/1... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? I took my advice from the engineer who designed and manufactures the Bel Canto Black EX DAC. He made the suggestion that I should try a high-quality Ethernet cable, I was skeptical, I tried it and it increased the sound quality. He was right. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? In the field of psychology, the Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias wherein people of low ability have illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their cognitive ability as greater than it is. The cognitive bias of illusory superiority deriv... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? Do you own a streaming DAC? | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? No answer? How about another simple question: have you tested your premise that a high-quality Ethernet cable makes no difference on a high-end streaming DAC? | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @kosst_amojan I asked you a simple question: how many streaming DACs have you designed, manufactured and sold? Dunning-Kruger effect. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? I am hearing that they do not want to try it because, they are so well qualified, they know it will not make a difference. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? All I am suggesting is that you try it in your own home in your own system. If you have not tried it, keep your uninformed opinions to yourself. I, for example, would be reluctant to express an opinion on a car I have not driven. I would, however... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @grm. Good test. You may want to try a Cardas, AudioQuest or Wireworld Ethernet cable. They run around $200. If the one you buy fails the test, sell it here on Audiogon. |
