| Network optimization for serious streamers You guys should try this LAN cable, spectacular! | |
| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend How good is the preamp part of the MPD-8 ? Could this drive Audionet Heisenberg Monoblocks without any frustration ? | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @lollipopguild It's actually 1421P1BTL but it's not the best one. You should get 1318P3BTL, it's the one i'm using very close to 1475 highly resolving. If you want more musical, creamier than go for Finisar 1324P2BTL or Cisco 10G. For Finisar a... | |
| Thiel Owners Guys i’ll give you my take on the Gaia II footers onces i receive them, my distributor didn’t have the right threading for my 3.7 this is why i have to wait another 3-4 weeks. | |
| Thiel Owners I use an AQ Niagara 3000 but only for my sources and LPS, amplification straight into the wall is best with good Furutech wall outlet. I have thick curtains in front of my 2 glass doors. | |
| Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k I have a streaming only rig consisting of a fanless Roon Rock NUC powered by a Farad Super 3 LPS, Paul Pang Quad Switch, 2 FMCs one being the Sonore Optical module Deluxe V2 both FMCs powered by LPS, Aqua LinQ streamer with HQPlayer core module, A... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers I own those upraded Finisar offered by Sonore, i was not impressed at all and therefore do not use them anymore they are far behind 1475 and 1318. I would be tempted to try out the Startech SFP1000ZXST if anyone has compared them please share. | |
| Thiel Owners @lloydviii Cardas Clear Reflection is a great choice for Thiel speakers but there are many others like Audience. | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers Yesterday been comparing Finisar 1421BTL, 1324BTL and 1318BTL. I much prefer 1318 over the other 2, it is much more resolving, has more slam and a wider soundstage. 1318 is basically at the same level as 1475 IMO, 1318 can still be purchased new... | |
| Streaming – Discovering Similar or New Music Definitely Roon with Qobuz and Tital subcriptions. I don't like proprietary apps. | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @sns Just to let you know i've had a lot of drop outs lately using the Finisar 1475 paired with the Sonore Optical module. Since 1475 is SFP+ there might be incompatibility problems with Sonore optical gear ? Anyway i went back to Finisar 1318 a... | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @sns Yes they do sound a little harsh in the first few days, within 2 weeks they are well burned in. I do have stock SFPs and find them really bad compared to some of the best Finisars. | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @sns That’s right most resolving and precise are the Finisar 1318 and even more the 1475. Cisco is creamy and musical and not very resolving. Most liquid sounding is the Finisar 1321. I use Phoenix Contact glass fiber single mode. | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers I use a generic optical module from Afterdak and a Sonore optical module Deluxe v2 between my Paul Pang Quad Switch and my Aqua LinQ streamer. Both optical modules are on LPS. Ethernet cables are the Pink Faun Lan cables and will add some FTA Me... | |
| Thiel Owners @lloydviii Welcome, what amp do you plan on using to drive your 3.7s ? |
