Basic switch....should I upgrade?


I'm using a D-Link switch into a EtherRegen (with an AfterDark PSU & Clock) via a Signature Ethernet Cable. Coming out of the EtherRegen I use a basic fiber optic cable into my streamer. (All connects/cables not mentioned are upgraded.)

Simply put, should I upgrade the switch or does the fantastic EtherRegen clean up the switch's audio shortcomings?

Please don't tell me to get a TT!

I covered my Netgear switch and plug in 3M EMI/RFI shielding absorber, used the filters below on the ethernet cable and put a choke of on the cord from the wall wart.

I had the choke and absorber paper left over from another project.
