MasterWarzombie Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 @R1200CL I followed your previous advice. Two days ago I received a Belden 1303E CAT6A Ethernet cable (JSSG360) to put it between my etherregen output B and my streamer I also received to connect between my roon nucleus and my Keces P8 a Gotham GAC-4/1 11301 UltraPro Star Quad DC (JSSG360) cable. I hesitated with the Neotech UPOCC 7N Copper 16AWG DC (JSSG360). Your valuable opinion on the last two cables? Link to comment

MasterWarzombie Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I read that @Superdaddo not advise to put an ethernet filter between the output B of the etherregen and the audio streamer. After several tries and tests, I had the opposite effect. My sound is definitely better on my test playlist with my SOtM ISO CAT 6 filter. configuration. I don't explain why !

Which cable are you using? thank you :) Laurent The build quality is as good as it gets. I needed a custom DC cable with a USB end, and Ghent delivered a flawless product. Nothing fancy; just very clean, fitted with reliable components and a fat Canare cord. Most times, I use the enclosed DC cables since it's all hidden at the back of my rack. I suppose that if cosmetics were a priority, I'd get my cables custom made with Ghent. His certainly look better than any generic OEM cables. Sound wise, other than anecdotal testimonies, there's nothing to suggest that high-end that DC cables can make a difference, MasterWarzombie 1 Stereo [Genelec 1032C x 2 + 7360 x 2] <== [MC3+USB x 3 <-- REF10 SE120] <== [AERIS G2] <== [EtherRegen x 3] Chain switchable to [Genelec 8331 x 2 + 7350] Surround [Genelec 1032C x 3 + 8431 x 2 + 7360 x 2] <== [MiniDSP U-DIO8] <== [Mac Mini] Link to comment

Perhaps one year ago, I saw a good used deal on AS for a DC cable from Sonore (apologies Alex). I did the upgrade from a Ghent (don’t remember the model) and I felt a difference. By curiosity, I asked the former owner if he too had made an upgrade. He confirmed that he was using an audio sensibility silver cable and was very satisfied with the differences felt. So I decided to take the risk and I am now a happy owner of 2 of those cables and considering a 3rd one.

Well, you can start with this post: And continue with this search. https://audiophilestyle.com/search/?&q=Quad&author=JohnSwenson&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy You can also study the theory behind JSSG360 (or just JSSG). Basically it’s a Faraday Cage on a cable. Makes a lot of sense to me. Uptone has some unique DC cables as they can use lower AWG, since Alex has access to special version og Oyade DC plugs.

They do make a difference. Try listening to one against the other. Quoted for "truth". In the beginning of my PC-audio craziness when I "only" had JCAT USB Card on a basic PC, later on powered with UpTone LPS-1.2. As astoundingly substantial effect LPS-1.2 had on sound quality powering the JCAT USB card I was almost as astoundingly surprised what Canare 4S8 did when replacing it with stock LPS-1.2 cable. Recently I introduced Audio Sensibility Signature Silver DC cables replacing Farad Level 2 cable (from Farad3 to Singxer SU-1 sCLK-EX modified) and the one powering EtherRegen also, which was Ghent Neotech UPOCC cable. As layman, I have no idea why DC cable would make difference but on every DC cable "upgrade" I have done as another anecdotal evidence it just stuns me of the impact when the cable has been properly "burnt-in". Yes, that would be another "ridiculous anecdotal statement", but if trying some new cable on a system, please give it time few days before critical listening. Usually one could add YMMV on such posts but then again, if one were to add, say JCAT USB Card on his/her PC and power with LPS-1.2, and not hearing any difference on DC cables I would wonder why one is here on the forum in the first place, respectfully. I find the difference so obvious on them. And this is coming from a guy that had enjoyed LPS-1.2 with its stock DC cable intially and found it amazing, but it just keeps getting better... 😈 PYP, Pokey77, MartinT and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment
