Can Chinese HiFi Cables Make A DIFFERENCE? - Monosaudio Audiophile Interconnects

absolute snake oil, people buy these overpriced ethernet cables when the data is coming up el cheapo optical or copper lines from the internet provider and then when its in house it goes up a 30 cent rj45 socket and cable to the modem and you think a good cable from router to decvice makes a difference,, i can stream 4k from the internet and im using a $1.50 ethernet cable

Thank you for the detailed information and honest listening impressions ! Still people will claim snake oil despite everything you've said. Keep the videos coming!

Digital protocols are designed to secure data , like UDP and TCP one used for streams and ensure data packets arrive in right order and other that packets arrive on time , you cant get a better 0 or 1 if the signal do not work you hear it right away, like CD skipping its working or not working, noting is " trans" in digital world , sorry

The only cables worth spending money on, are a good set of ANALOG Audio Interconnects. Those do require high quality cables. The rest, Digital and Ethernet, complete fake. Digital is "1" or "0," those bits and bytes either arrive, or they don't. Build quality is good, yes.. but if you think your digital audio "sounds better", than a complete fool.
The same goes for power cables, A good quality power filter is all you may ever need. A properly designed power supply has all the required design to filter, and stabilize the energy your audio equipment needs. A $500 Power Cable will NOT improve your audio. NO one, in any true, blind test, would ever hear a difference between a $10 Power Cable, and a $500 one. If you say you can, I think you're lying.

The Chinese cable serve their intended purpose. They're pretty.
Personally, I enjoy the comedy of audiofools bickering about shit they can neither audibly perceive - or electronically/acoustically measure.

The best test is to remove the new cable after a period of time and reinstall the old one. This will give you the best test.

can you provide direct link on power cable P903M0 ? can't seem to find one in store you gave link to. thanks in advance

The problem that most ignore is the noise in the grid. I’ve got powerline adapters at home and they are polluting like hell. The modulation is so strong that it’s causing popping and buzzing in my phono amplifier. I had to invest in shielded power cables and power filters to get rid of that.

why no speaker cables? That's where things get really interesting

Euhhhh, Ethernet cables for “audio improvements”????

That’s bullshit.
If a cat8 is better than a cat6, yes,
thanks to better wires, better shielding, better shielding between pairs…
the data transmission inside it, csma/cd, has nothing to do with analog noise floor or jitter.
Ethernet has its own clock, collision detect and does not transmit any power to an analog system…

So, what you talk about Ethernet is very strange…

Otherwise, globally, your video are well made.
I can confess that 👍

this all sounds nice and all but who ensures ALIEXPRESS cables use the materials they claim? OCC copper/silver and so on specially

Of course they can't sound better or worse. They only feed the power in.

1. So I shouldn't listen to "them" (who make bold claims about cables improving sound), but I should listen to you (who was given a power cable and assured people that it makes, ehm, dynamics better). Data: Trust me, bro.
2. I guess you would be able to distinguish a 5-euro ethernet cable from the one that costs 60 euros in a blind audio tests, as you claim that however small, there's a difference? If so, why don't you present that?
3. Is there any snake oil that you also advertise, by any chance?

Your main premise is completely incorrect. If you say you can hear it, there is a machine that can measure it. You don’t have AB testing to show Making your whole assertion invalid. What you hear is done with the most biased machine possible, the human brain. So unless your previous cables were damaged, you won’t hear a difference. This is not opinion it’s fact.

Imagine thinking cables for an error correcting gigabit protocols will be making a difference to your sound setup in ant way. It's even nonsense for actual audio signal carriers.
Imagine thinking that power cables also make a difference, even though every audio product nowadays has AC/DC converter with incredibly good filtering. Plus, if your power cable actually gets noise introduced to it, you're probably working in an industrial radio tower and your head is heating up from all the microwaves

My favorite Chi Fi cables are found on eBay.

I use the pure silver power cables that are copper in color, braided and use Furutech NCF ends.

My favorite sounding RCA cables are the oil filled cables. They have that purity of sound like any other silver but offers a very open sound.

ETH have no sound. TCP/IP, UDP, and any other protocols don't know and don't care what is inside frame/packet payload. Nor do they change picture in video stream or make pdf print crispier in network printer.

Make a video of you passing an ABX double blind test otherwise you're just making unsubstantiated claims.

Talk is cheap
If you can't SHOW it
You don't KNOW it

Not sure about the price point, but they look beautiful.

Monosaudio really nails it with the build quality. I'm impressed!

Where can I find these cables?

Comparing different cables in real-time is such a smart approach—thanks for sharing your insights! I can’t wait to try upgrading my set-up.”

I appreciate how you focus on personal experience rather than pushing products. Keep it up!

I love how you clarified that a good cable won’t magically fix a poorly designed system. Makes so much sense!”

Understanding the difference in cable categories definitely clarified things for me. CAT 8 seems like a leap!”

I was skeptical about the sound improvement, but your experience has opened my eyes to how nuanced it can be.”

The details about the shielding layers were fascinating. I never knew there was so much that went into a simple cable!”

Great breakdown on cables, thanks!

Thanks for the thorough review!

Your honesty about audiophile cables is refreshing! It’s crucial for new listeners to understand that price doesn’t always equal performance.”

It’s a relief to hear a reviewer openly admit that not everyone may hear a difference—thanks for that perspective!”

Your explanation about power cables was enlightening!

These connections look super sturdy.

Soundstage improvement? That’s interesting!

Helpful review—appreciate your honest take!

Finally someone saying it like it is! I've always thought the marketing hype around cables was a bit overblown.”

Cables don’t equal magic sound!

Do these cables work with vintage gear?

Short answer is no but that applies to any 'audiophile-grade' cable wherever its made; but, you all do you as I don't care how much you spend on wishful thinking.

I've been doing this hi fi thing for 30 years now. Unless you have a very expensive setup, or a cable is extremely cheap or something is broken, cables wont make any meaningful difference or most likely wont make any differnce at all. Buy something inexpensive (but not $2 junk), and spend the $2000 you saved on a good DAC or Pre amp, or better still room treatment.. This will get you a huge sound improvment way beyond what cables could ever make. If you must get better cables make them yourself and save $$$$; with interconnects silver cables sound detailed but glarey. silver plated copper is more detailed than copper without the glare. its very hard to hear any difference between copper and copper. Ballenced will usualy improve noise floor and ground hum and is worth changeing to

After watching this, I’m seriously reconsidering my views on audio cables. The sound differences you highlighted might be the upgrade my system needs.

I’ve always been skeptical about cables making a difference, but your testing method was really convincing. I think it’s worth giving these a try, especially at that price point.

Video was super informative! The audible differences you demonstrated help justify investing in quality cables. I might have to order a few and see how they perform with my setup.

I appreciate you addressing the prejudice around Chinese products. It's nice to see value where it's often overlooked, and I’m curious about how they hold up in the long run.

Now I'm excited to upgrade my cables! If they can enhance my listening experience even a bit, it feels like money well spent.

Your review made a strong case for these cables. It’s interesting to think about how something so simple can have such an impact on audio quality.

I hope you all are enjoying the time, money, and effort I put into this video, as much as you enjoy your audio system. I hope all of you can achieve the highest level of audio satisfaction and be as happy with it as possible.
