Aardvark Ethernet noise isolator

No, sorry.

The EtherRegen is essential to my set up because it outputs the fiber to my Lumin X1. There was no way to try the Aardvark after the EtherRegen. If it couldn’t improve at the front end, then I had no need for it.

But others should try it with different equipment it may just impress.

Nice to hear about your results on your system.  I just purchased 2 used Pink Faun Ethernet Isolators to try out in multiple locations: in front of my optical, after my optical and without my optical. Anyone else have experience using Pink Faun Isolators?

Don’t have them in my system but I’m told that in addition to the usual benefits of passing the signal through mini-transformers, the Pink Faun LAN isolator device works to shielding against high-frequency (HF) noise originating from the LAN network and components were chosen based on what they sound like rather than specs alone. 

@ozzy curious if you had ever tried copper to fiber media converters from amazon in place of your etherregen

A Pair of 1.25G/s Bidi Gigabit Multi-Mode Fiber Ethernet Media Converter with 2PCS Bidi SFP LC Dual Transceiver Module Included, 10/100/1000Base-Tx to 1000Base-SX SMF RJ45 to SFP Slot up to 550M

Yes, originally when I had the PS Direct Stream Dac, I used similar converters. They seemed to work well.
