Well. As I read through the WBF pages I seem to find more than my share of cable questions that are related to my own experience , as subjective as that may be.
My trajectory could be more described as fumbling around then a strategic plan.
I started with AQ vodka on everything
Went to Wireworld Starlight
Then went to Wireworld Platinum on everything
Then to a mix of AQ Diamond and WW platinum
Now all AQ Diamond is gone , one length of 32’ Wireworld platinum still resides and all the various patch cords are Shunyata Sigmas.
I honestly don’t believe there is a night and day difference between any of the upper Ethernet cables . I would suppose that each brings some different attributes as to how they do what they do. I liked all of them however after putting the Sigmas in there is a natural ease to everything being played I simply didn’t get from any other brand.
I think you really should try all the cables , likely on the last leg first, to determine what’s going to work best for you because they are all good… and… I’m not convinced once you get to the upper levels of this kind of digital cable their are huge differences
as a reference my audio network looks like this:
-cable company modem >
-WW Starlight 1 metre>
-Ediscreation Fibre Box II>
-WW Platinum Starlight (32’)>
-Ediscreation Switch>
-Shunyata Sigma (1.5 metre)>
-Innuos Zenith MKII>
-Shunyata Sigma (1.5 metre)>
-Ediscreation Fibre box II >
-Shunyata Sigma (1.5 metre) >
-Auralic Aries G2.1 >
-AudioQuest Dragon HDMI (.75 metre)
