Rhodium...hmmm
surfaces meeting between receptable and PC are unlikely to be either even or tight. Most likely different metals will be forming the contact. In my experience a good contact enhancer such as Mad Scientist is well neigh indispensable  
Rhodium...hmmm
Rhodium with Mad Scientist contact enhancer works perfectly well  
Which power cords have high resolutions and separation??
@timetraveler66  Religious fervour. Might this actually depend on the resolution of the system used? Or do you simply know better?  
Router for Audio Streaming
@brunomarcs  in areas that aren’t densely populated @yoramguy1 is entitled to that view on a well implemented router connection. Wifi is subject to EMI/RFI And ground level noise which may well not be present in a rural setting  
Streamer Recommendation.
There is a new set of Innuos streamers about to be launched. With your budget I’d look at the Pulsar which includes a USB reclocker and decrapifier. InnuOS Sense App is superb.

@ebm  Are you advocating jumping on cables as a new tweak?🤫    
The character of analog and digital
@lalitk,@charles1dad, well put, moderation is wisdom

In my experience single core beats Litz everyday in terms of leading edge and impulse response. Think Acoustic Revive, Nordost. Also using an Add-Powr conditioner is a highly cost effective way of upgrading the supply side  
The character of analog and digital
@sns, +1, digital doesn’t have the euphonic distortions typical of vinyl but can sound harsh when poorly implemented. I’d also generally recommend valve amplification with digital with its more benign higher harmonics distortions compared to sili... 
DACs that do well without a preamp
Find a used Antelope Zodiac Gold or Platinum. They are superb  
Mutec MC 3+ and CTronic After Dark Clock
@rodge827  Wordclocks run at speeds of typically 40-48kHz. Masterclocks such as the ones you mention run at 10mHz, devices with wordclock inputs therefore generally need devices such as the Mutec MC3+. The latter‘s performance can be further impr... 
Mutec MC 3+ and CTronic After Dark Clock
The Mutec is a wordclock operating at lower rates than the After Dark 10m clock. The After Dark clock further improves the Mutec MC 3+ Mutec have their own much more expensive offering of a 10m clock for that purpose  
The character of analog and digital
@mikelavigne  far away from wanting to prove you wrong! I am just pointing out that digital would have to have a fundamental problem yet to be identified to be eternally inferior to vinyl. Enjoy the music.  
The character of analog and digital
@mikelavigne , your postulate of asymptotical closing of the gap between vinyl and digital seems counterfactual: vinyl suffers from distortions simply not present in digital, e.g. tracking angle on conventional tone arms, warp and flutter dependi...
