Ways to make your digital streaming sound better


Having tried a lot of different methods including fiber optic , sonically Conventional 

Quality ethernet cable sounds more realistic , first at your modem router combo -get rid of the $5 wall wart it is nothing but added noise . Little green computer sells a decent 8 amp 12 v type for $300, that was much better , better still was the                 Linear Tube Audio LPS , on your router it states the voltage and most are around 4 amp. These LPS  go to 8 amp for $700 on Audiogon .  Then you need a respectable Ethernet switch,the best one I have found has a LPS built in as well as a OCxo clock -LHY -SW8 , you need 2 Ethernet cables ,your best one goes to your Streamer ,that’s where it makes the biggest improvement . 
with the latest Eversolo DMP -A8; really made a nice improvement just by doing these few things  many Audiophiles overlook .your streamer will thank you as well as your ears . Excellent streamer dac -preamp for under $2k .Many Excellent reviews . a mini review to follow

@tomic601 ,

I believe tosh is slang for a bunch of hooey, balderdash, nonsense, and other such mugwumpery.

what is a “ tosh “ ?

Garbage. You should get out more you cave dweller. And get fiber. 

@thecarpathian so sweet of you a Peach Hat.

Bet your still on dialup and AOL.

Cave dwellers and you poke yourself in the Third Eye every time you wipe your peach. You truly are the pride of Neanderthal New Hampshire.

@audphile1 No our Neighborhood, you are not a wise guy, think you are more like Pussy from that lame show.
