| Network optimization for serious streamers @cowhorn I went from 300 to 500gb. Yes, I did hear improvement, whether this due to increased speed alone or due to required move to 1gb capable modem in combo I can't say. @grannyring $3k for internal parts, case and passive cooling packages ... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @lalitk I can only say the two prior owners of my streamer, builder and subsequent owner compared my streamer to many of the best plug n play streamers on market, one of the last and best compared to was Aurender W20SE, both preferred this build t... | |
| Solid core OFC vs stranded OCC copper Well, if we're discussing sound qualities, a little this, a little that, I use combos of everything and various metals as well. I'd say vast majority of what I have in entire system is litz. | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers Meant to say 3% on the cores. | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @thieliste That's somewhat worrisome, although could be caused by any number of things. I do have 500gb service with modem/router close to audio system, high quality LAN cables, little or no processing going on with Roon, generally running at less... | |
| Anyone tried fiber into EtherRegen SFP? These upgraded transceivers are not guaranteed to work with all optical devices, may be ok to try with cheaper generic FMC, may not want to spend big on optical component only to find the Finisar doesn't work with your equipment. There is AfterDar... | |
| Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System Obviously the same number of LAN/ethernet cables so possibility of rfi entry through connectors exactly the same. The differences are more signal loss with long runs of ethernet vs coax, also best quality LAN/ethernet cable becomes affordable with... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @jerryg123 You found good price, no stock at $100 price suppliers. I suspect there was run on these based on some of these audiophile forums. Just posted the following on another thread. For those who have ethernet ISP and go optical conversio... | |
| Anyone tried fiber into EtherRegen SFP? Issue is if one doesn't have optical input on streamer and optical ISP we're converting ethernet to optical back to ethernet. So consider optimized ethernet> optimized optical> optimized ethernet. This would be something like router or switc... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers Hope we're back on track! @singingg Thanks for sharing. I seem to recall reading on some forums that various boutique LAN cables not running ground on both ends, why I mentioned in previous post Cat 7 not always grounded both ends. Even though... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers Why I mentioned previously, no longer engage in cable arguments. Intention is at issue, simply presenting experiential evidence or having need for people to agree with you. One exposes psychological processes usurping free and open discussion.... | |
| Anyone tried fiber into EtherRegen SFP? Lots of trade offs both theoretically and in actual listening. I've compared optical and ethernet on both sides of two streamer setups, where first streamer used only as server, SOTM and OpticalRendu used as streamers. Also with only one streamer,... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers When threads become bogged down in arguments and are no longer productive they die, people quit following them. This is intentional act by the provocateur, have need to deny full and open discussion. People want to read threads that constantly... | |
| Audiphile Press: Am I jaded, experienced, or has it declined? @cleeds Very good info. Everything aligns with what I expected, with one major exception. Average cost of audio system at only $18K, wow, that's really surprising to me! Seems this is aspirational read for many, I assumed readers already there. Bu... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @thieliste Does sound change over time with these, in other words is burn in issue? How do all these compare to stock transciever in OM? Like to know what to expect and how sound quality may change over time. Just feel I'm in perfectly neutral po... |
