Ethernet Clocking


i had previously reported that adding an Antelope 10m rubidium clock to the Etherregen results in major tightening of soundstage and location of individual instruments. To my great surprise adding filtering on the BNC 75 Ohms connection between clock and Etherregen results in substantial additional benefits. The filter used is a Mini-Circuits BLP-10.7-75+ DCto11MHZ model.

We are only beginning to understand how to maintain clean clocking on digital connections, it is of paramount importance to SQ.

To everyone except @lmcmalo, who seems to be only one of the rare ones who knows what he is talking about, do others really think a 1 or a 10 gigabit ethernet phy would work if it had faulty clocking to begin with ?

I use netgear bridges at home (4 of them daisy chained in one room) at about 25 bucks each with their non-audiophile walwarts and they sound perfect :-)

I never said NOTHİNG makes a difference. What I said is most of the drivel discussed sometimes in this forum does not make a difference... like Ethernet clocking, like directional fuses bathed in rhino urine, like unobtanium stones lifting speaker cables, etc. etc. There is a difference 😄
