Network optimization for serious streamers Hi @agisthos, At the switch end I use four JCAT M12 Gold cables (two came with the M12). These are 2m each. They go to my Modem, the Nucleus and both systems. To extend the LAN to my music areas, I use the Supra Cat 8. I connect the M12 Gold c... | |
Network optimization for serious streamers Good Morning @agisthos, First, I believe the JCAT M12 Gold is similar / related to / modified??? Telegartner Japan switch. I found out much about it on the What's Best Audio forum. I even hear there is a newer version of the M12 coming, but I... | |
Network optimization for serious streamers Hello @agisthos, I am not ready to pay big money for an audiophile switch. They seem to just be repurposed consumer switches in a fancy case with a linear power supply and sometimes clock upgrade. You could probably get the same grade of switch ... | |
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? Hello @nyev @lalitk and others! I have ordered my Grimm MU 1. It will be paired with my Mola Mola Tambaqui. I have an Elation KS AES coming as well. The Grimm will replace my Nucleus + , and I will move my Aries G2.1 to my Makua based syst... | |
Best Server To Run Roon Core Hello @lalitk , 100% agree! I would keep my Muon Pro and M12 in front of MU1. The Grimm would run Roon Core (Server) and AES (Streamer) into my Tambaqui, and also serve to my second system's streamer via LAN. Only downside is not being able t... | |
Best Server To Run Roon Core Hello, tonight I was able to do a head to head comparison of the original Muon Filter System and the new Muon Pro filter System. Using my Mola Mola Makua (the Makua is an amazing pre-amp with optional onboard Tambaqui DAC and Streamer), Audione... | |
Best Server To Run Roon Core @lalitk, Hello! I now have my Muon Pro Streaming System (which means includes the second cable, which is by the way distinct for the Pro version). Recall I have Gateway 1100 Verizon Modem > JCAT M12 gold cable > M12 Gold Switch w/ Jcat O... | |
Best Server To Run Roon Core @sns Thanks. I misspoke here; I have USB hard drive and Ethernet into Nucleus+, and Ethernet out to my Switch and streamer. @lalitk Thanks, I have heard good things about Wolf. My Nucleus is working fine, but I have a history of issues and repa... | |

Best Server To Run Roon Core @lalitk so if I have a fairly optimized system running Roon core on a Nucleus+, and desire usb input and output, what should I consider as a core only upgrade? | |

Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System The Waversa Roon Core looks interesting as well. But I use a usb attached Raid Hard Drive for my music storage vs network attached so this would not be compatible? I would like to consider upgrading my Roon Core. But I think I need only a core... | |
Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System Hello @lalitk and all, As you know I also have the M12 Gold switch, and agree it is amazing, especially with the JCAT power supply. I also have the Muon Filter System x 2. (Two systems) I had them prior to the M12, and simply kept them inline a... | |
2 X Rel Carbons Incoming. Advice on powering? I have pair of the Limiteds, and a pair of the Specials. IMHO plugging directly into your dedicated outlet is fine. And, yes the Baseline blue and highlevel is the way to go. Start by turning the filter all the way down, and the volume very low... | |
DAC recommendations Seems to me that if you want better sound Air Play is not the way to go about it. Make at least a trial jump to Qobuz. |
