RE: Ethernet cable quality - Music or sound - 15-Dec-2016

Supra makes a CAT8 one http://www.jenving.com/products/view/cat-8-stp-patch-1001908589 which is quite reasonable and supposed to sound better than Audioquest. I am waiting for a new Macbook Pro and I am wondering how thunderbolt 3/ USB-C will work with ethernet/AIR (using a dongle)?


RE: Ethernet cable quality - frejo - 15-Dec-2016

The price of the Supra is only appr. 1/10 of the Vodka, which is nice. I'll try one out and see (hear). Where did you hear that it's better than AQ?

Never read a review or report that the Supra's are better than a Vodka or Diamond so I'm curious to that as well and also to which specific AQ model(s) it was compared (AQ has five).

I can recall that it fitted just fine, of course the cable is a bit firm.

So did anyone try AIR ethernet with a recent Macbooks Pro which replaced ethernet with thunderbolt3/USB-C + dongle?

Ok, thanks. I can wiggle the plug quite a lot so something is probably wrong here...

Just one guy there who compared the Supra to AQ and it was an AQ Cinnamon.
