No, I got you, I just don't believe it. Not even remotely. :) For all the reasons I cited in that post and the previous one. Again, I am not an engineer, but in a computer (server), that same ethernet port would sit next to tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars of memory. Next to processors, I/O ports, etc. And in a data centre, it would likely be surrounded by 100 other ethernet cables. So I understand what you are saying, I just don't buy it. And I understand you are driving at an impact on the signal once it becomes analog, but heck, memory is switched by an electric signal. If ethernet could generate an impact on the analog signal in a transporter, it could flip bits in memory. And it can't. Also, it occurred to me that the end of the cable is not shielded, right? Or no signal at all would get through... so... No difference at all between shielded and unshielded cable as it terminates at the port. -- Apparition ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apparition's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14825 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42094 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
