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.

Yes but mine is galvanically isolated to keep the noise floor low. devil

I have the feeling you are still on dial-up and listen to the old hand crank Victrola. wink

Sorry, did not mean to stir things up.  Just was musing about the divergence between cost and benefit at the outer ends of our hobby.  I guess what I should be pondering is whether the above  discussed upgrades could bring my streaming beyond the CD / CD transport sound.
