Power supply for ethernet switch?
I just noticed Network Acoustics is now shipping their Tempus switch with an upgraded power supply.  
Hegel hum?
I would think and hope no hum is normal and desired.  
what is more popular silver or black face plates
I like the look of black so much I wrapped my silver Tambaqui DAC in black vinyl!  
Subs?
+1 on two subs, so size might be predicated on space available and cost.  That being said, ideally I would take two 12" subs over two 10" subs.  I am a REL fan, based on experience, sound  and reliability.  There are many reports here of JL reliab... 
Streamer vs Directstream Memory Player
Hello @gnaudio ,  First, I completely agree that the Streamer is very essential and will can vastly improve the sound of digital, just as a quality DAC.  As an example, the wonderful Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC, while housing a decent renderer, is no m... 
Wattgate IEC does not fit tight.
Not sure about the Wattgates, but these inexpensive 'iec inlet tighteners work for a variety of PC / components and are easy  to try: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0771T7PC9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title    
Using both balanced and single ended outputs at the same time?
Well you always have to adjust the sub (s) volume.  This is not a negative nor an issue.  
Using both balanced and single ended outputs at the same time?
No doubt @erik_squires ,  I was surprised to learn Audionet strongly recommended single ended connections.  I too like the lock of the balanced cables.  I do bump my K-S Realization cables loose sometimes, and have to keep and eye on that.  But th... 
Using both balanced and single ended outputs at the same time?
+1 @elliottbnewcombjr , I will add that my with my Audionet equipment, they strongly recommend single ended (rca) cables.  My understanding is that this avoids op transformers to convert the balanced cables back to single ended, which can only deg... 
Using both balanced and single ended outputs at the same time?
Hello @boonaroo ,  I believe that is fine to  do.  it is similar to a RCA output labeled subwoofer out, and is full range.    
Power supply for ethernet switch?
Guy asking about exact same items other guy previously bought.  Seems sort of appropriate to reply.  Guy lending experience and trying to be helpful.   No need for new guy to be so cynical.  :)  
Power supply for ethernet switch?
Hello @kingbr , I do understand.  And some years ago I would have said the exact same thing :)  I do have a suggestion; before buying the fibre conversion stuff, try a Tempus on 30 day trial.  You may be surprised at what you hear!  And, as I foun... 
Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers
Congrats @deadhead1000 , You should listen to the Vivid Giya's.  
Power supply for ethernet switch?
Hello @mclinnguy , great question. I bought the M12 and Optimo a few years ago.  Later, NA came out with the Tempus and I had talked with Rich at NA about it, so I wanted to try it.  I bought it with a 30 day trial.  I think they are very compara... 
Power supply for ethernet switch?
Hello @kingbr , Like you I came from a Netgear switch.  I upgraded to the English Electric Bonn 8 and also an EtherRegen.  While I think these helped, it was marginal.  I sold both and bought a JCAT M12 Gold switch and oh my nice upgrade.  Then I...
