should I get better Ethernet cables?

Digital Audio transmission has a slow speed requirement in comparison to fast gigabit requirements that are aimed at bulk data and video transmission. Also, foil shielding adds capacitance that causes audible ringing (jitter) that obscures low level detail. I do not use foil shielding in my audio ethernet cable design.
There are a few other tricks as well...

Very informative thanks. I use yours from Transport to DAC. Beat everything I tired in that position.

Charles,
I was on the Monoprice site again tonight. They have CAT 6, 6a, 7 and 8. Do you recall which you preferred? Great prices btw… I’d pick one up to experiment and use whichever I like least on the TV connection.

Cat 6 from router. If I did not need such a long run 4mtrs it would be TWL instead. Feeling cheap lately.
