@carlsbad2 you are always wrong, so there is a reason to my disagreement.
since you think that Qobuz and others uses stateless protocols, post a pcap proving your point.
Ethernet Switch- what's the point?
I run an Ethernet cable between my router (standard issue from Verizon) and my streaming transport. I note that some use an ethernet switch between between the router and streamer. Assuming I got that right, what is the point- what does a good switch do? I've been into audio since the 70's but when its comes to streaming, I'm definitely a newbie-
Thanks all!

There is an interesting Live Blind Test Switches on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HNMMksiD_Q The two guys don't agree: on prefers and expensive audiophile switch and the other a standard pretty cheap switch. I was contemplating buying the cheaper one, but never did.

@yoyoyaya Well, Occam's razor applies. If there is not way a switch can improve anything, which is a fact and how Ethernet and TCP/IP is designed, guess what is the next option? |
