272 + Cardas Clear Network ethernet cable (1.5 m)

I found this also...https://positive-feedback.com/reviews/hardware-reviews/cardas-audio-clear-ethernet-network-cable-cat-7/

hope it helps when choosing the right cable 

Folk here only like blue jeans 

I use a Chord Aray, which makes a big difference also, if the Cardas works for you thats all that matters, but i find always best to remove the cable after a week, listen and compare, sometimes you realize the initially brightness glare gets you, as the cable burns in and settles and the brightness disappears the difference has gone.

Could that be because they are certified to be what they say in the packet ? It’s only Belden cable, cut to length and terminated by Blue Jeans after all.

Note really as many comment they use throw away leads with no mention of certs.

I think you’ll find it’s more the expensive boutique cables that aren’t certified. Most of them aren’t even called Ethernet cables and have to be described as streaming cables instead.

CHRISSU agree - i was more referring to "i found this and use it" cables.

Thanks. lets see where it stands in one week.

Was this also the same with the Chord Aray? 

Well at 340 dollars you only got a little bit rogered rather then well rogered.

Huge will certainly follow, as Simon.....the circular forum....   But without offense to them of course.

I think someone is excited with all the rogering, maybe the viagra.

Just enough to read” ethernet fancy cables” and the excitement arises.   Or it’s like a bug....

200$ guys, I have a discount, and I have one week to decide if I keep it...

Was listening again yesterday, several Hires recordings,  clear difference, seems like if I have upgraded my system, everything is lifted up, with more depth, space and details, I will keep the cable for sure. 

TESLIK - good to hear, but i would suggest once you think it is reasonably state and you are familiar, swap back to your prior cable, listen and then swap back. I do find the initial sparkle can be alluring.

Note i am currently looking into the Synergy Research Graphene based Ethernet, but to be honest for sometime been happy with my Chord Indigo (after doing many back and forth to bog standard cables)

Finally, bought it for 120$, I think its a good deal - there will be no regrets. 

Not a bad price then ????

A friend of mine gave a birthday discount  ) 

Lol a good friend ????

Don't forget to remove it at somepoint and compare, with the ethernet you can just go into standby and then swap, this cuts down the variables, as I find and other power cycling the Uniti range does result in a change.

Before I leave tomorrow morning, as I will not get back to Moscow, where my system is, before December for sure,  just wanted to say that system sounds  still amazing, try this cable if you can, you will not regret. I was listening to some records of Zero7 today, wow, wow, wow
