“I preferred the copper” That’s been my experience as well. I have taken the approach to clean LAN grunge and block noise by adapting to Telegartner Opt Bridge 1000M - Optical Isolator. This gives me best of both worlds and I am extremely pleased with the results. I am using a pair of FTA Métis LAN cables in and out of Opt Bridge…I’m done tweaking my Streaming setup (for now). |

Hard to believe. I thought it was a very large improvement using the Fiber over Ethernet cable. At least with my Lumin, which accept fiber direct without needing a conversion adapter. I did however purchase some very good Transceivers. And I am going straight from my Lumin X1 to my amps. (No preamp). ozzy |
I noticed no reliably discernable difference and compared them side-by-side more than a few times. I am using fiber mainly because that is what my Sig Rendu SE accepts, and maybe a little because from a technology standpoint having zero chance of picking up EMI is still better than a small chance. If I heard a difference, I would pick the one that sounded best to me so, carry on whichever way you hear it. |
