I have an SR Red 3.15amp fuse available...   Roberts all gone  
Uptone Audio EtherREGEN review
Have ended up buying a modified switch from Hans at AudioPhool.nl   He claims it is as good if not better than the EtherRegen. This I may never know, as I no longer plan on buying one. If it's even close, i'm going to be happy.  
Uptone Audio EtherREGEN review
@jc51373  I take no heed of reviews from ASR. They are about as far away from the reality of musical enjoyment as I believe you can get. My (soon to be previous) Dac was trashed by them, but it has taken my listening pleasure to heights I didn't... 
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
My purples finally arrived today. I need to remember to not order from the UK in December. 24 days to arrive. @ted_denney  You say I can put them in amp/Dac, power them up but don't need music playing through them?   I once knew a Robert...  
RIP oregonpapa
When I log on, it always comes up on his last discussion. His passing has shaken me, and it continues.   RIP indeed.  
To extend Ethernet to remote location, are Powerline extenders or Mesh systems better?
Those network adaptors look promising. Will look at installing one next year.   No Robert here

Flat roof from modem to stereo means I cannot install ethernet cable. I do however have cable that used to run Sky Cable to a T-Box for my TV. Also have a coax cable installed, that I never used. Are either of these cables able to run internet to... 
How do you explain audiophiles to your friends?
An idea of some of the things people didn’t/don’t understand   When CDs came in and I still used vinyl... When home theatre systems were popular, and I remained two channel... When CD players had an inbuilt Dac, and mine was seperate... When ... 
How do you explain audiophiles to your friends?
I can't, as they don't understand any of it. Friends, family, work colleagues.   I usually end up (with any of my equipment) saying "it's supposed to..."   I'm not Robert  
Streamer - if I can't get a CA Azur 851n then what?
@canibefrank  Let us know if you managed to nab the Cambridge Azur.  
Need your streaming expertise!
And the Project Stream Box Ultra 2 was perfect for what I needed, a good footprint and well reviewed.

I'd considered buying one of the SMSL network players. Decided not to, since I didn't need the Dac which is built into these units.  
Need your streaming expertise!
I have to be wireless, due to a flat roof, and system is 10 metres from the router. Had been streaming Tidal from a MacBook Pro to Dac with a Halide Bridge, or Bluetooth via an iFi Zen Blue via iPhone. Have since replaced this with a Project Str... 
To extend Ethernet to remote location, are Powerline extenders or Mesh systems better?
...it sounds bad, thin, edgy, image is in a letterbox between the speakers That doesn't sound promising. Hopefully the switch I've bought will begin reducing the noise. Then considering a SOtM Cat6 Isolation Filter, or Acoustic Revive LAN isola...

Will have a listen to this. If there is noise, the switch I'm getting has optical, which I've read is a way to eliminate noise.
