I am not sure if I remember correctly, but I think I posted it in computer audio, becaus most of the stuff in the magazine was about computer audio as well.

I actually did some more tests, and since they A/B'ed different network cables and I am using WIFI I use to open the window while listening/streaming music now and it sounds so much fresher, but also a lot colder to me... but I could be mistaken.

Why is it bad? Sounds good to me!

So why was this thread moved to sound science?

Probably because the discussion quite fast turned into if there are audible differences between cables, or not.

Hey kr

How are you doing?

It's getting a little annoying seeing every thread that argues, that the earth is not flat, get slapped into the gulag.

Cables have been discussed to death numerous times. And since there don't seem to be clear definitive answer, discussions like this one probably belong in the Sound Science forum.
