ISO-PLUS Ethernet RF Filters vs Fiber Optic Cable

I would seriously advise you on Network Acoustic ENO filter , it goes after the switch into the Ethernet input. It made an incredible difference to my setup and they give you 30 days to return it if your not impressed.

Yes, Network Acoustics is your best option! 

eno, or uptone ether regen... 

Accustic Revive has Ethernet filters as will, 

Does the Network Acoustics device perform a different function

than the Uptown Regen I have now?

Well, I am using an etherRegen switch sending the optical cable (fiber optics) to my Lumin dac. I couldn't believe the improvement in sound quality with using the optical cable over ethernet cable.

Optical is the only hundred percent isolation solution. Now its been reported on another thread Innuos claims optical conversion generates noise that makes it inferior to ethernet. I find that highly doubtful, based on both my experience and many others. On the presumption it may be true in any particular setup, there are a number of variables that may make this possible.

FMC's (fiber media converters) are not of a single quality. You can have generic FMC powered by SMPS, generic powered by LPS, and finally, much higher quality FMC such as the Sonore Opticalrendu line. I have experienced all three levels of optical conversion, Sonore plays on entirely different level.

I've not tried the positively reviewed, and I assume very good performing Acoustic Network Eno, but it, or any filter cannot one hundred percent completely isolate network noise as optical can.

For the skeptics, I only ask they try optical vs. their best ethernet solutions and report.

I'd also add, one should read John Swenson's papers on network optimization, John is perhaps preeminent audio network engineer.

I use both fmc optical and the accustic revive filters, 3 of them actually fmc to switch , switch to server , server to dac.

How do you find the Acoustic Revive?

I'm looking at their RLI-1GB-TRIPLE-C

Thanks for the feedback.  I decided to switch from TIDAL to Qobuz and use MCconect instead of ROON.  I'll try that for a while before making any other changes.

I have only tried the accustic revive so I can’t comment on the others but they strip away a lot of the dirt . I’d like to get a couple more for the router side in the future.
