Can there be too much?


Hi, All,

I posted this topic once before but wanted to get some more opinions from the brilliant minds heresmiley...

I recently added a Network Switch to my rig (LHY SW8) and removed my ADD-Powr Symphony I/O. The rest of my Streaming gear is:

Eversolo DMP-A6 Master (TP Power supply replacing original), feeding a DENAFRIPS Hermes DDC which is connected via I2S to A Pontus II 12th DAC.

 

Is there such a thing as too much/too many components that at some point may actually do more harm than good? I honestly have no idea if the Symphony will play nice with with the LHY in the same chain. Should I reconnect the Symphony  to my rig? Thoughts? I know only way to be sure is to try and then listen, but unfortunately access to my rig requires me to transform into a contortionist which is much harder now at 56 frown. Just wanted to get some opinions...Anyone familiar with the Symphony and if so, thoughts on that piece as well just because there's not a lot of info out there on it...

 

Thanks in advance for your time...

1. I would keep it down to a minimum necessary 

2. Do you think you’re missing something with that component out of the system?

 

Assuming your switch does no harm, I would just get a pair of excellent Ethernet cables and call it a day
