Connecting a streamer via an Ethernet cable


Is there a noticeable difference connecting a streamer directly to an External cable as opposed to WiFi? The reason I ask, is that doing so with my situation would require a fair amount of effort. But if it’s worth it, I’m willing to do it. Thanks.

My streamer is a MacBook Pro and when I moved from WiFi to either network gigabyte the difference in quobuz was one of the most noticeable upgrades i ever made to date. Two biggest notables are bass and soundstage. It makes sense as WiFi has limitations on the speed and amount of data that you don’t get with a hardwired delivery. My next upgrade on this same line is bringing in fiber through the small green computer solution. I still love vinyl and will not turn this into one of those arguments. Bottom line I love music from any source I can and like some more than others but it is about the music in the end!
