Looks like a CAT5 patch to me. 24/192 is hardly a lot of data compared to gigabit ethernet so if they've managed to design a protocol which somehow requires "magic cable" for that data rate they should be taken out back and shot (along with the SPDIF guys). -- radish ---

How strange. This does appear to be a real Denon product and is listed on the Denon website. It seems baffling to me given the Denon brand image. I am not in marketing but I would expect a product like this to devalue the Denon brand far more than it will ever earn despite a presumably enormous

Ignoring the price (which is just STUPID) I think they are claiming that the Denon Ethernet interface is better for sound quality than SPDIF etc, rather than the cable actually improving SQ over ethernet... I think many heare might agree with that. At least that's the way I read it. YMMV. --
