Can anyone weigh in here on whether or not there is any validity to the positive gains reported by others regarding various types of patch cables…Yes.
RE: Ethernet Cable /Patch Cable ...Any Difference?
I’m fairly certain that this topic has been brought up previously. I did peruse the Cables section to no avail. I think this is a more fitting topic however, for the PC Audio section.
I have been reading via other forums recently about the claims that certain CAT6 cable actually “sounds” better than some CAT5 cables. I have to admit that I am a bit skeptical. I am, however, open to try upgrading to different patch cables.
Can anyone weigh in here on whether or not there is any validity to the positive gains reported by others regarding various types of patch cables…
Note (for those of you how read all the way to the end of this post): Answers such as, “here we go again,” “now you’ve opened a can of worms,” this subject has been beaten to death,” “It’s all subjective,” etc. serve no purpose to my post. If you don’t have a direct educated answer, please don’t reply. That way we can make this a short, simple and civil thread.
Thanks.
