Well if you hear all these artifact after the firmware update, adding any of the Ethernet gadgets you listed is not going to address your issues. What else changed in the system? Can you back out the update and reinstate the previous version? One simple and 100% free thing to try is to reboot everything. Start with router, then access points if any. Reboot your dac then reboot your streamer when the network is back up and running.
Network Acoustics Products?
Fellow Audio Fanatics -
I recently updated my Innuos ZENith mk3 to their 2.6 software. While I was initially incredibly impressed with the sonic upgrade. While the upgrade has provided a more resolving sound, I am now hearing some digital glare and harshness in the system.
And I had just been sure I had things dialed in for awhile…!
I’ve read some older forums where Network Acoustics and their filtering devices come highly regarded. I was hoping some of you with direct experience to provide some guidance.
- What impact has the eno, muon or tempus products made in your systems?
- While I don’t think I’ll be able to invest in the Tempus, wondering how big of a difference I would find between eno and muon?
- Do I need to purchase a network switch to sit between my WiFi extender and the Network Acoustic Products? Sorry, but I seem to read contradictory things on that front…
Thanks in advance!

I’m with @carlsbad2 on this one. |
@bluethinker is this still your system?
Is the digital glare evident with both sets of speakers? If you had rebooted all your network and streaming components and it didn’t help, I would start with replacing the aftermarket power cords on streamer and DAC. Put the stock cables back on, allow it an hour to settle then listen. If the the digital glare is gone or reduced, introduce the aftermarket power cords one by one. See if that’s the problem. What ICs and speaker cables are you using? |
