I have wi-fi connection in my home, as we all do. I plan on wiring my home and not using wi-fi at all. It gives me a headache, I know it shouldn't, being that it has such a low power output.
Does anyone else have this problem?
WiFi Streaming Versus An Ethernet Cable Connection
Hey All,
I have a fairly new Bryston BDP 3 streamer/renderer. I haven't been all that happy with the sound of streaming on Qobuz. However may local files on my SSD sound astonishing. The router I'm using is standard for 500 GB but it's nothing special. I'm currently connected to my BDP 3 with a utilitarian 7 cat ethernet cable. Instead of buying a better modem/router and audiophile ethernet cable, I'm considering Bryston's WiFi dongle. Anybody familiar with wireless HiFi streaming? Thanks!

I’ve only ever streamed via Ethernet. After reading this thread, I became curious about how it would sound via Wi-Fi so I disconnected Ethernet. Well crap! Now my tiny mind thinks listening via Wi-Fi is slightly more holographic. Live and learn. Conventional wisdom may not hold true in all instances. |
@fredrik222 ' For me it is following the specs of the services you intend to support, and the Bryson doesn’t. It has a smaller buffer than what Qobuz and Tidal mandates as one example that I am aware of, I am sure there are others. ' This could be true but I've never heard or seen anything to substantiate it. Do you have a citation from someone reputable that supports and clarifies this claim? I'd like to read it if so. |
