    Top comment

    "I was skeptical at first because I had a Cat 8 cable already between my router and modem. So, I decided to go with this cable from Audioquest Forest and it is extremely reliable. ...I did not realize that a regular ethernet cable was a bottleneck in my system. Highly recommended this one or a higher grade one."

    Product Description

    AudioQuest Forest RJ/E prepared Cat 7 Ethernet cables use Solid 0.5% Silver conductors, which eliminate strand interaction, one of the biggest sources of distortion in cables, for clearer, more dynamic and involving sound. Superior conductor metals minimize distortion thanks to having fewer grain boundaries and fewer impurities (such as oxides) at those boundaries. Solid High-Density Polyethylene insulation helps maintain critical signal-pair geometry. Of course, all AudioQuest Ethernet cables are controlled for RF-noise directionality, efficiently dissipating noise away from the system's vulnerable audio circuitry; arrows indicate the direction (from source to destination) for the best audio performance.

Disappointed that BB never has short patch cables in stock though....To be fair, I bought this cable not knowing if it was long enough.
