@billallen10  +1  and a helpful post. Thank you.

@almarg   Thanks, as always for sharing your thoughts on these matters. +1 on this and your other posts in the thread.

@benzman  Thanks for sharing your findings. You make an important point. I've also had your Audience SX and the Supra CAT8 in my system and concur with your results.

Great post, Geoff. Thanks!

FYI I have a cure for cancer that works 100%. I sell my elixir for only $10,000 a bottle. This contains enough to treat any cancer for an adult. A friend tried it and the results are amazing, he even started running Marathons and entered an Ironman competition three weeks after the first dose (three doses will cure all cancer). Previously he was bed ridden for three years. Even his wife noticed a difference!!!

Given the age of the population here, there are undoubtedly members and readers of this forum that are waging their very personal battles with cancer, and most certainly have family members or other loved ones they are close to that may be at various stages of cancer related illnesses, including nearing death.

It may be wise and compassionate to show sympathy and empathy.

@chrshanl37 You miss my point, while making it.

Sorry to hear of your sister's and family's loss.

@chrshanl37  Chris, PM sent.

@markalarsen   Which cable are you using? Thanks.

@markalarsen   Looking forward to the outcome of your comparison.

I will be comparing the Wireworld (as well) in the near future.

Thanks.

For reference, I am using Supra CAT 8 for all LAN connections except for the final leg which is:

Switch > SoTM dCBL-CAT7 > SoTM iSO-CAT 6 Filter > SoTM Black Network Cable > Sonore Signature Rendu SE 

@t_ramey Jay Luong of Audio Bacon does a terrific job describing the Black cable, in various combinations with other LAN cables, including SoTM’s iSO-CAT 6 filter and dCBL-CAT 7.

Go to the ’My Favorite Combinations’ section (prior to the Conclusion) in Jay’s very thorough article / review:

The Black cable can be chosen as part of the SE bundle but can also be ordered separately. If you are US based (here):
