OP, “For streaming you have packet loss, latency, bandwidth etc. which effect the signal prior to reception..”
A good streamer will buffer and cashe and completely make up for deficiencies in the data stream.
Spec-chart for digital cables
Don’t want to start a flame war but looking for a comparison chart for the specs on digital cables.
I have read multiple articles, digital coaxial vs optical vs HDMI vs USB, I would like a comparison chart showing bandwidth, through put etc.
I seem to read that USB provides the widest, followed by coaxial but would like to see a true comparison chart.
Also, would entertain a discussion of opinion of users, what experiences have users found?
Lastly, I understand the conversation might want to direct to the material of construction, but I would like to stick to the direct fact of the cable
