Sonic differences between CAT5 and CAT6 cables?


I was just wondering if anyone has documented any sonic differences between the two types of cables. I'm using CAT 5 with the PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC and Bridge, but I thought that I'd read somewhere that CAT 6 might actually sound better? Does anyone know if there is an audiophile grade CAT cable?
Thanks for helping out as usual and Merry New Year!

I apologize in advance for any terseness present in this posting, but for Heaven's sake, forget about CAT 5, 6 or 6000 for that matter! There are so many fine sounding, well constructed, reasonably priced speaker cables available that using "computer cable" designs is just silly. I have compared CAT cables to even modest audiophile offerings and there is no contest. If you look through Audiogon alone, you'll find many excellent offerings that will offer what CAT cables were neither intended nor designed to give you.

Spend wisely and enjoy the music!
