Description
Way Cable Mind : Ethernet Cable
Although measurement results confirm that MIND Ethernet audio cable exceeds Category 8.1 standards (ISO11801 PL Class I), we at WAY Cables want to emphasise something even more essential for the audiophiles.
First of all, the MIND is Ethernet cable created to take the leading role in the connection of High-End network audio electronics.
MIND will show exceptional sound outcomes when used for the transmission of digital audio records stored on the Network Audio Server/Library device to the external DAC/Streamer. Its second function is to be equally useful for high-resolution online music streaming.
During development for almost two years period, in WAY Cables, we were focused on the needs of network audio electronics to fully protect music data transmission from any interference that degrades and affected the sound.
The Ethernet cable MIND is allowing the High-End network audio electronics to show their full potentials in the music reproduction. MIND Ethernet cable features are full-bodied neutral and analogue sound with deep background silence that creates a vast music stage and exceptional tonal accuracy.
Such success was achieved by unique design UXD5-WAY™ with Single Crystal Silver solid wires, as well as with using separate and multilayer shielding. Additional exclusive and premium materials and completely manual production enabled exceeding of industrial Category 8 production standards. However, MIND is not only superior by its physical and technical characteristics.
The MIND‘s crucial advantages are the sound results that can’t be reached by industrially manufactured Ethernet cables. Therefore, the point is that MIND is made for music and audio purposes, and serves for High-End network audio electronics, unlike most other Ethernet cables on the market.
