The sonic performance of a digital audio system that uses networked components is dependent upon the capabilities of the cables that connect the components together. The Octave Cat 8 cable from Pine Tree Audio is a gamechanger Category 8 cable for connecting your resolution audio equipment with absolute bit-perfect performance. 

This level of performance is achieved by the use of true 22AWG solid copper conductors, which provide the lowest possible resistance to the signal.  Braided shielding and individual pair foil shielding is used for superior noise rejection. This allows for long lengths to be used and also for the Octave to be run next to other noise-generating components with no issue.  

Robust all-metal connectors are used for superior EMI/RFI shielding, ground contact, and durability. The pins of the connector are plated with 50 microns of gold to make the best possible contacts with the receiving jack. This combination takes full advantage of the grounded RJ-45 jacks on audiophile equipment and provides a noise and error free path to transport your audio data. These features enable the Octave Cat 8 to be compatible with all types of ethernet devices and is capable of speeds 4 times faster than Cat 6!

The sonic results of the Octave Cat 8 can be best described by one of our customers who wrote in a review of this cable:

"When I play music, the walls melt away and are replaced with a soundstage that is both deep and wide. And if you love musical niceties as much as I do, prepare to be captivated by previously undiscovered details in your recordings."
