I’ve seen some people claim that the sound quality of streaming is affected by the quality of their ethernet cables. I don’t do streaming, so I’ll have to take their word for it. I was wondering if downloading is a different situation since the timing of bits presumably doesn’t matter. I download a…

Donald, my cheap ethernet flat cable sounded flat again and wasn’t anything special. :rofl: I thought it should be at least a Cat 8 for the TV so as not to have a bad one on the switch and better than the accessory pack. When I tried the ribbon cable on my streamer chain after a long period of use, …

I can use the flat cable for TV then. :laughing: Well, too bad it seems I still need another expensive cable. Luca is testing his CAD and will let us know how good it is. Then, there is always Shunyata Omega that I know is great. :worried:

Donald then you already have a goal for the next year. You promised your wife and here in the forum. :face_with_hand_over_mouth::wink: Don’t you have another Aliexpress silver Lan cable? Or did it sound like a pancake to you? Perhaps the flat ribbon Lan is still developing. Mine took time too. I als…

I still have it in my treasure box. Ever since vmax trashed it, it does not sound good in my system anymore. :laughing: I should try it again, I bet it sounds better than the $10 one.

Hopefully it’s like this :see_no_evil: 10 dollar experiment is fun and doesn’t get anyone in trouble. You might try a braided shield with a drain wire on your Ethernet cable.

My $8 Amazon CSL ribbon cable went from being a cheap connection to a real surprise. It has a clean sound with sharp focus. As if someone had cleaned the dirty windows and you could see more clearly. A Lan cable can also be turned in the direction. The J-cat is the only cable I have printed with a …

The following comment might be of interest for Donald and other members out there, I’ve just received it from CAD There is a lot of noise created in ethernet networks. It is hard to do “too much” noise reduction. Our own network server uses an Ethernet connection for operation, even though the mu…

I use these filters between the modem and before the switch. [image] Netzwerkisolator EN-1005+ • Standalone • EMO Systems GmbH Medizinischer Netzwerkisolator EMOSAFE EN-1005+ für 1000 Mbit/s für die sichere galvanische Trennung

No, two of the EN 1005+. Phonosophie sells the same for audio at three times the price.

I like my Pink Faun and have read many positive reviews about GigaFOIL v4 and Muon as well (if I remember correctly our Al owns one). I thought PhoenixNET was enough (and I’m really happy with it) but I’ll experiment with the CAD toys to find out any further improvements. I will also try with/with…
