When I use any ethernet cable other than the stock cable that came with my Bluesound Node2 I get much noise. I have tried three, the latest being a Nordost Heimdall2. The other 2 I heard about here, Monoprice and Supra both cat8. ???
So, turns out it was a grounding issue. The Node2 was plugged into a Shunyata Typhon/Triton Hydra stack along with the Pass XP-25 phono stage and when I unplugged the Pass it disappeared. The Node2 is plugged in elsewhere and it sounds fine. Thanks for the replies!
