"Ethernet cables are networking devices. So when you use a good one or a bad one it should make you network more or less robust. "

Is this a joke? What is a good or bad cable? A defective cable will not work... Where all his other cables defective? Wrapped around florescent fixtures?

The total article was fictitious, and just written to steer people to the AQ cables. You can try to make excuses, and look for other possibilities, but anyone with knowledge of networking and audio will understand this.

I have dealt with defective cables before. A pseudo-CAT7 with shield detached in some cases will be somewhat worse than a CAT6 or even a CAT5e.

You were making some sort of weird claim about USB and trying to link it to the review.

If you have copped out and use a local hard drive and USB to your DAC from your computer, then no matter what anyone says about Ethernet to you, won't matter much.

I have been working with networks at home for more than 15 years - wired and wireless (I have fitted out the last 3 houses I own with wired ethernet). I didn't see anything in the article except "problem solved with these cables" with his video and audio dropouts.

I am pretty sure he's not a shill.

But I don't understand your outrage. Seriously. The only fault with his article was it was a bit on the long side.

  ""You were making some sort of weird claim about USB and trying to link it to the review.""
  What are actually talking about??? Do you understand that Ethernet connects to the streaming computer and the USB connects to the DAC?
  ""If you have copped out and use a local hard drive and USB to your DAC from your computer, then no matter what anyone says about Ethernet to you, won't matter much.""
  
  If who is using a local hard drive? Again what are you attempting to say?
  ""I have been working with networks at home for more than 15 years - wired and wireless (I have fitted out the last 3 houses I own with wired ethernet). I didn't see anything in the article except "problem solved with these cables" with his video and audio dropouts."
  Multiply the years X 2 and the amount by several hundred...
  ""I am pretty sure he's not a shill."" LOL sorry...
  ""But I don't understand your outrage. Seriously. The only fault with his article was it was a bit on the long side.""
  Nice of you to try and repair his image... Hmmm... Interesting...
  But it just get worse... Let's see how this sounds...
  I am an IT professional formally with Cisco systems. I claim to be an IT guru... I am a serious audiophile with a commercial website. I own well over TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS in Audio equipment, but I was living daily with a broken network plagued with glitches and dropouts... until... I was lucky enough to just happen to be sent these magical AQ cables... PRAISE THE LORD MY NETWORK HAS BEEN HEALED...

    I see you also graduated from the Andrew Carnegie course. Let me know how well that works for you.
    
    (In all seriousness, grow up and get some perspective on this things. It's a freaking cable, not some sort of personal validation through trashing others group fest)
