A serious streaming cable for network audio systems where the digital source is central to the system.When Streaming Becomes the Main SourceStreaming quality is not only about the app, service, or streamer. The network connection sits inside a noisy environment of routers, switches, power supplies, racks, and nearby electronics before the music reaches the system.When streaming is the everyday source, the cable between network components becomes part of the audio path. A better connection can help the system sound calmer, more spacious, and more continuous.Chosen for High-Quality Network AudioWe chose the Chord Epic Streaming cable because it is designed specifically for streaming audio. Chord describes it as using high-quality silver-plated conductors, high-speed insulation, high-density shielding, and a precision RJ45 connector modified so the conductors can be soldered directly to the contact pins.That last detail matters. The connector is often the weak point in a network cable, and Chord's approach gives the streaming path a more complete end-to-end construction.What the Specs Won't Tell YouStreaming Feels More Relaxed and Continuous. Better shielding and conductor quality help reduce the noise that can make streamed music feel tense or flattened.Space Around the Music Is Easier to Hear. High-density shielding helps protect the connection from noise around racks, switches, and power supplies.The Connector Is Part of the Upgrade. The modified precision RJ45 connector allows the conductors to be soldered directly to the contact pins, strengthening a part of the cable that is easy to overlook.The Audio Two VerdictEpic Streaming is the cable we would consider when streaming has become the main source and the rest of the system is ready for a better network connection. It makes sense between router and switch, switch and streamer, or switch and networked amplifier.This is a stronger step than simply cleaning up the rack. It helps the streaming source feel more like a serious front end, with better ease, more natural space, and less of the tension that can creep into digital playback.Tech You Can Hear What You Hear Why It Happens Streaming sounds calmer and more continuous High-density shielding helps reduce noise around the network connection More space around voices and instruments High-quality silver-plated conductors support cleaner signal behaviour Better flow from a main streamer High-speed insulation is designed for streaming audio use A more complete end-to-end connection Modified precision RJ45 connector lets conductors solder directly to contact pins Cleaner rack and room integration Standard lengths support router, switch, streamer, and networked amplifier placement Technical Highlights Epic Streaming digital audio cable Designed for streaming audio High-quality silver-plated conductors High-speed insulation High-density shielding Modified precision RJ45 connector with direct conductor-to-contact soldering Available lengths: 1m through 10m Why Choose Audio TwoAudio Two ships across Canada.
