| Is soundstage DEPTH a myth? Others have mentioned the ultimate demonstration disk by David Chesky and it is good, but his newest album, The Hifi Collection is superb! If you ever listen to Steve Gutenberg The Audiophiliac, he’s good friends with David Chesky and there’s a li... | |
| Why do I need a switch? I agree @jjss49 besides putting in the Ethernet to fiber, I’ve also been thinking about getting the Denifrips Iris DDC, but unlike the Ethernet to fiber boxes, the Iris isn’t going to be returnable, so it’s much farther down the list. | |
| Why do I need a switch? Thanks @jeffstrick for the answer. Seeing as this is only a test, I just ordered a couple of the Ethernet to fiber boxes from Amazon and we’ll see what happens. If I hear anything I’ll get better power supplies and if I hear nothing, they’ll go b... | |
| Why do I need a switch? @mitch2 Okay, So, I’ll have to use the Powerline adapter and have the boxed between it and the streamer. Knowing i have thirty day to return everything, I’m going to give it a try. Heck, I can even plug the warts into the power conditioner. | |
| Why do I need a switch? @mitch2 One more question, do you have the converters before your router or plugged into one of its outputs. I’d have to put it before the router because I mostly do WiFi. Otherwise I have to use a netgear Powerline adapter. NETGEAR Powerline a... | |

| Custom Window Sound Blockers The did a knock down across the street and are building two houses and the noise has been annoying, to say the least. We have vertical blinds on the three windows and they don’t cut it! | |
| where and how to find blank "music" CD's Live and learn! I’ve made thousands of music CD’s on a computer and never heard of digital music CD’s. I even had a commercial CD copier. Do music CD’s sound sound any different? | |
| Home audio or pro audio? Long ago, I worked with pro audio and found it very much like home audio in a lot of cases. We bi or tri amped everything, but never had a need for fancy power or cables. When you’re filling a hall at a convention center, no one is going to hear... | |
| Why do I need a switch? @markprice Thanks for the reply. After reading a bit more and listening to the video that @jjss49 provided, I’m guessing that the difference is that switch’s have clocks in them and are reclocking the signal and that’s making the sound differenc... | |
| Why do I need a switch? @mitch2 Thanks for your reply, I screwed up. The part above about getting the ifi power was supposed to be for you. I’m going to order A Pair of 1.25G/s Bidi Gigabit Multi-Mode Fiber Ethernet Media Converter with 2PCS Bidi SFP LC Dual Transcei... | |

| Why do I need a switch? @8th-note Thanks for the reply. yes I have a CD transport, An Audiolab 6000cdt, and yes sometimes I can hear differences between the CDT and the streamer, but sometimes the disk is better than the streamer. I have also noticed that the sound i... |
