Chord Ethernet Cables

Heh, you guize!

What differences can I expect to hear?
The effects on sound quality that Ethernet cables produce are very similar to those experienced with analogue and digital interconnects. Timing and coherence are the two really easy differences to hear, but like other interconnects it’s simple to spot the differences in levels of detail, tonal quality and dynamic performance.
The event that convinced us to that we needed to make the Indigo and Sarum Tuned ARAY Ethernet cables was listening to a live version of Dave Brubeck’s “Take Five” from the album “We’re All Together for the First Time”. Sixteen minutes of brilliant musicianship. Put the Indigo Tuned ARAY Ethernet cable onto the streamer and this track comes to life, the skill and the level of understanding between the musicians makes for an irresistible way to spend sixteen minutes. Put the Sarum Tuned ARAY Ethernet cable on and you’re there in the audience

In the audience. You're buying an expierience here and that doesn't come cheap.

Pluuuuse:

Are Ethernet cables directional?
Yes. The construction of Tuned ARAY cables is such that although they’ll carry a signal if connected in the wrong direction, sound quality will be badly affected. But every other Ethernet cable we tested and listened to also worked better in one direction than the other. The difference to sound quality the direction made varied from cable to cable. In the case of the Chord C-stream Ethernet cable the difference was significant enough for us to mark one of the plugs with a small black dot. This is the source end of the cable. So if the cable is being used to connect the streamer, the plug without the dot should be connected to the streamer. The difference that direction makes to sound quality is again similar to the effects experienced with both analogue and digital interconnects. Timing, rhythm and coherence are all affected.

I gotta tell the techies they have done it all wrong. My Gato Barbieri is a disaster...

Reminds me of the idiot that tried selling me a 200 bucks plus 1m HDMI cable for 132.2323% better sound quality when I bought my surround sound.

Wonder if some fools actually falls for this?

Going to see if I can get one for my PC to give it cleaner power from the mains and hopefully OC'd this poor batch CPU to 5-5.2GHZ.
