AudioQuest RJ/E Vodka Ethernet Cable

Vodka

Over the past several years there’s been a revolution in the way people store, distribute, and access digital media (in real time), including photos, movies, and, of course, music. No longer dependent on physical media, our media is often data that’s moved from multiple devices to multiple locations. For audio applications and protocols, audio over Ethernet offers the virtues of high-speed, low time delay (latency), significant distance capability (1000 feet without an active booster or repeater), and extremely low-jitter, bit-perfect communication. Who wouldn’t want all of these things?

 SOLID 10% SILVER CONDUCTORS

Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications, like Ethernet audio. These signals, being such a high frequency, travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but priced much closer to solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost effective way of manufacturing very high-quality Ethernet cables.

SOLID HIGH-DENSITY POLYETHYLENE INSULATION

Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect circuit. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy (loss). Some of this energy is stored and then later released as distortion. Solid High-Density Polyethylene Insulation ensures critical signal-pair geometry while minimizing insulation-induced phase distortion.

CARBON-BASED NOISE-DISSIPATION SYSTEM (NDS)

100% shield coverage is easy. Preventing captured RF Interference from modulating the equipment’s ground reference requires AQ’s Noise-Dissipation System. Metal and Carbon-Loaded synthetics prevent most RFI from reaching the equipment’s ground plane.

DIRECTIONALITY

All audio cables are directional. The correct direction is determined by listening to every batch of metal conductors used in every AudioQuest audio cable. Arrows are clearly marked on the connectors to ensure superior sound quality. For best results have the arrow pointing in the direction of the flow of music. For example, NAS to Router, Router to Network Player.

TERMINATIONS:

  • Precision-made low-loss ultra-wide bandwidth connectors with 100% shield coverage and strain relief.

HIGH-SPEED DATA CAPACITY:

  • The Cat 7 cable standard has been created to allow 10- Gigabit Ethernet over 100 m of copper cabling.

My 2 x English Electric EE1’s are placed in and out of my English Electric 8Switch. That feeds my Roon Rock Server via a Meridian Custom Cat7 Cable.

My first AudioQuest Vodka RJ/E cable spent some 36 hours burning-in - connected between my EE8Switch and SOtM Network Audio Bridge/Meridian Prime/PSU. The result was that it sufficiently opened-up the performance of my Focal Stellia headphones. Conclusion: it was worth the expenditure.

Then, to experiment, I removed my Meridian Custom Cat7 Cable connecting my Meridian 210 to my 218 and replaced it with the same AQ Vodka RJ/E Cable. Result: what an astounding/massive difference! My Meridian M6’s now go much deeper than I thought was possible, while still delivering the same midrange and treble.

I’ve had to turn-off the Meridian recommended low volume ‘loudness’ setting on my 218, and also trim the gain setting on my Meridian DSW.2 by 3db. The overall Music performance remained deep and fluid, despite the adjustments. Volume set to 50 is now more than enough to upset the neighbours, if you will.

That’s why I purchased another Vodka RJ/E Cable from Analogue Seduction

As Good The Reviews

Most reviews and HiFi Magazines seem to recommend this as being one of the best Ethernet cables.
Having now bought one they are correct - it is that good.
Huge improvement over previous cables bought ie Meicord, Melco and Cinnamon.
