Hi,
I was able to borrow this nice but quite expensive LAN cable by Marcin during this winter in conjunction with another purchase. My thought before I tried it was that “it possibly might be a bit better”, but then it's not worth the highly price and therefore I also would send the cable back. That was the plan. But I know that it also can be financially dangerous to test good and expensive things, it can be a “wow-effect” that becomes difficult to resist. That was exactly what happened. This Signature cable is really good, can not say something else. Although the one I had before (JCAT Reference) also is very good, this Signature will easily outperform it. The sound is much cleaner, more resolved from deep bass to highest treble. I can always hear a certain graininess with Reference, and I also think it’s reminiscent of the difference between JCAT SATA and the new JCAT SATA Reference. I experienced that difference and the improvement immediately, but actually first in recent days I have compared the cables with some new A-B test. The difference remains, I don’t want to replace this Signature I should also mention that it also are two JCAT Net Card Femto in my setup, powered by two separate LTO batteries. All together it’s a combination I believe is quite difficult to beat
Best Regards
Tomas
