Ethernet cable for Naim MuSo 2

Hi,

I’m about to purchase a MuSo 2nd generation. I need to purchase a long ethernet cable and don’t want to skimp on buying a really cheap one.

I have a Gigabit Ethernet Switch (STP ports) behind the TV, so I am thinking about a good quality STP Cat6 cable, although I see the MuSo uses an UTP Ethernet port only.

Would I get any benefit from an STP cable in this case? Or shall I just go UTP but a decent Cat6 cable?

Thanks for any help

Nick

My view is that amazon basics cable will work as good as anything. I use a standard patch cable on my Muso 2.

Get a Blue Jeans Cat6a and be done with it. More than an Amazon Basics but much better. Order direct from them but also available on Amazon in certain sizes.

My MuSo 2 came with a VANDESAIL Flat Cat 7 cable. They are available online for a reasonable price and the build quality looks quite good. Made in China.

Look for a certified Cat 5e cable (or Cat 6), really, it’s all you need.

What’s “long”?
I think everything to 20m should be no hassle without “broken” cables; according to specs, up to 100m should work. :wink:
