My Experience With Tekton @seamaster300m I have no opinion to share or offer on Tekton. They fill a need and many who have them are happy. That's terrific. Your comments about Tone Imports, however, are unfortunate. They have brought to our shores a great many pro... | |
Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @kennyc Indeed, their main board supplier. | |
Etheregen - doesn't seem right that it gets so hot, dangerous? Unpredictable? Maybe not in mass quantities nor from the website….he hand builds them five at a time. Parts supplies are very limited. | |
Etheregen - doesn't seem right that it gets so hot, dangerous? Unpredictable? The Ether Regen is a superb switch with a single, really clean 100mbps ethernet port. It does a fine job. Think of doing nothing as being in neutral for your car’s transmission. The Ether Regen is first gear. Adding a Network Acoustics Eno filter ... | |
Etheregen - doesn't seem right that it gets so hot, dangerous? Unpredictable? @jumia Yes, the ether regen works very well. The question is, do you have the kinds of problems that the ether regen addresses? So many of us look to certain products with the expectation that it will "make things better". What if you have a ver... | |

Etheregen - doesn't seem right that it gets so hot, dangerous? Unpredictable? @jumia Retired this thing after about a year and quite frankly I have a very revealing system and I don't notice any difference whatsoever. Please share | |
Upstream Bottlenecks, Experience, Opinions, Meitner Dac @bigwave1 all you need to connect to the ma3 is an ethernet cable. You dont need the usb cable. It access file on your local network over ethernet. | |
Upstream Bottlenecks, Experience, Opinions, Meitner Dac The MA3 to my ears sounds better through its internal streamer/renderer than it does being streamed/rendered TO via usb from a good streamer/renderer. Same ethernet chain. | |
Etheregen - doesn't seem right that it gets so hot, dangerous? Unpredictable? @jumia The EtherRegen runs hot. The designer said it would and it does. The designer also said it would improve the ethernet feed and it does. I've had mine several years, works flawlessly. You are certainly justified to not get one if you be... | |
Upstream Bottlenecks, Experience, Opinions, Meitner Dac @bigwave1 @sns With all respect and due deference to @sns and his demonstrated expertise with optimizing the Mac Mini, the Mac Mini is far from an optimal solution as either a server or a streamer today. It was a wonderful solution 10 years... | |
Good Ethernet switch Can rfi/emi/electrical noise affect an analog signal transmitted over a cable? | |
Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @lalitk No worries, I didn’t take it that way. I’m actually thinking more long term. I would prefer to purify at the earliest possible point. @grannyring I concur on the Ether Regen. Its a great device and is really quite an achievment. Fo... | |
Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @pokey77 Are you using an LPS with the Rubicon or the supplied wall wart? If LPS, are you using an upgraded power cord too? The Rubicon actually ships from Network Acoustics with the well regarded iFi iPower Elite. As for power cables, I trie... | |
