bluemoondriverFuses are tiny pieces of low value resistors which when heated to the correct temperature by excess current passing thru them, melt and avoid damage & a possible fire.They contribute ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to the sound.I just measure... 
BS Node 2i: WiFi or Ethernet..?
alephresearchEthernet wire does not introduce or capture any noise to its destination.  All is taken care of by the checksumming and error correction codes.There should be absolutely no problems.  I use more than 100 ft of ethernet cabling almost ... 
BS Node 2i: WiFi or Ethernet..?
feldmen4,I did not quite understand your issue but if it is a distance problem, you can always use a learning bridge to extend your range and connectivity.This device will do it for you perfectly.  I have 3 of these at home and ALL my connections ...

Equal $$ for Phono OR Streaming?

Suggest one obsure album we all should hear
Osibisa woyaya. (jazz/african/fusion, like you have never heard ever before from the 70’s).The 30 second double guitar at the end of the piece named "Y sharp" is unmatched by any artist or band ever to date.  It builds up to it slowly & incred...
