Audio Grade Ethernet Cable


I've been thinking about getting a DH Labs ethernet cable. My thought is to get my crappy router as close to my Bryston BDP 3 as possible, so that the cable is only 0.5 meters. I do have a TeraDak LPS connected to the router. Is this a waste of time and money? I know the cable is just a couple hundred dollars but I don't want to spend that much just to realize again that my local files will always be preferable.

I added an Ethernet filter which then uses a very short run of cable to my streamer.  Very good results and positive bang for the buck.  There are many choices out there at varying prices.

The more robust, but more expensive, way to get the noise floor down is an audio grade switch to clean up the signal. Good luck.
