iFi LAN iSilencer connection


This can be plugged into the router or the streamer. My guess is it would be better plugged into the router if you have a well shielded ethernet cable.

Is there a preferred method or no difference?  

Thanks!

I hope you have better results than I had with the iFi Lan Silencer. It made no difference in my system and was returned.  My ethernet goes through optical to filter out noise so that may be the reason.  I ordered a returnable SmoothLan filter and will see if that has positive results.  🤞

Yep these devises are all about reducing noise not recovering lost or corrupted bits. I also tried the Pink Faun Lan filter and it didn’t make a difference on my main system but it did slightly improve my second system which also had optical filtering. Go figure, doesn’t always make sense logically and that is why you have to listen to one for yourself on your system. Especially if you are going to comment on a forum!

Next up the Smooth Lan per ozzy’s recommendation.
