FWIW, I used to own a Sonore opticalRendu which was using fiber optic conversion. It was really good, but my current combination of Eno + Innuos Zenith is more natural sounding as @lalitk mentioned in his post. I don't think optical is best by default -- like most things it depends on the rest of your system and preferences.
Which Ethernet filter?
Hello all,
My new Innuos streamer system is coming along nicely, and I've been startled how my A-B comparison of USB cables affected the overall SQ - I settled on the FTA Sinope. I'm now looking at enhancing the ethernet feed to the Innuos.
Presently, I have the SotM ISO-CAT7 (limited Red edition with dCBL-CAT7u cable to DAC), and noticed a lift in detail once installed.
I'm very interested in the Network Acoustics ethernet options. Has anyone compared either the Eno or Muon systems to the either the IS0-CAT6 or ISO-CAT7?
Many thanks,
Mark
