EtherREGEN or LHY SW-6? Anyone compare the 2? Thoughts/opinions?

@maxwave Thank you. Yes sometime in June I understand the ER G2 will be out. I think if I go with ER I’ll go with the original.

@12many Thank you very much, also very helpful! Appreciate the honesty. I Speke with Alvin at Vinshine (customer service doesn’t get any better than Alvin and Vinshine) and he said the SW-6 is a great match with the Eversolo. Alvin is nothing if not honest. I too am using Shunyata Delta V2 on my DAC and Processor. I have an excellent DH Labs power cable I’ll be using on the SW-6. Definitely leaning in the direction of the SW-6 and will post once I make the call…

Thanks to All for your time and advice!

EtherRegen  generation 2  will have a SFP  connection on ´´ B ´´  Port .

I will get one .

@maxwave I also spoke with Alex from UpTone and the Gen2 will be in very high demand and hard to get. It’ll sell out quick. The heat generated by the ER is what concerns me. Plus I don’t want to wait that long. Right now the Gen 1 is in stock and ready to ship.

There is a ´´ thermo Kit ´´ for EtherRegen .

Must works for  EtherRegen generation 2

+1 for LHY. Etheregen initially sounds like its offering improved clarity, but to my ears the sound is a bit un natural, brittle and tiring after a while, which is not uncommon in my experience with media convertors. It is improved with the afterdark clock, but personally I prefer the etheregen coming in and and out of the "a" side using it like a tradtional switch. and avoiding the "moat". Things have moved on quite a bit since the ER came out and the LHY is beautifully made and more importantly has a far more balanced, natural sound and realistic sound stage, is also times a lot better which is hard to find in switches. Obvs just my two cents and i know theres a lot of love out there for the ER
