| Dreamin' of streamin' Before moving to a streamer and Qobuz, I was using Tidal and iTunes on a MacBook Pro. It was suggested I use a Halide Bridge USB SPIDF converter. Second hand, very reasonable. A decent improvement. | |
| Jackson Browne live on Circle I can’t help you, sorry. But saw him live a couple of months ago. Damn, he was fantastic! | |
| Update on good Ethernet switch @kennyc Teradak has a couple of all-in-one solutions as well | |
| $50k - $80k Budget…Opinions please. I see you have a dedicated power line. I’ve read where two seperate power runs, one for digital, one for analogue has worked. Have a look at that as a possibility. Would also investigate a power conditioner. Puritan PSM 156 is getting positiv... | |
| Use of Switch to Improve Streaming Quality After much research, it was between the Sablon 2020 and TWL Freedom Ethernet cables. | |
| Use of Switch to Improve Streaming Quality The switches were updated with a Fidelity Audio clock in the UK and Audiophool mods in the Netherlands. I was looking for items around the $400-$600 mark, switch included. many different ways to do this, and plenty of opinions to sift through. | |

| Use of Switch to Improve Streaming Quality I have one modded network switch from modem to router, 10m of Cat5 Ethernet cable (which I can’t change), another modded network switch with two LAN isolators to my streamer. All pieces on decent linear power supplies. Meicord Opal Ethernet cabl... | |
| Stack Audio Auva speaker isolators They are on their way. | |
| Stack Audio Auva speaker isolators @wlp3 That's good news. I've only got a week to wait. Certainly curious the effect they have on stand mounts. The Sound Anchors stands I bought a couple of weeks ago are well thought of, and have certainly improved things. Nice speakers you have. | |
| Ethernet Switch- what's the point? @milpai I read recently in these instances a long run of optical cable using an ethernet media converter at each end ensures no unwanted noise inserted along the length. | |
| Ethernet Switch- what's the point? Or perhaps just shove off? | |
| Stack Audio Auva speaker isolators @roxy54 I am sceptical of many things. How can that possibly make an audible difference? I’ve had to eat my words (or really, my thoughts) a few times. The biggest was system supports. Had sorbothane and Vibrapods. Couldn’t really tell the diff... |
