| Wifi vs ethernet revisited @debrajray I use Cisco from Afterdark Audio because I havent got around to Finisar. @sns I used to have those concerns and avoided wifi. Then I spent some time with Auralic Aries G1, tried my best wired solution with daisy chained ERs and Gigafo... | |
| Wifi vs ethernet revisited Hi folks The topic caught my attention, and I'm glad it did and I read thru to the latest post. There were many things I read I had a xomment in mind, but too many to remember, so this is more general. Firstly, I use WiFi to connect to my Dev... | |
| An Audio Conversation with ChatGPT Ive been tinkering with AI: ChatGTP, Gemini and CoPilot. ChetGTP gave a quite informed and refined answer, which indicates the OP has built up a ’memory’ in ChatGTP of similar enquiries from to and fro interrogating its responses from which ChatG... | |
| Best Dedicated Streamer Just some observations that might be helpful to consider. It seems the best results from streaming are achieved via reclocking the digital output and serving up the cleanest, lowest jitter and distortion signal to the DAC. The magic is in the co... | |
| Busted! Reviewer copies manufacturers sales page in review? Media containing so-called reviews are mostly motivated to make the reader want what they don't have, maybe not now but eventually. Curiosity leads to purchase, and the spending of money continues the cycle. Marketing copy is the same. Both re... | |

| Basic switch....should I upgrade? @sns If you are not already aware, the SFP modules and FMC make a difference. Some people even say single mode is better than multi mode and the length makes a difference. But one thing for sure, fibre does not collect or transmit noise. In my n... | |
| Basic switch....should I upgrade? "Went back to fiber optic cable and now I think that sounds cleaner.' It seems to me ... Noise = distortion = color So No noise = no distortion = colorless = clean There are plenty of other things between the streamer and speakers (and your... | |
| Basic switch....should I upgrade? There is some great info in this discussion, and not heated. In answer to the openning post question is that my experience has been; Replacing existing switches with better/audiophile switches can improve sound quality Minimising noise in each... | |
| Does a REL subwoofer make the speakers' job easier? In answer to the original question, a sub can make the main speaker job easier if it is crossed over with high and low pass filters (full crossover). This way the mains are not receiving bass frequencies and can deliver cleaner upper bass and midr... | |
| Ethernet - Analog/Digital Signal Clean Up Hi, just a little chime in here ... Bang for buck you really must try a legit SFP+ switch. There is a topic on Audiophile style that gets into why. I use Mikrotik CRS 305 which I configured as my router Also, some streamers with wifi are extreme... |
