| Bryston BDP-pi I've been using Roon with my BDP-1 for a year and it's fantastic. It's been completely stable. I much prefer Roon's interface over Bryston's Manic Moose or any other third party MPD controller or full blown music management like Audirvana Plus and... | |

| Do I need higher quality power cords? So anyone wants to answer my question from above?I have 14 AWG running inside the wall. I have a Torus plugged into it with a short 14 AWG cable. If I use short 14 AWG power cables for everything, how am I being limited in power, especially for lo... | |
| Do I need higher quality power cords? I have a Torus for my gear. I use stock unshielded power cables. I've tried using stock shielded cables and I didn't like them. I did later find out that the drain wire was connected on both sides. That makes sense.I've read people recommending sh... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? @vtech2000 Hello Brad,Do you individually measure each of your cables on a tester (e.g. Fluke) and include the results? Have you by any chance examined signal integrity and PHY power consumption with your cables?Have you compared different lengths... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? When it comes to any shielded cables with metal plugs and shield attached to the ground, you most likely will hear a difference. You are breaking the galvanic isolation. It can sound better initially. Things will sound smoother, less grainy, darke... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? The BDP-1 doesn't have a toslink output...I'm not sure if we're both on the same page about what we're discussing. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? Hello @acepilot71,I'm not sure what you are referring to specifically (what page/section) in that review?I use Roon and connect my BDP-1 via ethernet which further feeds my DAC.When I use the BDP-1's native MPD software and play music off a direct... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? If one thinks noise is an issue, they can and should test for that. Whether they think the problem is noise getting inside the ethernet cable or the noise getting out of the ethernet cable.I personally haven't found noise as discussed above, to be... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? For ethernet cables, I'd try putting LONG Cat6 UTP ethernet cables for each link. Think 10-15 meters for each individual link. Shielded cables that are grounded might make things sound better initially, like more resolution/details or smoother sou... |
