I acquired a shielded Cat 7 LAN cable, one metre long, with shielded RJ45 plugs.
Three friends came around for a few hours. After some careful listening (and a few glasses of wine, since we live in Cape Town, South Africa), we came to the conclusion that on complex orchestral music, the sound was cleaner. On "commercial" music, there was no difference
The computer (a MacBook) was attached directly via the LAN cable. The previous LAN cable was one I made up using solid Cat5, about 800mm long
