Which cable has most impact - IC, Spkr., power?
To me it is pretty simple, the speaker cables are the most important, and subject to most interference, second is the interconnects, then last the power cable.  now, if you were not using balanced ICs, maybe there is a more equal split between sp... 
Ethernet streaming
@thyname no one has made idiotic claims about imaginary network performance improvements in this thread yet, so nothing to debunk.   I use a streamer / player (nad m50.2) and the DAC in my preamp (Classe delta Pre) and connect the two with AES/E... 
I have perfected my network for the nth time
@cleeds first, I have posted facts, other have made fantastical claims (change the direction of your Ethernet cable and your 5k system will sound like a 50k system! (Slight exaggeration, but to the point)).   second, I am not an prosecutor, nor ... 
I have perfected my network for the nth time
Here is why reclocking of Ethernet cannot work: Most DACs include asynchronous clock recovery and data buffering to isolate the actual DAC inside the box from the incoming data stream. This isolates the DAC itself (the thing inside the box that ...

@kennyc  We have established two things: 1) you know nothing about networking and you still assert yourself as an expert 2) we have not discussed anything except fictional networking here, so no conclusions can be drawn about anything else.    ...

@earthbound we know everything about Ethernet and TCP/IP, not 99.99% of people of on this forum, but as humans we have all the knowledge related to these protocols. Why? We designed them. Comparing Astrophysics to something we designed is just sil...

@antigrunge2 there cannot be any reclocking of the signal. That is not how it works, plain and simple. It is impossible, and has been debunked so many times.  
Ethernet connection for best sound quality
@cleeds but should they, really? Look at this thread, someone wants to get started with streaming, and it took five posts or so before people started with the “you must have audiophile Ethernet products”.

@antigrunge2 thank you for stopping, no one needs to read fictional “white papers” that have been debunked.   
Ethernet connection for best sound quality
@akg_ca but you are utterly unqualified to do any test like that, so it is garbage. It would like saying I did randomized control trial of the weight loss drug, sure, I did it, but it doesn’t mean anything because I am not qualified to conduct su... 
I have perfected my network for the nth time
@kennyc like everyone knew, you have no relevant experience, and you can’t poke a hole in even a basic high level description of how Ethernet works.  and yet you go on about self worth and other completely unrelated topics, so who is it that real... 
Ethernet connection for best sound quality
@akg_ca stop linking that same garbage article. Just because because you post it everywhere doesn’t make it true.  
Ethernet connection for best sound quality
@antigrunge2 that “white paper” is a joke and has been debunked many times over. In fact, John Swenson has been ridiculed when he was forced to admit he made up a bunch of terms that mean nothing.   
I have perfected my network for the nth time
@mahgister i have seen your pictures and read about your system, and it is a very interesting approach. I have no idea about any theory behind any of what you have done, not my area of expertise. But I think that is a system worth listening to. t... 
I have perfected my network for the nth time
@mahgister no, defined by how Ethernet, TCP/IP, and streaming works. Has nothing to do with my education and experience, I did not design these protocols, I merely practice the a living. The facts are that there is no theoretical improvement poss...
