| Audio PC @milpai Check out JCAT, you may find few parts worth the consideration. Good luck! https://jcat.eu/product-category/music-server-upgrades/ | |
| Just got a new Bluesound Node. Very disappointed! @ozzy62 Funny how SQ improved with Lumin U1 over Node ….after all it’s a computer passing digital 1’s and 0’s 🤣 | |
| Music Server/DAC – Ethernet, USB, S/PDIF, AES3 or I2S. @sns I have long admired and valued Ed’s contributions. That’s one argument to have clock close to its circuit for best performance but I can’t stress enough the improvements in precision and realism one hears from a SOTA external clock, assumin... | |
| Music Server/DAC – Ethernet, USB, S/PDIF, AES3 or I2S. Agree with @ghdprentice …good article that shows clear path to SOTA streaming setup. One thing this article didn’t address is ‘cleaning’ up Ethernet signal before it reaches your local server / streamer. Everything matters, Choose wisely :-) | |

| Are You Happy With Your Phono Preamp? +1, @ghdprentice On synergy between ARC 3 and Ref 6, it’s like two peas in a pod. I used to own all ARC system (Pre, DAC and AMP) there is this unmistakable synergy in a all ARC system, they should come with a warning: no outsiders allowed 🤣 | |
| Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @metaldetektor Thanks for posting your impressions about MU1 superior noise rejection capabilities to any external transmission noise on Ethernet line. What is your current DAC? | |
| Just got a new Bluesound Node. Very disappointed! @last_lemming Beyond the basic troubleshooting, there are plenty of threads here on how to get best possible sound from BSN. If you’re new to streaming, there is a bit of learning curve (probably not as deep as your analog) so you need to be pat... | |
| Supra Cat 8 Ethernet cable +1, @audphile1 …Let the Supra break-in for 100 hours before you make any more changes! | |
| Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality “I would prefer to purify at the earliest possible point”. @ghasley I couldn’t agree with you anymore. A high quality switch + filter in digital streaming are no longer considered accessories, IME they are essential components in a high resoluti... | |
| Good Ethernet switch “I would personally complete the trio and get the PhoenixNet.” +1, @thyname Couple of more alternatives that are competing favorably against PhoenixNet, Network Acoustics Rubicon switch at $2400. SOtM sNH-10G High-End Audio Switch Hub at $1700... | |
| Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @ghasley I wasn’t trying to downplay the legitimacy of NA gear when I reiterated Hans B initial impressions of minor improvements with MU1. I was taken aback by his comment about superior noise rejection capabilities of MU1 Ethernet board :-) I... | |
| Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @ghasley Thanks for taking the time to post your system. That’s quite a system you got there…and I can certainly imagine the ‘upgrade’ from Uptone ER. I believe Grimm’s MU1 is going to be a game changer for you, I heard nothing but high praises.... | |
| Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @ghasley I am glad to hear you’re ‘Godsmacked’ by the improvements from Rubicon/Muon. Would you mind outlining components in your digital streaming? I think it would be beneficial for readers to fully comprehend such high level of commitment. Th... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? “Why spend a ton more on a Streamer or DAC to get the same performance that a low cost USB dongle gives you? ” @vinylfan62 Except it doesn’t, I have tried and tested many tweaks in my system. Again, not saying they don’t improve the sound but a ... |
