No eyebrows raised to the 'conclusion'. Chinese/noname Cat6a failed the Fluke test meter - no surprise there. Viewing the layout of their 'test setup' in Vegas I'm not surprised they heard no difference. Ethernet cabling was clearly not the weakest link.  Agreed. You do need a certain level of equipment and environment to be able to hear differences in cables. However, were the cables on test on speaker runs, or carrying audio information, or just network information? I'm more dubious about the latter making a difference, although I admit I haven't done any listening tests myself for that application and wouldn't completely dismiss it out of hand.
