USB Switch Upgrade or Not

If you want great results thecAnsuz Dis better and like many out there

It starts with your router, since even wigh digital

Noise travdls from house to house and is not properly

Grounded. Put in a good LPS linear power supply 

At your routermodem combo you knock a good chunk

Of noise off the line, Linear Tube Audio makes a great one and $50 

Off if bought on Audiogon  $700 is not much and comes with a great dc cable 

To the router, put a decent power cord on this also.

Muon filter and Ethernet cables as well as Ethernet hub very good and they give a decent package deal price ,I have heard them several times,they and Ansuz Denmark are the best I have heard over $6k with cables but once you hear them 

night and day better then lhy sw8 like I have currently .

Ansuz make a great switch even better then innuos my brother sold his innuos for the D2 I think or newer model  there is a great company in the U.K I will share if you want a truly analog sounding streaming systems you need the 2 high quality Ethernet cables the Ethernet hub and maybe filter they make a very good filter $900 Thst plugs into each AC,Ethernet ,or rca ,it all adds up and $6k lighter in the pocket ,but that’s the price of removing all this noise ,especially sinc3 digital from house to house streaming is not grounded. One thing to mention 

never have a separate modem,router. I bought a much better Motorola 8702

it has faster bigger buffer processor wifi Thst your tv will love 

and get rid of the 💩 wall wart that comes with router ,pure noise .on Audiogon 

Linear Tube Audio LPS power supply for $700 a steal better then Anythjng ever at $1200 and comes with a great DC cable to router. On wall wart tell how many volt ,normally 12 volts and this LPS build great.I know parts quality very well .

router is around 4 amps ,this LPS good to 8 amps ,and can configure up to 19-20 volts.

I suggest you check out Kevalin Audio. He has some very good devices for sale, esp. the Wayversa.

I use them in my system. The owner is a very knowledgeable guy.

Hi @hysteve, in my experience a good switch has greatly improved my digital front end.

Standard Netgear = meh

EtherRegen = good

Bonn 8  = good

Network Acoustics Tempus = great

JCAT M12 = great

GTT / DeJitterit = great

Also a good Ethernet cable as last cable into Streamer or DAC

Additionally, the Network Acoustics Muon Pro filter is very nice.

This is all tried in my system and my findings!

I assume you meant Ethernet switch and not USB switch. 
I wouldn’t bother. Just use good Ethernet cable.
